Lenovo launched its new 16-inch laptop in the North American market to provide exceptional performance to users. This innovative device comes with 32 GB of random access memory and a wonderful OLED screen that supports a 120 Hz refresh rate. The 16IPH11 model combines a 16-core Panther Lake processor with a discrete graphics card from NVIDIA that provides 105 watts of power to meet the aspirations of professionals and gamers alike.
Lenovo has begun offering the new generation of IdeaPad Pro 5i computers in North America, offering options that are completely different from the devices it recently launched in Europe and Australia. It should be noted that Lenovo began launching the IdeaPad Pro 5i Gen 11 series in those global markets by introducing a 14-inch model that lacks a separate graphics card, while North America got a larger, more powerful alternative to handle heavy graphic tasks with ease.
The North American version contains a GeForce RTX 5050 card that provides a total graphics power of 105 watts, just like last year’s model, which is available at a price of $1,299. The GeForce RTX 5060 card, which was announced during the CES 2026 exhibition in January, is available in Australia only with an additional fee of 10,098 Australian dollars, equivalent to 6,945 US dollars, which makes the current version a balanced option that combines power and reasonable cost.
Lenovo is offering the IdeaPad Pro 5i computer with two processor options, including the Core Ultra 7 356H processor and the powerful Core Ultra 9 386H processor. The basic configuration comes with a Core Ultra 7 356H processor with 32 GB of LPDDR5X-8533 random access memory, 1 TB of storage space, an 84 watt-hour battery that supports 170-watt fast charging, in addition to a 2.8K non-touch screen that provides a brightness of 500 nits and up to 1000 nits when advanced HDR mode is activated.
Prices for the new IdeaPad Pro 5i computer start at $2,449 in the United States, $3,399 Canadian dollars in Canada, and $4,399 Australian dollars in Australia. Buyers can customize the device to get a Core Ultra 9 386H processor with a touch-enabled screen to increase productivity and facilitate use. Lenovo plans to add additional configuration options in the near future, including providing the powerful Core Ultra X9 388H processor with a giant 99 watt-hour battery to meet the requirements of the most professional groups.
