Overview

  • Announced at IFA 2025, the Legion Go 2 ships in October as a Windows 11 device, with Lenovo saying it is not announcing a SteamOS version at launch.
  • The 8.8-inch 1920×1200 OLED display supports true 30–144Hz variable refresh and VESA HDR TrueBlack 1000, a step up from the prior IPS panel.
  • Configurations include AMD Ryzen Z2 or Z2 Extreme APUs, up to 32GB LPDDR5X-8000 memory, up to 2TB PCIe Gen4 storage, and Radeon 890M integrated graphics.
  • Battery capacity rises to 74Wh (about 50% larger than the original), alongside a thicker, heavier chassis, dual USB4 ports, microSD UHS‑II, a 3.5mm jack, and a new power‑button fingerprint reader.
  • Redesigned detachable TrueStrike controllers add Hall‑effect sticks, a pivot D‑pad, three programmable buttons, and an improved FPS mouse mode, and they are backward compatible with the first‑gen Legion Go.
