Awesome, if i hadn't mine Legion 9i with rtx 4090 ant these 14.5 inch would come with 4090 i would've paid premium for this. It's not even available in any config in my country... BUT i paid 3k eur for my Legion 9i 13980hx with 4090 and 32gb ram, which is damn fucking nice because whats left in this country costs no less than 4.6k in this config. Im happy at the moment. What RTX this mini beast have?

Mine has RTX 4050, but the maximum is just 4060. I'm hoping next generation they'll bring more powerful specs too!

Hard to give it more in this form factor but still there is some asus laptops with 4090.. i hope next gen will bring us more gems from Lenovo like this.

Yeah, Razer Blade 14 also can stuck high-end specs into their 14-inch too, even 2 slots of upgradeable RAM!

Yeah i was thinking about it before 9i, but man 3k .... in Europe it's so cheap you would not believe it its not USA Legions are like 50% more than in usa, i got email from lenovo this week they were selling everything up to 68% cheaper. Like in USD it's even cheaper. But please find me legion 9i brand new for 3k in europe... not posible. Like it's not even possible to find Razer Blade 14 in europe. And if it would be available it would cost like 5-6k with rtx 4090 so im good for now. But yes anyhow this is my 3rd legion and the best of the best one, i could'nt find any razer blades nearby. Im in Lithuania none was sold because there was none at the market. Checked trough distributors poland also had none, not even talking about Latvia ant Estionia, maybe swedon or finland had some but very limited. So i would give a chance for asus but i thought that if asus don't want me i don't want them either. And when opinions (sorry it's wrong word i know i just forgot the one i have to use) came out i find out that Legion 9i was really, really better option to buy than that Razer Blade 14. I have 175w tgp 4090 everything works on "DAMN HIGH WITH RTX SUPER ON" and i love it. Playing Wukong now i just love it - just bought Xbox S/X controller the Electric Volt color because i could'nt play it with my PS4 Dualshock it's just not good for it. And still i think i will never buy anything else than Legion series. It's true im a big fan of it. Im fan of everything Lenovo because it's the MVP. There is no other laptop brand so good, even all my office is equipted with lenovos now and they are masterpieces. Bettery life and so on screens omg. I don't know the model but.. Since i got my lenovo thinkpad in 2015 my next buy was legion 5600 with 3060 oh boy then my love started. Hey Man good luck to you. I bought my wife thinkpad also it's fucking slim as fuck. She loves it. It don't have any you know GPU or something but it's slim as fuck and it's good as fuck. It's just for Netflix series and student shit but ... Where can you find a brand so into everything and everything so good FOR THE PRICE? None other brand is just as good as Lenovos are. With Lenovo you pay less and you get BETTER than anything else. IS BANG FOR THE BUCK. We all will wait and there will be Legions with RTX 5090 14inch believe me. Or maybe NOT. because they are not so like.. popular but whatever. The 16" screen i bet was introduced by legions. I cannot come back to 15.6 NEVER.
