The Lenovo Legion 9i is a prime example of this trend, with a promised 30 games that will support 3D effects. However, the device&#8217;s hefty price tag, potentially inflated by tariffs, may hinder its adoption. Despite this, the use of lenticular lenses in the Legion 9i&#8217;s display has sparked hope that this technology could find a niche in the gaming market.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gallery-1\" class=\"not-prose gallery galleryid-2000599809 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-full\">\n<figure class=\"gallery-item\">\n<div class=\"gallery-icon landscape\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile.png\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                    <img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"15 Lenovo Legion 9i Eclipse Black Hero Right Profile\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-2000599817\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile.png 1500w, https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile-680x680.png 680w, https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/05\/15_Lenovo_Legion_9i_Eclipse_Black_Hero_Right_Profile-896x896.png 896w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1023px) calc(100vw -

Weighing in at nearly eight pounds, it&#8217;s not exactly portable, but its 18-inch &#8220;PureSight&#8221; display is a notable feature. This display supports 4K resolution in 2D and 2K (1,920 x 1,200) resolution in 3D, making it a unique offering in the market. Similar to the Samsung Odyssey 3D gaming monitor and Lenovo&#8217;s concept 3D curved displays, the screen uses a lenticular lens array to create a pseudo 3D popout effect with a subtle hint of depth.<\/p>\n<p>The 3D effect on the Legion 9i is reminiscent of the Nintendo 3DS, with its ability to create a sense of depth without the need for glasses. However, the viewing angles required to achieve this effect have been improved with the use of eye-tracking cameras, which beam the image to each eye individually. Lenovo&#8217;s 3D Studio software allows users to control this feature and supports 3D viewing in various formats, including video, images, and streaming content.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2000599828\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2000599828\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\">\n        <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2000599828\" src=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/i-desperately-hope-this-lenovo-gaming-laptop-can-make-3d-screens-mainstream-2000599809\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source Link<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lenovo is one of the few major hardware brands that believes the future of laptops lies in glasses-free 3D displays, rather than just relying on improved processors and flashy RGB&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":18732,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[90,2082,250],"class_list":["post-18731","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-gaming","tag-lenovo","tag-samsung"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2025\/05\/lenovo9i.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18731","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=18731"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/18731\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18732"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18731"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=18731"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fusionmindlabs.com\/blogs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=18731"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
