Why does Lenovo’s Legion Go appear like a competition for Steam Deck? 

Valve’s Steam Deck is immensely popular among gamers. Despite the presence of Asus ROG Ally, AYANEO 2S, Steam Deck continues to be a dominant PC handheld gaming device after its release in 2022.

Now Lenovo’s upcoming gaming device, Legion Go, announced it will offer a great platform to run PC games. Since then, fans deemed it one of the biggest competitors of Steam Deck. From a 3.3 Ghz base clock to an AMD Ryzen Z1 processor, Legion Go will probably introduce a new bar for high-speed gaming. Just not that, Lenovo will offer a Ryzen 7 7800 APU with 12 RDNA units and 7500 MHz LPDDR5X RAM. If you are still worried about storage issues, Lenovo’s Legion Go will cover that up with 1TB of internal space.
