Deal | Best mainstream gaming laptop for $530 less: Lenovo Legion 5 Gen 10 with RTX 5060 and OLED display is now on sale
We reported earlier this month that the latest iteration of the Lenovo Legion 5 15 gaming laptop, the Legion 5 Gen 10, was on sale for less than $1,000 at Walmart. Packing a 15-inch OLED display, an RTX 5060 laptop GPU, and a Ryzen 7 260 CPU, the Legion 5 was an excellent value from every angle.
If you missed out on the offer, you are in luck, as a similar deal is now available straight from Lenovo. You can now bring down the price of the Legion 5 Gen 10 gaming laptop to just $1,004.99 on Lenovo’s official store using coupon codes EXTRAFIVE and BUYMORELENOVO at checkout. The total discount, after using the codes, should come out to about $530, making the Legion 5 Gen 10 one of the best affordable gaming laptop values around.
Keen-eyed viewers will note here that the Legion 5 Gen 10 on sale here is actually around $54 more expensive than the previous Walmart deal. A key difference between the two SKUs is that the latest Lenovo offer brings 1 TB of storage instead of 512 GB, which might help digest the slight price increase.
Moving on to the quality of the laptop, our review of the Legion 5 15 Gen 10 praised the machine for its outstanding OLED panel, strong performance, and long battery life. The laptop also offers plenty of upgradability options, ensuring a gaming laptop that can be used for years to come.

For a gaming laptop, performance and the display are the two most important things to nail down. The Lenovo Legion 5 15 Gen 10 excels at both. The 15-inch OLED display is color-accurate, contrast-rich, plenty bright at 500 nits, and smooth at 165 Hz.
Performance-wise, the RTX 5060 laptop GPU, combined with the Ryzen 7 260, is enough to drive modern AAA titles at or above 60 FPS. For instance, titles like Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Alan Wake 2 can be played at 60 FPS or higher at 1080p/high.
Long story short, you don’t have to wait for Black Friday to get a worthy mid-range gaming laptop at an affordable price. If 1080p gaming is all you’re after, the Lenovo Legion 5 15 Gen 10 on sale is an almost perfect option.
