Lenovo Legion Go's features and images leaked

Lenovo has long been a topic of conversation with its speculated venture into the handheld gaming domain, and with the recently leaked images of the "Lenovo Go," it appears they might be on the cusp of launching a premium gaming device. The leaked visuals present a device remarkably similar to the Nintendo Switch OLED model, especially with the robust kickstand and detachable controllers that are quite akin to the Switch's Joy-Cons.

The Lenovo Go's button layout seems to be standard for such devices, boasting two analog sticks, a D-Pad, four buttons labeled A, B, X, and Y, along with a touchpad. Notably, there's a wheel on the back of the right controller, likely intended to facilitate scrolling during browsing sessions, given that the device is anticipated to run on Windows 11.

While the detachable nature of the controllers implies a touchscreen interface, specifics about the screen's type or its refresh rate remain undisclosed. Nonetheless, sources anticipate an 8-inch display, positioning the Lenovo Go slightly ahead of competitors like the Steam Deck, Asus ROG Alley, and the Switch OLED, which predominantly feature 7-inch displays.

Powering this handheld device could be the AMD Ryzen Z1 APU, a choice seen in devices like the ASUS ROG Ally. The lingering question remains whether Lenovo would opt for the power-packed Z1 Extreme or the energy-efficient Z1 APU, as the latter is more suited for portable devices. An observable large vent on the device's rear suggests a design optimized for thermal regulation. Finally, for connectivity, expectations are set on dual USB-C ports and a microSD card slot, complemented by a headphone jack.
