GraphicsNVIDIA GeForce RTX 5050 Laptop GPU, 8 GB GDDR7; 2662 MHz boost, 115 W TGP, 440 AI TOPS

115 W TGP is among the higher power limits used for this GPU in laptops; the same RTX 5050 runs at lower power in thinner chassis. The graphics chip is soldered. Lenovo also offers the RTX 5060 and 5070 Laptop GPU in this chassis at 115 W.

Display15.1-inch WQXGA (2560 × 1600) OLED; 165 Hz, 500 nits typical / 1000 nits peak, 100% DCI-P3, glossy surface, DisplayHDR True Black 600, Dolby Vision

DisplayHDR True Black 600 is the VESA tier verifying 600-nit peak brightness and very low black level on OLED panels. The panel is factory colour-calibrated and TÜV-certified for low blue light and flicker-free operation; it is not a touchscreen. The platform sheet does not list G-SYNC for this panel.

Lenovo		16-inch QHD+ (2560 × 1600), 240 Hz, IPS-level panel, 100% DCI-P3 (typical)

The 16:10 ratio gives more vertical space at the same width; 240 Hz shows motion more smoothly in high-frame-rate games.

MSI
Memory16 GB (1 × 16 GB) DDR5-5600 SO-DIMM; 2 slots, dual-channel capable

With one module fitted at the factory, memory runs in single channel; adding a matching module to the free slot enables dual channel. The highest capacity Lenovo has tested is 32 GB.

Lenovo		16 GB (2 × 8 GB) DDR5-5600; 2 SO-DIMM slots, up to 96 GB

Memory is not soldered; capacity can be raised by replacing the two modules.

MSI
Storage1 TB M.2 2242 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe SSD; 2 × M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slots

A second SSD can be fitted in the free M.2 slot.

Lenovo		1 TB NVMe SSD (PCIe Gen4); 1 × M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen4 and 1 × M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen5-compatible slot

The second slot allows an extra SSD; the Gen5-compatible slot accepts faster new-generation SSDs.
