Lenovo Legion Go

A handheld gaming PC, just on a larger scale

- JACOB RIDLEY

FOUR YEARS AGO, gaming handhelds were barely on the radar. Today, there are numerous options from some of the biggest manufacturers around. You can now add Lenovo to that list, thanks to what is one of the sleekest-looking gaming handhelds so far.

The Lenovo Legion Go is an awfully good-looking device. It immediately feels like $700 well spent. It's mostly made up of an enormous 8.8-inch glossy touchscreen. This is the Go's most impressive feature by far: it's big, vibrant, responsive, and gives the impression of an almost edge-to-edge display.

It's not quite that, however, as the panel doesn't extend all the way to the edges of glossy layer on top. But it's still an entirely different beast to the compact Ayaneo Air 1S's 5.5-inch screen. Once you start gaming on it, it's engrossing in a way a more compact handheld can't be.
