The difference between the Lenovo Legion Slim Gen 8 and Gen 9 lies in the components, namely, the speedier 14th Gen Intel i7-14650HX processor. Our expert reviewed the previous model, the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 Gen 8, in 2023 and praised several aspects that are unchanged in the Gen 9, including the sharp 2,560-by-1,600 display, durable build, and affordable asking price for what it offers.

They raved that, “[the Slim 5 Gen 8] finds a neat balance of refined, trimmed-down design that still lets its internals cruise (even above their max power ratings), which is excellent news for gamers interested in the Gen 9, which remains identical physically, with the added benefit of more powerful internals.

At $565 off, this is an excellent deal on an Editors’ Choice award-winning formula that has gotten even better over time. It’ll open up a whole new world of PC gaming for you—and, speaking of which, your purchase includes three months of Xbox PC Game Pass, a $35 value that grants access to a large, expanding catalogue of video games and day-one releases. Finding your new favorite game has never been easier or more affordable.
