Innovation goes hand-in-hand with gaming devices. To achieve the best immersive gaming experience, gamers need high-performing devices with the latest upgrades.

“Our mission is to provide Smarter Technology For All. We achieve this by bringing together the best features and innovations to deliver our users the best performance, design, and functionality. The latest generation of Lenovo devices is a testament to that commitment, embodying the perfect blend of power, precision, and style that every gamer dreams of,” shared Mike Ngan, General Manager of Lenovo Philippines.

The newly released gaming device lineup sets the standard for using AI innovation to achieve peak power efficiency. Both Legion and Lenovo LOQ devices are equipped with the newly developed Lenovo LA AI Core Chips, providing a fully user-customizable, AI-assisted performance boost for higher FPS and an overall top-tier experience. Additionally, gamers can expect a brand-new thermal design solution built for extended gaming sessions.

Lenovo, in partnership with Intel, redefined thermal design with the Legion Coldfront Hyper thermal solution to manage airflow within gaming laptops. Exclusive to the Lenovo Legion 7i and Lenovo Legion 5i, this new system optimizes heat management by transforming airflow within the chassis and channelling hot air from the chips through a central hyperbaric chamber. Gamers can expect significantly cooler temperatures as the bottom D-cover isolates and expels hot air from the cool air drawn in by dual fans, allowing for higher frame rates during gameplay.

The Lenovo LOQ, Lenovo’s entry-level gaming line, also received an upgrade that is perfect for novice gamers who want to compete with the best. These devices feature Lenovo’s hyperchamber thermal technology, which can draw out up to an additional 25W of power in Extreme Mode while maintaining skin temperatures up to 2°C cooler. Fan noise is also reduced by up to 2dB compared to the last generation, keeping processors cool for maximum performance.

“Lenovo’s latest Legion and LOQ lineups exemplify the brand’s commitment to continuous innovation. With these recent improvements to the devices’ internal and external hardware, complemented by AI-assisted performance boosts and core chips, this generation of devices perfectly represents Lenovo’s vision to deliver Smarter Technology and AI for all,” said Clifford Chong, AP Gaming Category Manager, Lenovo Asia Pacific.
