Lenovo is expanding its Legion gaming lineup, with plans to unveil two brand-new OLED monitors at the upcoming IFA trade show in Berlin. The new displays, dubbed the Legion Pro 27UD-10 and 32UD-10, will offer gamers the same core technology in two popular sizes: 27 and 32 inches.
On the performance front, both models are spec'd to be absolute powerhouses, featuring a native 4K resolution combined with a blazing-fast 240Hz refresh rate. Lenovo is leveraging its PureSight OLED technology for the panels, which have earned an impressive slate of certifications: Dolby Vision, VESA DisplayHDR Black 400, and VESA ClearMR 13000 for exceptional motion clarity.
For smooth, tear-free gameplay, both monitors come certified for AMD FreeSync Premium Pro. However, there has been no mention of NVIDIA G-Sync compatibility at this time. As expected, a variety of built-in gaming modes will also be included.
Connectivity appears to be robust, with both monitors equipped with two HDMI 2.1 ports and one DisplayPort 1.4 input. A versatile USB-C port, which also carries a DisplayPort 1.4 signal, is included as well, complemented by a three-port USB 3.x hub for peripherals.
One notable omission, however, is the lack of a built-in KVM switch, a feature often appreciated by users running multiple systems. To compensate, the displays do offer support for both Picture-in-Picture (PiP) and Picture-by-Picture (PbP) modes, allowing for multiple sources to be displayed simultaneously.
In terms of physical design, the included stand offers a full range of ergonomic adjustments, including height, tilt, swivel, and pivot. In a thoughtful design choice, the stand's base also integrates a small cradle for holding a smartphone or tablet.
For navigating the on-screen display, Lenovo has opted for a unique control scheme: four buttons hidden on the lower-center portion of the monitor's rear panel. This placement seems like it could be somewhat inconvenient for quick access. However, Lenovo has made one of these a dedicated hotkey for instantly switching between gaming modes.
Looking at power consumption, the 27-inch 27UD-10 is rated for a typical draw of 55W, peaking at 130W. The larger 32-inch 32UD-10 is notably more power-hungry, with its typical consumption starting at 130W and reaching a maximum of 175W under peak load.
As for pricing, official numbers haven't been released by Lenovo, but early listings from some European retailers have set the 27-inch 27UD-10 at €799 and the 32-inch 32UD-10 at €949. Both models are expected to become available later this month, and some retailers have already opened pre-order pages.
