Lenovo has revealed a lineup of new devices, headlined by the Legion Go portable gaming console. The official announcement appears on the manufacturer’s site, laying out a vision for a compact, versatile handheld that aims to blend console and PC-like gaming in one compact package.
A standout feature set sets Legion Go apart: it supports ejectable TrueStrike controllers, a nod to popular modular systems like the Nintendo Switch. The device also includes a built-in stand for stable use on flat surfaces, two USB-C ports with DisplayPort 1.4 support, and a trackpad for precise control in desktop-like modes. This combination targets gamers who want quick, comfortable play on the go without sacrificing the comfort and precision of a larger setup.
Weighing in at 854 grams, Legion Go sports an 8.8-inch display with a resolution of 2560 by 1600 pixels and a refresh rate of 144 Hz. Power comes from AMD’s Ryzen Z1 or Z1 Extreme processor lineage, the same family seen in competing handhelds such as the ROG Ally. In terms of memory and storage, the unit ships with 16 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and storage options of 256 GB, 512 GB, or 1 TB on PCIe SSDs, offering substantial space for modern games and quick-load performance.
Software wise, Legion Go runs Windows 11, pairing full PC gaming capabilities with a handheld form factor. A 49.2Wh battery supports 65W fast charging, aiming to reduce downtime and keep players moving between sessions and quick breaks without long recharge waits.
Alongside the console, Lenovo introduced two additional accessories designed to expand the experience. Legion Glasses are augmented reality eyewear featuring a microOLED display designed to overlay digital visuals onto the real world, while Legion E510 7.1 RGB in-ear headphones deliver reinforced emitters and vibrant RGB lighting. The glasses are compatible with Windows, Android, and macOS devices, enabling mixed-reality experiences across ecosystems, and the headphones connect via USB-C for straightforward use with the Legion Go and other devices.
Legion Go is scheduled to go on sale in November with a price of roughly €799. The AR glasses are priced at about €499 and the Legion E510 headphones at around €49. Information about North American availability and pricing in USD or CAD will likely follow through regional Lenovo channels as the launch window approaches. A Russian-language page for the console has already appeared on Lenovo’s site, hinting at regional interest but not confirming broader rollout details for that market.
For context, Lenovo’s announcement follows competitive moves in the handheld gaming space, with other manufacturers showcasing devices that emphasize battery life and performance in a portable form factor. In related developments, the Ayaneo Kun previously highlighted the market’s longest-lasting battery option, underscoring the ongoing push to extend playtime in handhelds while maintaining strong processing power.
