The Legion Go 2 offers a 50 percent increase in battery life compared to its predecessor, with a 74 watt-hour battery. It also includes a fingerprint reader in the power button, which is becoming a standard feature on Windows handhelds. The device's screen resolution has been reduced to 1920 x 1200, making it easier for the new Z2 or Z2 Extreme chips to deliver smoother gameplay [1].
Lenovo has not yet announced a SteamOS version of the Legion Go 2, and the device will not initially support the Xbox full-screen experience. The Legion Go 2 is available for pre-order at Best Buy and will officially hit shelves next month. The price point of the Legion Go 2 is higher than its predecessor, with the base model starting at $1,099.99, and the top-tier model priced at $1,479.99 [1].
The Legion Go 2 is positioned to compete with other high-end gaming handhelds, such as the MSI Claw 8 AI Plus. While the price point is higher, the device offers improved performance and features that may appeal to gamers seeking a premium handheld experience. Lenovo has also introduced a more affordable option, the Legion Go S with SteamOS, for those who do not require the Windows platform [1].
