Editorial Notes

The Legion 5i 16 Gen 10 brings Intel Core Ultra 7 275HX (Arrow Lake HX) with RTX 5070 Laptop GPU to Lenovo's 2025 mainstream Intel gaming line. Arrow Lake HX delivers improved efficiency over Raptor Lake Refresh HX predecessors while maintaining high sustained multi-thread performance with 20 cores. Thunderbolt 4 continues for dock compatibility. Wi-Fi 7 standard. The Intel-platform gaming laptop for users committed to Intel infrastructure.

Swiss Market

Expected at Digitec and Brack in the CHF 1700–2100 range at launch. Intel variant carries a premium over AMD equivalent — Thunderbolt 4 and Intel ecosystem compatibility justify this for Swiss corporate users with existing dock setups.
