Today, Lenovo Senior Product Manager, Lin Lin shared two screenshots of the Lenovo Legion Y90 running the popular MMORPG game Genshin Impact on his Weibo today. It was to showcase how the Lenovo Legion Y90 with its built-in dual-fan cooling system handles a heavy game like Genshin Impact under the highest graphics settings.
From the screenshots gathered, the Lenovo Legion Y90 has been running Genshin Impact for 25 minutes at ultra-high graphics settings at 60fps, and throughout testing, the Lenovo Legion Y90 maintained a steady performance, with a peak temperature of only 38.4 degrees Celsius, which is very cool compared to its competition where devices can exceed temperatures of 40 or even 50 degrees Celsius, which would make the mobile gaming experience very warm and uncomfortable.
Although the Lenovo Legion Y90 is being advertised to have a 144Hz refresh rate display, it did not seem to run Genshin Impact at 144fps, it ran the game under 60fps throughout Lenovo’s testing. So whether the phone will support 144fps on Genshin Impact, users would have to test it themselves after the phone’s official release.
Other highlighting features of the Lenovo Legion Y90 besides its 144Hz refresh rate display include a 720Hz touch response rate for shorter response times for a smoother software experience, a large 6.92” E4 AMOLED display provided by Samsung, HDR10 Enhanced support, and Legion’s custom display color profile tuning for gamers to provide the best gaming experience for gamers. As a gaming phone, the phone is not designed to have a punch-hole in the display to remove any blind spots during gaming.
Other details such as the chipset under the hood or the release date of the phone have not yet been officially announced by Lenovo, but leaks from insiders in China previously mentioned that the Legion Y90 is packing a Snapdragon 888 and the launch of the Lenovo Legion Y90 could happen on January 1, 2022.
