Lenovo’s Legion 9i is getting a refresh with what are likely the beefiest specs money can buy today. The 10th-generation model brings a Core Ultra 9 295HX CPU and up to 192GB of DDR5 memory. Add to that, you get an option to choose a 3D display model with eye-tracking and a lenticular lens support. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
Lenovo Legion 9i Specifications
The Legion 9i comes with an 18-inch screen that supports both 2D and 3D content. In 2D mode, the panel reaches up to 4K resolution (3840 x 2400) and supports refresh rates as high as 240Hz. There’s also a 1920 x 1080 2D mode that boosts the refresh rate up to 440Hz.
Switch over to 3D, and the resolution drops to 1920 x 1200, but with the benefit of naked-eye 3D thanks to integrated eye-tracking and a lens array system. No glasses are required.
Lenovo says it supports up to 30 3D games through its in-house software, and the visual hardware is being pitched directly to digital artists, visual designers, and gamers working in stereoscopic environments.
Internally, the Legion 9i maxes out with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX CPU and NVIDIA’s latest RTX 5090 GPU. The laptop supports up to 192GB of RAM and as much as 8TB of SSD storage, which is split across four memory slots and four SSD bays. The base model ships with a standard 4K non-3D screen, but Lenovo is clearly pushing flexibility with its upgradable design.
You get plenty of connectivity options. There are two Thunderbolt 5 ports, four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports (three Type-A, one Type-C), HDMI 2.1, full-size SD card reader, Ethernet, Wi-Fi 7, and Bluetooth 5.4. The 2D model includes a 5MP f/2 webcam, while the 3D version uses a faster f/1.6 lens. Both cameras come with a privacy switch.
Physically, the Legion 9i features a carbon fiber lid made from eight individual layers, which Lenovo claims makes it lighter and stronger than aluminum. The pattern of the carbon fiber varies slightly from unit to unit, which the company says gives each laptop a unique finish.
It’s gonna be expensive
With such beefier specs, It’s not surprising that it’s expensive hardware to get hands-on. Lenovo hasn’t announced the pricing yet. But considering the Gen 9 model costs over $4,500, we wouldn’t be surprised if the 3D screen version costs over $5,000.
