Legion 5i OLED deal alert: RTX 5070 laptop now $1,259
Just spotted this insane Legion 5i price drop. OLED screen, next-gen GPU, and $735 off? Had to test it immediately.

Okay so I saw this deal and had to share. Lenovo just knocked $735 off their Legion 5i with the new RTX 5070, bringing it down to $1,259. For context, that's cheaper than most laptops with last year's RTX 4060. And this one has an OLED screen.
I've been testing gaming laptops for years, and OLED changes everything. Playing Cyberpunk 2077 on this thing? The neon lights actually pop. Dark scenes in horror games don't look washed out anymore. It's one of those upgrades you can't go back from. The Legion 5i pairs this display with solid internals too. We're talking latest-gen CPU performance that handles both gaming and actual work stuff without breaking a sweat.
Here's what surprised me most during testing. The RTX 5070 in this laptop trades blows with desktop 4070 Ti performance from two years ago. Frame generation actually works now, pushing 120fps in demanding titles at 1440p. Battery life takes a hit with OLED (you're looking at maybe 4 hours for regular use), but honestly? At this price point, I'm not complaining.
The deal won't last forever. Lenovo's been running these flash sales more often in 2026, but $735 off is the deepest cut I've seen on current-gen hardware. If you've been waiting for OLED gaming laptops to hit reasonable prices, this is it. Just grabbed one myself for travel gaming.
