Best Laptop Deal of the Day: $645 Off a Mighty Midrange Lenovo Legion Pro 5i

I love a good gaming laptop—who doesn’t? You don’t have to spend a ton to get quality performance. I bought my Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 a couple of years ago, and even though that particular configuration is no longer available, it still handles all my gaming needs and hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down. You could have the same experience with the Lenovo Legion Pro 5i, which, “balances price, performance, and size for an effective, affordable package for gaming and productivity,” according to our expert. You can save a solid 30% when you buy now, and know that your gaming is in good hands.

What could you do with $645? That’s a lot of video games (the Steam Summer Sale is prime time to buy as is Prime Day), and peripherals you could buy. And keeping money in your pocket is the reason you’re here, isn’t it? Our expert reviewed a Lenovo Legion 5i Gen 9 configuration with less storage and gave it an “Excellent” rating for its potent performance and lengthy battery life.

The 16-inch display has a gorgeous 2,560-by-1,600 resolution and is large enough not to warrant the use of a secondary gaming monitor, but if you do want to pick up one or more, the 30% discount will certainly help stretch your hard-earned buck further. It’s not all play and no work, though: This laptop is capable of more demanding tasks like photo and video editing, and it performed well in productivity tasks, which makes this mighty midrange configuration an even better value.
