Lenovo posts a specs-ref for the new Legion 5 Pro ahead of its release

[Redaktion]

Lenovo announced that the Legion 5 Pro will be updated in 2021 with Ryzen 5000 silicon, RTX 30-series graphics and a 16:10 display. A Google-cached product specs reference let slip by the company ahead of its March release seems to confirm this, as well as how much RAM and storage space the machine can support.

Gila start at 1000 dolar? Dengan spek gahar begitu mulai dari 14 juta???

Already looks better than Asus, but the 80Wh battery is a bit small for a "Pro" laptop.

Anyone having PSREF for sister laptop Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro 16"?

ETA on review?

So sad lenovo abandoned JBL and removed Subwoofer from their previous and next gen.
They should not reduce the sound quality in their gaming machine.

Lost interest in Lenovo Legion after they like almost all other laptop maker removed the dedicated touchpad buttons after Legion Y740. Now I will get ASUS TUF Gaming A15 AMD version for its touchpad buttons and ThinkPad L15 for its TrackPoint buttons.

This is looking promising. First laptop that ticks nearly all my boxes. Weird that it's a clunky gaming laptop with silly RGB lights, but don't care really.

AMD, a reasonable GPU, Ethernet, not just stupid USB ports, a separate DC input, bright non-glossy 16:10 screen with good colourspace coverage at the right PPI. All I want except for having a Trackpoint and I can deal with that. Keyboard is off-centre because a numpad had to be squeeze in, but whatever. Assuming RAM and SSD are replaceable, this might be it, unless something better comes out by March or whenever you can actually buy this one. The Ideapad 5 Pro 16ACH-6 seemed similar in spec and potentially less of a clunkertronic case.

Also looking forward to a review of this! Or just give me one and I'll write it :)

I'm so looking forward to buy one.... I hope it won't be sold out... Will the version with RTX 3060 more than €1000?

[ChinaLiedPeopleDied]

The Legion 5 (AMD Ryzen 7 5800H + RTX 3070, 8GB VRAM) is liated as €1600 on compare.eu and Amazon.de
RTX 3060, 6GB VRAM listed as €1500.

If the Legion 5 Pro has the same 1.5mm key travel as Legion 5, then I could consider it unless the price is over €1700.

Note that the 2020 Legion 5 (4800H + RTX 2060, 6GB VRAM) went for £950 on ebuyer and €1200 on CampusPoint

The Ryzen 7 5800H + 3070 with 32GB Ram and 512GB SSD Lenovo Legion 5 Pro is listed on a French website (fnac.com) for 2199 euros right now and available from March 15th. That's a very steep price... This website is known for having a fairly high pricing so I'm sure you could get one for a bit less elsewhere but it's going to be a very expensive machine nonetheless.
