Gaming laptops used to be these massive, chunky things that had terrible battery life and wouldn’t even be able to play the latest games without warming your whole house by a few degrees. Luckily, nowadays, you can get a thin and light gaming laptop that can handle the latest games with no issue if you’re willing to pay the price. If that’s the case, then we highly recommend the Legion 9i Gen 9, which we gave perfect marks on, and even has a solid $540 discount directly from Lenovo. That means you can grab one of the best gaming laptops for $3,300 instead of the usual $3,840.
Why you should buy the Lenovo Legion 9i Gen 9
While there are a lot of configurations for the Legion 9i Gen 9, we found one that almost exactly matches the one our lead reviewer, Jacob Roach, checked out in person. He felt that “It’s the first high-end laptop I’ve ever touched that truly feels worth its premium price point. It focuses on being a good laptop as much as it focuses on peak performance, and it exceeds on both fronts.” The review unit had an RTX 4090, but this configuration has an RTX 4080, which is also quite powerful and will easily let you handle most modern games without too much hassle.
Of course, you do get a next-level screen in the form of a 16-inch 3.2K resolution panel, with a very impressive 165Hz refresh rate, although, admittedly, even the RTX 4090 would have trouble hitting the maximum of both of those with ease, so you’ll likely have to make a couple of compromises. In terms of CPU, you get an Intel Core i9-14900HX, which is actually a generation newer and better than the one in the review unit, and is one of the most powerful on the market across the board. You also get a really excellent 32GB of RAM, and a slightly less excellent 1TB of storage, although you could always upgrade that later or supplement them with one of these external hard drive deals.
Overall, this configuration of the Legion 9i Gen 9 is probably one of the
