Lenovo has launched two new gaming laptops in its Legion lineup of products. The Legion Y740 and Legion Y540, both were showcased at CES 2019, earlier this year along with a slew of Legion branded hardware including monitors and gaming accessories.
As a laptop brand in India, Lenovo currently dominates the personal computing space with over 46% market share and with the Legion series, it's only looking to strengthen its gaming portfolio in India.
“This new breed of gamers live a multi-faceted life that balances work, family and social life, and are connected by their passion for gaming. Which is why our Legion portfolio, co-created with gamers, is designed to look just as great in a living room as it would in a conference room,” said Shailendra Katyal, Executive Director, Consumer PCSD, Lenovo India.
