Ahead of any official announcement, a prototype model of the Lenovo Legion Go 2 has been spotted online. This next-gen gaming handheld had its complete design revealed in the latest leak, while also confirming some of its key specs and upgrades. So here’s what we know.
First Look: Lenovo Legion Go 2 Prototype
Earlier this year, the Chinese tech giant unveiled the Legion Go S, a unique handheld that ran on Valve’s SteamOS (similar to the Steam Deck). However, this wasn’t a generational upgrade over the Legion Go. Lenovo was expected to be working on a next gen model with improved specs to rival the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally and Ally X. However, details of this new gaming handheld were still scarce until now.
We got a full look at the Legion Go 2 via a prototype leak, which was shared on YouTube. Looking at this video, Lenovo is bringing updates to the design while retaining the detachable controllers. The 8.8-inch OLED screen also makes a return that offers 500 nits of peak brightness, 1200p resolution, and a 120Hz refresh rate.
Under the hood, the prototype Legion Go 2 is equipped with AMD’s new Ryzen Z2. The video adds that this prototype was on sale in China’s second hand market. So this isn’t the final build of the Legion Go 2. But rumors hint that the commercial version could pack up to an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme APU. Unlike the Legion Go S, the Legion Go 2 still runs on the Windows platform, that likely brings special optimizations as well.
