Gaming laptops are ridiculously expensive in 2025, but Lenovo AU’s EOFY discounts have made some brand new RTX 50-series units more viable

Tax-return season is imminent, which means every retailer and brand with a profile in Australia is carving chunks off their RRPs. Lenovo is no exception, and today it’s set live a range of big discounts on the Legion gaming laptop range, with savings of up to AU$900 on the newest, tenth-generation Legion lappies.

Keeping in mind the cost-of-living crisis, let’s start with something affordable: for just over AU$2,200 (down from AU$2,779) you can get a 15-inch Legion 5 with an RTX 5060, AMD Ryzen 7 260 CPU, 16GB DDR5 RAM and a gorgeous 2560 x 1600-pixel OLED screen with a 165Hz refresh rate. Spec-wise, the only possible downside on this model is the 512GB SSD, which won’t hold many 100GB+ blockbuster games, so it probably won’t be long before you’ll be on the prowl for an expansion. This laptop will play basically anything you can throw at it at 1080p or higher, though.
