Lenovo Launches Legion Go 2 With OLED Display and Ryzen Z2 for October Release

Lenovo is prioritizing performance over portability to court enthusiasts.

Overview

  • The 8.8-inch 1920×1200 OLED adds 30–144Hz VRR and HDR TrueBlack 1000, paired with up to an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme, 32GB LPDDR5X-8000 and a 2TB PCIe Gen4 SSD.
  • A 74Wh battery, enlarged chassis and updated cooling drive a thicker profile to 0.90 inches without controllers and 1.66 inches with them.
  • Redesigned detachable TrueStrike controllers bring hall‑effect sticks, a pivot D‑pad, three programmable buttons and the returning FPS vertical‑mouse mode, with backward compatibility for the first‑gen Legion Go.
  • The device ships with Windows, and Lenovo has not announced a SteamOS version for this model.
  • Sales start in October with a reported base price in the low four figures—most outlets cite $1,049, though some list $1,099—with higher configurations up to $1,479.99.
