The new Lenovo Legion laptops are built for today’s on-the-go gamer who travels light.

Made of precisely machined aluminum and anodized in a sophisticated Iron Gray, the Lenovo Legion Y730 Laptop showcases ultrathin borders around its full HD IPS display. Meanwhile, the Raven Black Lenovo Legion Y530 Laptop has a subtle but compelling top cover texture that radiates out from the “O” in its Legion emblem. The new laptops come fully-equipped with up to NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GPUs, up to the latest 8th Gen Intel Core= i7 processors and Windows 10. Their keyboards are made to offer under 1ms input response time – designed to deliver that split-second advantage in competition.
