Alright, let’s dive in. So, this morning, I was scrolling through Reddit (as one does), and stumbled upon this nugget from a user—maybe named Worth_Spot or something?—about a Lenovo handheld doohickey. Sounds fancy at first blush. Apparently, there’s this rogue Lenovo Legion Go sequel just casually floating around in China. Heard it’s courtesy of some shutdown factory chucking out developer units like they’re hotcakes. Wild, right?
And, oh boy, there’s a YouTube video too! Someone on BiliBili (don’t ask me how I wound up there) managed to nab a video showing this new gadget. Looks kinda similar to what they had before, with controllers you can detach—I guess that’s the cool thing now—and a big ol’ screen. This one’s an 8.8-inch OLED from Samsung. High-tech stuff. Imagine HDR content popping off that screen like no tomorrow. But funny enough, the resolution’s a step down from its older sibling. Odd choice, if you ask me. Though, it can refresh at 144 Hz and has this fancy VRR thing. Might be why gamers would drool over it, I suppose.
Meanwhile, buried in the specs, there’s talk of an AMD Ryzen Z2 under the hood, sporting some heady architecture lingo—Zen 4? And a flashy Radeon 780M GPU. I have to admit, specs make my head spin, like back in trigonometry class! But the gist is, more power for your pocket, I guess?
Speaking of specs, I think there’s a lot more—1TB SSD, 32GB of this memory stuff, Wi-Fi 6E (whatever that means), pre-installed Windows 11 (yawn, I’m an Apple person, sue me). There’s a trackpad, sort of like what you see on laptops, and one controller that turns into a mouse or something. It’s like Transformers for adults!
Anyway – no, wait – reportedly, this sprightly little gadget aims to debut in September for about a grand. Quite a chunk of change, eh? Puts it in the ring against the likes of something Asus-related—the ROG Xbox Ally? Wow, these names. But it seems Microsoft’s giving Asus a high-five partnership. Interesting plot twist for Lenovo.
Oh, right… before I forget… Lenovo’s only selling this Legion Go S thing currently, with kinda older chips. So, naturally, they’ve gotta crank up the competitive edge for this next-gen gizmo to make waves.
Catch ya later! Make sure you follow whatever news place you love for all this gaming gadget goodness. Me? I just browse Reddit.
