Lenovo Legion Go 2 Review: A Handheld Made For Big, Meaty Claws
"My initial hours spent rolling my eyes at everything Lenovo failed to fix from its first iteration slowly morphed into the kind of appreciation that can only occur when a device starts to feel personal. It's what happened when I downloaded Hollow Knight: Silksong and Hades II to the device and had to hold back a gasp on a crowded plane for how gorgeous both games looked on Lenovo's big, expensive, beautiful display."
"Legion Go 2 It's thick, heavy, and so damn pretty. It's a shame it costs as much as it does. Beautiful OLED display 144Hz refresh rate with VRR New ergonomics Low-wattage performance uplift Annoying removable controls FPS mode is pointless Reflective display Very expensive at $1,350 It's the same feeling I get from Valve's $550 Steam Deck OLED, which uses the same organic light-emitting diode screen technology to present deeper contrast and rich colors."
Lenovo's Legion Go 2 prioritizes screen quality over raw performance, featuring an 8.8-inch, 1200p OLED display with 144Hz refresh rate and VRR that renders 2D titles with deep contrast and rich color. The handheld is thick and heavy with redesigned ergonomics and removable, but finicky, controls. Low-wattage performance shows modest uplift while an FPS mode feels pointless. The reflective display and high $1,350 price significantly reduce value compared with the $550 Steam Deck OLED and multiple Nintendo Switch 2 units. A top-tier configuration includes an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme CPU, 32GB RAM, and 1TB storage. Despite flaws, the display makes gameplay visually intoxicating.
