SHANGHAI CHINA, 9TH MAY 2025- Lenovo today unveiled the Legion 9i (18”, 10) at its Tech World event in Shanghai. Designed keeping in mind both gamers and game developers, the device determines new limits in the realm of AI capacity, display tech, as well as hardware specifications.

“The most powerful gaming laptops deliver seamless performance even with the most demanding titles, and the new Lenovo Legion 9i (18”, 10) laptop is designed to set a new standard,”

Said Jun Ouyang, Lenovo’s Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Consumer Segment, Intelligent Devices Group, Lenovo.

“Built with top-tier hardware and next-generation AI software innovations, it combines exceptional speed and intelligence — not just for immersive gaming, but also to empower game developers, AI engineers, and designers with the high performance and optional 2K 3D support they need to bring their visions to life.”

The Legion 9i reportedly takes on an 18” PureSight display that can be pushed to 4K resolution, and an alternative glasses-free 2K 3D display is seldom used. It displays work with 240Hz at 4K resolution and 440Hz at FHD resolution.

 Gone are the days when software for 3D designing and development was considered separate, and now a single device supports tools that make use of Unreal Engine and AI for smooth development and content creation.

This laptop is powered by the Intel Core Ultra 9 275HX alongside the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090. It supports up to 192GB of DDR5 RAM and an SSD storage capacity of 8 TB. Lenovo Coldfront: Vapor system provides for thermal management even at a 280W full load.

The Lenovo AI Core chip and AI Engine+ are available AI tools that optimize the system in real time. The Lenovo Legion Space software introduces ambient lighting sync, a six-speaker system, and features such as Game Coach and Game Clip Master.

Every burner features a forged carbon lid. The Legion 9i features Thunderbolt 5 ports, offers CO2 offset options, and also comes with a three-month membership to PC Game Pass.

Legion 9i will start its sales in select regions as of June and roll out in North America in Q4 2025. Pricing starts at 4499 EUR (inc. VAT). Lenovo will be releasing the Legion Armored Backpack II.
