The 2024 Lenovo Legion Slim 5 with the AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS and an Nvidia RTX 4060 is now down to $962.99 on the official store. To get this full $557 price cut on the gaming laptop, use the "LENOVOLIVE10" coupon during checkout.

Lenovo hasn't refreshed the Legion Slim 5 gaming laptop with a Zen 5 chip yet. So, before the Strix Point variant lands, the latest option is the Gen 9, which happens to be on sale. The configuration with the AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS, Nvidia RTX 4060, 16 GB of RAM, and 512 GB of storage is currently down to $962.99.

This is a decent $557 price cut from what the gaming laptop usually sells for, but to get it at this discounted tag, you need to use the "LENOVOLIVE10" coupon during checkout. Without the coupon, you will get a $450 discount.

We didn't review this exact model, but we did have an in-depth look at the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8. That also came with the Nvidia RTX 4060, and in our benchmarks, the GPU performed well. Paired with the AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS, it should let you play pretty much all games smoothly at 1080p and with all visual settings turned up.

As for the Ryzen 7 8845HS, we found it to be similar to the Ryzen 7 7840HS, but it does come with some enhancements. For example, it has the 2nd generation XDNA NPU, which can deliver up to 16 TOPS of AI performance. With that, the combined performance goes up to 38 TOPS, which can boost AI workloads but, unfortunately, is still not enough for the Copilot+ PC platform.

Besides that, the Legion Slim 5 Gen 9 does live up to its name. It's indeed one of the slimmest gaming laptops available in the market. Other notable aspects include an 80 Wh battery, a sleek aluminum build, a decent 1600p IPS screen, and a good selection of ports. You can learn more by watching the video attached below.
