Lenovo has hinted that it will release a new Legon Go gaming handle in the near future. The information comes from the company’s official website. It is expected to be a relatively compact device with a 7″ screen.

The company’s Legion Go handheld was proved to be a decent alternative to mainstream options such as ASUS’s ROG Ally X. The company revealed that they have plans to expand the Legion Go handheld lineup, possibly with a more compact model.

The recently updated description of the Legion Go handhelds (from the company) now states that the handhelds come “with a 7-inch or 8-inch display”, that offers a compact yet immersive visual experience for both gaming and multimedia content. It suggests that the company is working on a “trimmed-down” version of the original model. For those unfamiliar, the currently available model comes with an 8.8-inch display.

Apart from this, the description also claims that the device has an HDMI port onboard, along with a dual fan cooling system, which is not available in the current model.

Unfortunately, there is no information about the specifications of the new Legion Go handheld yet. However, as Lenovo plans to offer the upcoming handheld as a configuration of the product already available, they may not upgrade the processor and other internals.

The original Legion Go handheld equips an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme with RDNA Graphics, which is paired with 16GB LPDDR5X (onboard) that reaches a frequency of 7500Mhz. For storage, the device packs up to 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD. There is a 2-cell 49.2WHr battery on the device and an additional 900 mAh battery inside the controller.

For wired connectivity, the currently available Legion Go comes with a USB-C 4.0 port, that supports DisplayPort 1.4, and Power Delivery 3.0. For wireless connectivity, it supports WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.1.
