Are there any alternatives?
Most gaming laptops at this price can’t compare with what the Legion 5 Pro offers. The Predator Triton 500 SE matches the screen size, but is limited to just an RTX 3060.The two biggest competitors to the Legion 5 Pro are from Asus. The all-AMD ROG Strix G15 is the ultimate value gaming laptop, while the ROG Zephyrus G15 matches the Legion 5 Pro in nearly ever spec for the same price. It doesn’t have as good of screen, but the Zephyrus G15 has a sleeker design and options for up to an RTX 3080.
How long will it last?
The Lenovo Legion 5 Pro should last you at least five years. It’s a capable gaming laptop that should be able to handle the latest AAA games for many years.
