The Lenovo Legion 5 Pro has been revamped for 2024, but don't let the new year fool you - this laptop is essentially identical to its predecessor. With the same aluminum top lid, weighted design, and port lineup, it's a repeat performance from last year's model. The only notable changes are a swapped-out key on the keyboard and a slightly different CPU configuration. This raises questions about whether upgrading to the new model is worth the investment.
