The Lenovo Legion Go, yeah, it’s not a brand new kinda deal in the world of handheld consoles, but it still packs a punch. It’s loaded with this Z1 Extreme chip, 16GB of RAM — which is more than I can say for my old laptop. Oh, and a 512GB SSD. Price tag? Originally $699.99, but bam! It’s down to $499.99 on Amazon. That’s slicing off 30% of its original price, leaves you with a neat $200 you didn’t spend. It’s not even one of those Prime Day 2025 stuffs but honestly, this price is pretty close to the lowest it’s ever been — only $17 above, like wow. Fun fact: this discount now makes the original Lenovo Legion cheaper than the less zippy Legion Go S, with its AMD Z2 Go chip, which now sits $90 higher on the price scale at $589.99 on Amazon. Go figure.
But wait, there’s a kicker! The Legion Go has this super advantage against rivals like, oh, the Asus Ally ROG X. It sports a bigger 8.8-inch screen. Immersive gaming? Check. Sacrificing portability? Also check, I guess. Plus, it’s got not one, but two USB-C ports—so charge it up, hook it to an external screen, whatever you fancy. And those detachable controllers? Genius. You can even turn one into a mouse for those FPS marathons. Yeah, no need to lug around extra controllers when you want to dominate your favorite games on that big hotel room TV after a day of sightseeing. I mean, unless sightseeing itself was the main game, but that’s a different story.
Craving more graphical muscle? No sweat. Those USB-C ports—wait, USB4 ports, let’s get it right—are Thunderbolt 3/4 compatible. Who even knows what any of this means half the time, but it sounds pretty techy. Want it as a mini gaming rig at home? Get the Legion Go with a USB-C hub. It’s like turning a handheld console into a workstation wizard.
Is it the freshest handheld out there? Nah. But it’s kinda irresistible at $499. It could be cheaper, but hey, last time we saw it this low was like, December last year. So if you aren’t in the mood to hold your breath till the holiday savings show up, maybe now’s the moment to snag a Legion Go.
