This is a pretty solid deal, which is even better with the current Cashrewards 15% uncapped cashback. With cashback it will come in just under $2k accounting for GST. Looks like the 15% cashback is just for today so do your review sleuthing quickly.

If you're okay with a RTX 4060 and don't mind upgrading your own ram at some point you can a Legion Slim 5 16 in that spec delivered way quicker for an okay price of $1,899 before cashback.

I'm a little bit salty because I just bought a Slim 5 14" last week for a similar price, and would have loved the 4070 and ability to upgrade ram. But then we get into the whole portability thing.

Happy hunting

  • OP link cycles through a banner that says extra 10% off everything with lenovo education.. dont have edu myself, for those that do, perhaps you can stack with CB for extra ~$200 off?

      The Cashrewards banner says the 15% cashback is ineligible on Lenovo Education store.

    I got this from last deal. Really decent Laptop no issues so far.

  • The Slim 5 14' is not available anymore. Looks like a refresh is coming?

    • Not sure, was considering picking one up and now gone completely. There isn't a lot of choice when it comes to discrete 14-inch laptops than can handle some gaming and not cost a fortune more than $2k.

        I find that it is the best balance of power, portability and price. However, the current Slim 5 14' setup is quite old. So hopefully it gets a refresh to the Gen 9 as least.

        • It didnt have GSync and Ram was soldered. PWM flicker was very bad too.
          High hope new generation fix all of the above, then it'll be one of the best 14inch gaming laptop. Tho we get many contenders this year compare to last year.

    Thanks for posting - looks like an awesome deal, however I am not sure if the 15% cashback from your post will stack with the laptops you posted, e.g:

    Legion Pro 5i (16″, Gen 9)
    Part Number: 83DF003XAU
    $2,289.00(inc. GST)
    Savings: $1,510.00 (39%)
    Legion Pro 5i (16″, Gen 9)
    eCoupon Applied: SPRING

    I can't see SPRING listed on Cashrewards as an eligible coupon to be stacked - trying to find laptops on the site that are using the SEPTEMBER eligible code from Cashrewards at the moment.

    I saw that the cashback includes 'eligible codes' on Lenovo website but worried it will not track - seems like a bit of risk given history with some of the larger ticket items occasionally not being tracked.

      The OP of the cashback posted this "Cashback is eligible on codes generated by Lenovo on its website" SPRING was made by the lenovo site so it should work (YMMV I take no responsibility)

    Even if you don't get the 15% cashback, this is a great deal.

    The laptop looks to have 2x M.2 Gen4 slots with 2x DDR5 SO-DIMM slots. Can imagine throwing in 64GB RAM and a 4TB NVME for a beast of a laptop that will last years.

    Too bad I already have a gaming rig otherwise would get this. Pair it with a TB4 dock and 3-4 monitors for ultimate productivity if needed.

    • Hmm, does it support TB4 or USB4?

  • +1

    Does anyone have experience with how long cashback takes with Lenovo? I bought this spec in May and the ~$320 cashback was supposed to hit a month ago but still nothing.

    • I just bought a Lenovo and my cashrewards is pending for 95 days

  • Can you stack 10% off first order?

  • The legion pro laptops are pretty solid. I got the Legion Pro 7i RTX4090M/13900HX model & in most real life in-game testing I’m about 5% ~ 15% less performant than a RTX4080S/7800XD PC. Latest examples include Black Myth Wukong where at matching settings my average fps was anywhere from 5~15FPS less than the 4080S…
