As a laptop brand in India, Lenovo currently dominates the personal computer space with a market share of over 46%. With the Legion series, you are only looking to strengthen your gaming portfolio in India.

It features a 15.6-inch Full HD (1920 x 1080 pixels) anti-glare display with a 144 Hz refresh rate and Dolby Vision support for HDR games. The laptop screen features a minimal amount of glasses, as the 720p webcam has been repositioned on the bottom bezel, allowing for an immersive viewing experience.
The Lenovo Legion Y740 is configured with the latest 7th generation Intel Core i9750-2060H processor and can be paired with RTX 2070, RTX 2080 with Max-Q graphics, or RTX 32 Max-Q. The laptop supports up to 4GB of DDR1 RAM and up to 2TB of M.XNUMX SSD storage options.
The Y740's audio system was developed by Dolby Atmos to provide an exceptional listening experience during playback. Furthermore, the laptop is equipped with a full Corsair iCue RGB gaming keyboard with 100% anti-ghosting and a response time of less than 1ms.

Unlike the Y740, the Legion Y540 is a slightly more affordable laptop and therefore has a plastic casing. The Y540 doesn't look like a gaming laptop on the outside as it has been stripped of RGB quality for a sleeker profile.
It is equipped with a 15,6-inch IPS Full HD anti-glare display with a 144Hz refresh rate and minimal edges. The Y540 is powered by a 7th Gen Intel Core i9750-2060H processor and is paired with a 20GB RTX XNUMX graphics card.
The Legion Y540 comes with 16GB of RAM and can be upgraded up to 32GB with the 1TB SSD storage option. It is equipped with two Harman Kardon speakers with Dolby Atmos support.
The laptop also has a 100% anti-ghosting gaming keyboard and supports white backlit colors.
