What We Know So Far

The current Legion Go model features:

  • 8.8-inch display
  • AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor
  • 16GB LPDDR5X RAM
  • Up to 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD storage
  • Single cooling fan
  • 49.2WHr battery

It's unclear if the rumored new model will maintain these same internal specifications or if Lenovo plans to make additional changes beyond the screen size and cooling system.

Potential Market Impact

If confirmed, a smaller Legion Go could appeal to users wanting a more portable option while still benefiting from the device's Windows-based gaming capabilities. The addition of an HDMI port would also enhance connectivity options for those who want to use the handheld with external displays.

What's Next?

As this information comes from an unofficial source, albeit Lenovo's own website, we'll need to wait for an official announcement to confirm the details of any new Legion Go models. The gaming handheld market continues to be competitive, with players like Valve's Steam Deck and the ASUS ROG Ally vying for consumer attention.
