Lenovo may have a new version of the Legion Go in the works.
As spotted by Reddit user methylmorphia, and further reported on by VideoCardz, Lenovo may have let slip that a smaller version (or two) of the Legion Go handheld gaming PC is coming soon. An FAQ section of the Legion Go page on Lenovo’s website was updated at some point to reference a version of the device with a 7-inch display, two fans, and an HDMI port.
The reason this is noteworthy is that the original Legion Go featured an 8.8-inch display, only one fan, and no HDMI port. Based on the limited information in the FAQ, it’s unclear what other differences the theoretical “Lite” version of the Legion Go might have. However, notably, the original model featured Nintendo Switch-like detachable controllers, raising a key question about the smaller model: does it include these detachable controllers? Battery life, which was one of the more unimpressive aspects of the original Legion Go, is also a big question mark.
Still, more options in the burgeoning handheld gaming PC market can only be a good thing for consumers. Between the Legion Go, Asus ROG Ally X, Steam Deck OLED, and the upcoming MSI Claw, a market category that didn’t really exist until 2022 is now suddenly full of choices.
