Lenovo is very proud of its upcoming gaming handheld, which utilizes the same AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme chipset that the ROG Ally did. It uses Windows 11 as its operating system and features detachable controllers.

The Legion Go is the most experimental gaming handheld since the Nintendo Switch thanks to its innovative new features such as a mouse wheel on the controller and a special new FPS mode to help give players more control in certain games. 

The Legion Go comes from a trusted brand, Lenovo, which is well-known for its reliable and well-priced personal computers and gaming laptops. For a while, it seemed like the ASUS ROG Ally might be the best gaming handheld out there, but its tendency to run hot near the microSD card slot can cause these cards to malfunction, which is a rather big problem. This being the case, the Legion Go seems to be the better device.

It features detachable controllers like the Nintendo Switch, officially labeled as TrueStrike controllers. The button and joystick layout on the front of the device is familiar to anyone who has used a gaming handheld before. However, there is also a mouse wheel button on the right controller that should help navigate specific menus and websites more efficiently. 

Regarding internal components, the Legion Go contains up to an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme with RDNA graphics, much like the ROG Ally does. It also has 16GB of RAM with two storage options: 512GB, or 1TB. Before testing, it's unclear how long the battery lasts for. However, Lenovo has made it so this gaming handheld supports Super Rapid Charge to get it to 70% battery in just 30 minutes, which helps people continue to play their games longer.
