Lenovo Legion 5i Laptop Review – RTX 2060 for £999!

For the synthetic gaming tests, we tested the GPUs' capabilities with 3DMark benchmarking software. We compared the Legion 5i to other laptops we have reviewed in the past, where possible.

Placing last in every test doesn’t actually make the Legion a loser! Our 2060 is up against 2070 Max-Q and Max-P GPUs, considering this the scores are very close and what we expected to see here from a 6GB RTX 2060.

Now let’s look at real gaming benchmarks. Bear in mind we put these games to the absolute highest settings that the game would let us, all games would let us set the graphics to run at maximum other than DOOM Eternal which we still ran at Nightmare settings.

Starting with Doom Eternal our results show it’s far more than playable, this ran brilliantly and it looked great on the 144Hz IPS screen. The Division 2 and Shadow of the Tomb Raider saw a slight dive in performance, while Resident Evil 2 remake did very well. We expected these results as Division 2 and Tomb Raider are always a push at maximum settings. We still think these results are great, tweak some settings, maybe drop the shadows a little etc. and you’ll get better FPS but even at 60fps lowest these ran great.

One thing to point out is the lack of drive space, we really wanted to test CoD MW but since that game is insanely huge, well over 200GB at the time of writing, it just wasn’t possible to even install it.
