From budget to beast mode: Lenovo’s CES laptops have a rig for every gamer | usagoldmines.com

At CES 2026, Lenovo showed up with a big gaming refresh that focuses less on a single exorbitantly expensive laptop and more on options for different types of gamers. But there’s one concept laptop that both confused and delighted me.

That concept is the Legion Pro Rollable (pictured above) and it’s exactly what it sounds like. It starts as a 16-inch gaming laptop, but the OLED screen can physically roll out to 21.5 inches or a full 24 inches. Lenovo says it’s meant for on-the-go esports players who train on big monitors. Internally, it’s based on the Legion Pro 7i and packs top-tier Intel Core Ultra chips and an RTX 5090 Laptop GPU.

The Legion 7a is thinner and lighter than last year’s model, runs AMD’s new Ryzen AI 400 processors, and pairs them with Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 50-series graphics, which can push up to 125W. Lenovo’s positioning it as a machine you can game on, but also use it for coding or 3D work.

The Legion 5 series sits right below that. You can get it with Intel or AMD CPUs, but either way you’re still getting RTX 50-series GPUs, OLED displays, and Lenovo’s AI Engine+ tuning for when you want to adjust the power and thermals. This is the mainstream option for those who want strong gaming performance without dropping tons of cash.

Then there’s the LOQ lineup, which is geared more toward students and people buying their first gaming PC. It’s cheaper and simpler, but still fast enough to run modern games. 

Prices start at $1,149 for the LOQ, while most Legion models fall between $1,499 and $1,999, with a spring 2026 release.
