The Legion Go is equipped with an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, a Radeon 700M series GPU, 16GB of RAM, a 512GB SSD, and a massive 8.8-inch display that supports a 144Hz refresh rate. Lenovo’s proprietary Legion Space software serves as a console-like hub for your games from each launcher.

Similar to the Nintendo Switch, it has detachable controllers and a kickstand for tabletop mode. Each of the detachable controllers has a pair of rear buttons and a mouse scroll wheel. The right controller also has a trackpad.

The Legion Go’s battery life isn’t great, lasting only a few hours on a full charge. Of course, Windows laptops generally tend to lose their charge quickly. While it’s not ideal, the Legion Go has a fast charging feature that lets you fill up to 70% in about 30 minutes.

It has a pair of USB-C 4.0 ports, a microSD card slot to expand your storage, and a 3.5mm headphone jack.

Overall, the Legion Go is a well-rounded device – and if you’re looking for a Windows-powered handheld that offers wider access to PC games than Steam Deck, it’s certainly worth a look – especially if you really want a larger screen. .
