Lenovo just introduced its most powerful creative laptop yet: the Legion 9i. Announced at Lenovo Tech World in Shanghai, it’s built for serious game developers, 3D artists, and creators who need top-tier performance. With more than half of upcoming titles for current-gen systems built on Unreal Engine, the Legion 9i couldn’t have come at a better time. This isn’t just a gaming laptop—it’s a creation station.
The massive 18-inch PureSight display is something to behold, offering up to either 4K resolution in traditional 2D or 2K resolution in glasses-free 3D. The 3D effect is achieved using eye-tracking tech and a clever lens system, no headset or special 3D glasses needed! Lenovo’s AI-powered 3D Studio also supports various file formats as well as creation apps, allowing you to preview your work in 3D.
Underneath the hood, you’re looking at serious firepower! It comes with an Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX processor, a cutting-edge Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 GPU, up to 192GB of DDR5 RAM, and up to 8TB of SSD storage. That’s a crazy amount of power and space, which is ideal for giant game builds and creative assets. AI is a big part of the experience, too. AI features like Game Coach and Game Clip Master help you improve your gaming skills and create shareable content on social media.
To round it all off, the Legion 9i’s lid is made of forged carbon fiber, so every machine has its own unique cosmetic pattern. Lenovo’s also offering the Legion 18 Armored Backpack II to keep your gear safe while you’re traveling.
The Lenovo Legion 9i is expected to launch this fall. Pricing will be announced closer to launch.
