Lenovo's big leak: an insider has revealed a promo reel of the new Legion Go 2 handheld gaming console
The IFA 2025 trade show is approaching, which will be held from 5 to 9 September in Berlin, and it looks like that's where Lenovo will unveil its new Legion Go 2 handheld gaming console.
Here's What We Know
Well-known insider Evan Blass has published a Lenovo Legion Go 2 promo video that leaves no doubt about the authenticity of the information.
The advert shows that the updated console, which is one of Steam Deck's main competitors, will get an 8.8″ OLED screen with a 144Hz refresh rate and VRR support.
The updated controllers will now feature six programmable buttons, whereas the previous Legion Go can only be customised with two buttons.
Also new is an integrated fingerprint scanner, and the main console will be an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme processor with eight cores and sixteen threads. The integrated graphics uses RDNA 3.5 architecture and has 16 compute units and a frequency of up to 2900 MHz.
The device supports multiple usage modes: tablet, console and FPS mode for shooters.
The Legion Go 2 case has a new coating, and the console will be protected from overheating by the updated Legion Coldfront cooling system.
It remains unknown what operating system Lenovo has chosen, but as a reminder, the previous model originally came out with Windows 11, but later it was joined by a variant with SteamOS, The choice is clear: a blogger proved the advantages of SteamOS over Windows 11 while using the operating system on Lenovo Legion Go S.
It is known that Lenovo will offer buyers a Legion Go Dock and a branded Legion Go Sling Bag.
If the gadget will really be presented at IFA 2025 - obviously, there will also sound the price and the date of the beginning of sales.
