Ascending Fresh Plateaus in Gaming
This latest Lenovo Legion cohort offers a game-changing suite of features that take users to a higher realm of performance. We’ve further optimized refined technologies such as the Lenovo Legion TrueStrike Keyboard, for instance, for professional gameplay and typing productivity. Inspired by Lenovo’s distinguished pedigree of keyboards characterized by snappy actuation, satisfying click-feel and superior key travel via its second transition curve design, the Lenovo Legion TrueStrike keyboards offer a gaming experience that’s touch sensitive and tangible. 100 percent anti-ghosting, sub-millisecond response times and ‘soft-landing’ switches that mimic deep keystrokes at the same force actuation level also combine to achieve uncanny precision.
And now, gamers can wring every ounce of performance out of their rigs through the next-generation thermal efficiencies of the Lenovo Legion Coldfront 2.0. Marking a new era in thermal management, Lenovo Legion Coldfront 2.0 represents an improved synergy of hardware and software that promotes better airflow, lower system temperatures, while keeping your Lenovo Legion laptop cool, quiet and slim. The advanced system now features Dual Burn support, which pushes the CPU and GPU to their in-game limits so that gamers can experience more predictable FPS (frames per second) without the need for thermal throttling. Meanwhile, these Lenovo Legion devices stay cool to the touch despite sustaining top speeds via an optimal cooling system design of tactically placed heat sinks that dissipate more heat away from the motherboard. Also integrated into the Lenovo Legion 7i and Lenovo Legion Y740Si are Vapor Chamber Cooling Systems to dispel heat as dual liquid crystal polymer fan systems cycle air with chilling efficiency. Finally, a multipoint sensor array works to cool down key components in anticipation of intense gameplay for a cooler and quieter experience.
Equally as important for gamers is battery, and that’s where Lenovo Legion truly over-indexes, integrating smarter power features to boost battery life and execute whisper-quiet operation. As part of Lenovo Vantage software, Hybrid Mode prolongs battery life by letting users manually disable their dedicated graphics processor when it’s not needed. Advanced Optimus, designed in collaboration with NVIDIA for select devices, also boosts battery life considerably by dynamically switching from the Integrated Graphic Processing Unit (iGPU) for more battery life, to the discrete NVIDIA GPU (dGPU) for higher FPS. Lenovo Q-Control 3.0 also lets users switch between three system voltage and fan speeds (Quiet, Balanced, Performance). Other power-enhancing features include Rapid Charge Pro (from 0 to 50 percent battery in 30 minutes) and a battery sip feature (instinctively releases power in small doses for more battery life consistency).
And as always, Lenovo Legion machines excel at capturing real-world immersion through its brilliant displays. This generation of Lenovo Legion makes the most of your display panel’s capabilities through Dolby Vision, which offers deeper blacks and brighter whites without washing out color and contrast, while up to 240hz refresh rates at under 1 ms response times are engineered for ultra-smooth cinematics without screen tearing or stuttering. New Lenovo Legion laptops with at least 300 nits of panel brightness or more can now achieve High Dynamic Range (HDR), so that even dramatic shadowed scenes in games and movies with high levels of black tones will show up vividly with more depth and dimension. Combined with 100 percent sRGB color accuracy, this results in truly life-like pictures.
Once again, Lenovo delivers a level of performance and immersion that keeps it the industry’s PC leader. All these new Lenovo Legion laptops plus the refreshed Lenovo Legion Y740Si laptop offer up to the latest 10th Gen Intel Core H-Series mobile processors for powerful performance. And for the first time in one of our gaming laptops, players can also opt for premium, high-performance AMD Ryzen 4000 H-Series Mobile Processors in the Lenovo Legion 5.
