Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 Review

The Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 gaming laptop is a perfect blend of high performance, efficiency, portability and affordability.

Superb OLED display ; Impressive performance ; Decent battery life ; Space for a second SSD

RAM isn’t user-upgradeable ; Conservative styling

More powerful than the HP Omen Transcend 14 and cheaper than the Asus ROG Zephyrus G14, the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8 is a perfect blend of high performance, efficiency, portability and affordability.

High-TDP GPU Well-cooled for its thickness Sharp and fast display Excellent keyboard layout Sturdy build Cheaper than a lot of competitors

No USB4 or Thunderbolt 4 Still fairly long front to back

With the Legion Slim 5 Gen 8, Lenovo shrunk its mainstream gaming laptop while maximizing performance. It's also aggressively priced, making its souped-up GPU and ace display that much more appealing.

Plastic body ; In some games, the RTX 4070 performance isn’t optimal ; High CPU and NVMe temperatures during benchmarking
