For many years, the Chinese manufacturer Lenovo produced a variety of laptops and was not particularly interested in components, peripherals and computer monitors. However, after the success of Legion gaming laptops, the company decided to pay more attention to gamers by launching mice, keyboards, headphones and monitors for gamers of the same name. In the latter case, we are talking about mid- and top-level models, which quickly imposed competition on Dell Alienware, MSI Optix, Asus TUF, HP Omen and Iiyama G-Master series monitors.


The advantages of the Legion series include an interesting design and support for all relevant technologies for a gaming monitor. Typically this list includes AMD FreeSync, HDR, Flicker-Free, TÜV Rheinland certified and the latest HDMI versions to connect your gaming console in 4K + 120Hz mode. Higher-end 4K monitors include support for FreeSync Premium or NVIDIA G-Sync, an integrated USB hub, and an optional KVM switch.

The core of the Legion line consists of VA and IPS displays, classic by today's standards, with a diagonal of 24 - 32 inches, a high refresh rate (160 - 220 Hz) and a minimum response speed of around 1 ms (or 0.5 ms according to MPRT). Resolution varies depending on the price, so everyone can choose the most suitable option in the 1080p, 1440p or 2160p class.

As for sizes, IPS panels with a diagonal of 24 - 27 inches dominate the sale. Less common on sale are rounded widescreen displays with a diagonal of up to 32 inches. In rare cases, you can stumble upon gigantic 44- and 45-inch widescreen models, which would be more correctly called a TV.
