In a surprising twist, a new leak regarding Lenovo’s next gaming laptops may have come from the company itself. And the leak appears to reveal the first true Windows 11 on ARM gaming laptop based on the upcoming Nvidia N1X chip.

The new laptops were spotted by dataminer Huang514613, who tweeted out a series of product codes for upcoming Lenovo devices.

Here are other devices that Huang spotted that will likely be powered by Nvidia N1X and N1 CPUs.

Ideapad Slim 5 16N1V11
Legion 7 15N1X11
Yoga Pro 7 15N1V11
Yoga Pro 7 15N1X11
Yoga 9 2-in-1 16N1X11

What makes this leak stand out is that it hasn’t yet been revealed when Nvidia’s consumer N1-series would actually debut in gaming laptops. It was suspected that we would have to wait at least a year before anything would actually debut.

This means Lenovo will ship a Legion gaming laptop powered by the N1 chip as a direct competitor with AMD and even Qualcomm, which makes ARM systems. However, laptops and mini PCs that use Qualcomm’s systems aren’t gaming machines.

This could be one of the first true Windows 11 on ARM gaming laptops. However, the dataminer didn’t provide more information beyond the code existing.

The question is whether or not Lenovo’s Nvidia laptop will debut before Dell’s version. Earlier this week, our colleagues at Tom’s Hardware reported that a Dell laptop featuring an N1X chip is will debut in the “first quarter of 2026” and will likely be under the company’s Alienware brand.

Nvidia N1-series?

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has previously confirmed that the N1-series is based on the company’s DGX Spark AI systems and is powered by a GB10 superchip based on N1 silicon.

The GB10 features a 20-core ARM CPU, but is paired with an RTX 5070 GPU. It could have up to 128GB of LPDDR5X memory, though how much it actually ships with may get altered by the ongoing RAM crisis.

Meanwhile, Nvidia may already be developing a second-generation N2 chip that will debut in 2027.

Stay tuned to Tom’s Guide for the latest and we can’t wait to get one of these new Windows 11 on ARM gaming laptops in to test out for ourselves.
