The Legion Go is equipped with an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, Radeon 700M Series GPU, 16GB of RAM, 512GB SSD, and a huge 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 back buttons and there’s also a mouse scroll wheel. The right controller has a trackpad, too.
The Legion Go’s battery life isn’t great, as it only lasts upwards of a few hours on a full charge. Granted, handheld Windows PCs tend to lose their charge quickly in general. Though not ideal, the Legion Go does have a rapid charging feature that allows you to refuel to 70% in around 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 handheld with Windows that offers broader access to PC games than Steam Deck, it’s certainly worth a look–especially if you really want a larger screen.

To keep your Legion Go’s screen pristine, you’ll want to grab a screen protector. You can get a two-pack of amFilm tempered glass protectors for $9 at Amazon. If you want to add extra protection and grip to the handheld, check out this $13 grip case. For travel, ButterFox makes a spacious hardshell carrying case with room for small accessories and the power adapter.
Lastly, you’ll probably want to dock your Legion Go from time to time to play on your TV or monitor. One of the most popular Legion Go docking stations is on sale for $27 (was $40) at Amazon.
