The Lenovo Legion Y90 series has been making rounds for a while now, but according to a new leak, it will be launched as the Legion Legion Phone 3 series globally. Included in it will be two models — the Legion 3 Elite and the Legion 3 Pro. The leak shows the duo in their clearest images yet, while also revealing all of the color options.
According to Evan Blass, the Legion Phone 3 series could be released soon. While it is a sequel to last year’s Legion Duel 2, it has dropped the “Duel” from its name, going for Pro and Elite suffixes instead. The codename of the series appears to be “Diablo.”
Both devices come with perhaps the most extensive gaming-specific features on any Android gaming phone to date. The first thing you would notice is the extremely rad design with a huge center-aligned module that appears to be built for the cameras, but also packs some elaborate RGB lights and even a twin cooling fan system.
Other gamer-boy stuff includes four ultrasonic shoulder keys and two rear capacitive buttons. The rear also features a leather texture that should help with a better grip during extended gaming sessions.
Upfront, there is a 6.92-inch AMOLED with a 144Hz refresh rate, 720Hz touch sampling rate, and a peak brightness of 1,300nits. The display is surrounded by bezels on top and the bottom, both of which house a front-firing, Dolby Atmos-certified, stereo speaker setup. Notches and punch-holes are absent as the camera is stuffed into the top bezel.
Inside, you get the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chip that’s paired with up to 18GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 640GB of storage. The storage appears to be a combination of a 512GB UFS 3.1 drive and a 128GB SSD.
Both Legion 3 Elite and Legion 3 Pro pack dual 2,800mAh batteries, totaling at 5,600mAh, with support for 68W charging. Two USB-C ports mean you can charge from either side while gaming, per your convenience.
For photography, you get a dual-camera setup comprised of 64MP and 13MP sensors. Selfies will be handled by the single 16MP sensor upfront.
The Lenovo Legion Phone 3 series will be unleashed sometime in Q1 2022.
