Steam Deck OLED Vs Legion Go Review: Did I Make The Right Choice?
After an eleventh-hour leak, Lenovo on Friday announced the Legion Go, a Windows 11 laptop designed to challenge the Steam Deck and the more recently announced ASUS ROG Ally. The device is known for having a screen that is significantly larger than any of its competitors. Lenovo has equipped the Legion Go with an 8.8-inch 2,560 x 1,600 IPS touchscreen panel with a built-in refresh rate of 144 Hz. Performance-wise, this means that the Go's screen is not only more detailed than the screens on the Steam Deck and ROG Ally, but it's also faster.
Another point of differentiation is the Nintendo Switch-inspired design. You can detach Legion Go's controls from its main body. The handheld also comes with a stand and a touchpad. For ports, the Legion Go comes with a 3.5mm headphone jack and two USB C ports capable of DisplayPort 1.4 output and power supply.
Internally, the Legion Go features the same AMD Z1 Extreme chipset found in the ROG Ally. Extreme combines an eight-core, 16-thread processor based on AMD's Zen 4 architecture and integrated RDNA3 graphics. The Legion Go will ship with 16GB of 7,500Mhz DDR5X memory and 512GB of NVMe storage. You can configure the handheld with up to 1 TB of internal storage and later add as much as 2 TB of additional storage thanks to MicroSD expandability. Lenovo hasn't said what battery life will be like on the Legion Go, but the device will have a 49.2Wh power cell.
