Based mostly on the pictures, Lenovo’s tackle a PC gaming handheld seems to be so much like units such because the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally, but it surely additionally has so much in frequent with the Nintendo Swap. In keeping with Home windows Report, the Legion Go has an eight-inch display, photographs present two Pleasure-Con-like controllers that may be eliminated, and it even seems to have a large Swap OLED-like kickstand you could come out for tabletop gaming.
The Legion Go’s controllers look like a mix of the Swap’s flat however detachable Pleasure-Cons and the Steam Deck’s contoured however connected grips. There seems to be to be one contact pad on the suitable controller — by comparability, the Steam Deck has contact pads on either side — however the again of that proper controller additionally apparently has a wheel.
