Lenovo Legion Go Takes Gaming to the Next Level:

Lenovo is stepping up its game with the Legion Go, a premium Windows gaming handheld. It’s super powerful, running on an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, backed by 16GB of super-fast LPDDR5x RAM at 7500MHz. You also get up to a 1TB SSD and support for microSD expansion. Plus, it features Lenovo’s Coldfront cooling system to keep things from overheating, and it has a power bypass mode to save battery when plugged in.

But what makes it stand out is the impressive 8.8-inch touchscreen. It boasts a Quad HD+ resolution (2560×1600) with a rapid 144Hz refresh rate and 500 nits of brightness. You can tweak settings to save power or get smoother performance, and the screen covers 97% of DCI-P3, so colors look fantastic.

The controls are top-notch too. The Legion Go offers detachable controllers, so you don’t have to hold the device while gaming. Plus, the right controller has a special base for first-person shooters, featuring an optical sensor for precise aiming. It’s loaded with buttons for added convenience.

What sets it apart even further are the Hall effect sensor joysticks, which are more durable and precise than the usual ones. They’re less prone to wear and tear and allow for almost no dead zone.

Lenovo also announced the Legion Glasses, glasses with micro-OLED displays delivering Full HD visuals at 60Hz, giving you a big-screen experience on the go. They connect via USB-C to Windows, macOS, and Android devices and come with built-in speakers for immersive audio.

And don’t forget the Lenovo Legion E510 7.1 RGB Gaming earbuds. These USB-C wired earbuds come with 10mm armature drivers and have a touch of RGB lighting on the volume controller.

The Legion Go will be available in October, priced at EUR 799 (around Rs. 70,000), with sales starting in November in Shadow Black color. For comparison, the Asus ROG Ally, with an AMD Z1 Extreme processor, is priced at Rs. 69,990 in India.
