This is evident in the inclusion of dedicated PgUp and PgDn keys into the enlarged arrow key cluster, but with key spacing that is more optimized for quicker, more accurate inputs while gaming. Combined with the 1.5mm key travel and an understated white backlight, the keyboard on the Lenovo Legion Slim 5 (14”, 8) delivers the responsiveness and comfort that Lenovo TrueStrike keyboards are known for.
