Now, RTX 4070-equipped gaming laptops with fairly decent QHD displays are drawing closer to the $1,000 threshold as the popular Lenovo Legion Pro 5 16 has received one of its steepest discount to date.

In this particular sale, Lenovo has discounted the Legion Pro 5 Gen 8 configuration with the AMD Ryzen 7 7745HX and the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU to just $1,242 including free shipping. Customers should apply the coupon code "GAMEXTRA10" during checkout in order to take full advantage of this gaming notebook offer at Lenovo's official online store.

In addition to the aforementioned specifications, the Legion Pro 5 16 sports 16GB RAM, a 1TB SSD and a QHD screen with 165Hz and up to 300 nits of brightness. We reviewed this exact RTX 4070 version of the 16-inch Lenovo gaming laptop, which is why prospective buyers who need more info on the Legion Pro 5 Gen 8 should take a look at our corresponding review.

All in all, we came to the conclusion that this AMD model of the Lenovo Legion Pro 5 is a better choice compared to the higher-priced counterpart with an Intel processor. However, gamers should prepare to carry around the huge 300W power supply, and we have also criticized the missing USB 4.0 and Advanced Optimus support. Nonetheless, the Lenovo Legion Pro 5 is a very enticing RTX 4070 gaming laptop at the current price point.
