Lenovo’s upcoming Legion Go handheld will feature a much faster variant too with AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme APUs & LPDDR5-7500 memory as identified in a leakage.
Lenovo Legion Go Handheld To Feature Better Specs Than ASUS’s ROG Ally, Powered By The Same AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme APU But Better RAM Options
Our previous coverage of the upcoming Lenovo portable highlighted several brand-new aspects one must expect with the Legion Go. Amongst them was the inclusion of different AR glasses for the portable gadget, possibly providing users with an immersive experience. However, we did question how Lenovo would eject such efficiency from an 8-inch device, however today’s info has actually created a brilliant picture.
The respectable fellow @AnhPhuH has actually gotten the anticipated specifications for”Legion Go “from BAPCo’s database, which exposes that the company will undoubtedly utilize both AMD Ryzen Z1 & Z1 Extreme APUs, which were made popular after the inclusion in ASUS’s ROG Ally. The processors hold tremendous power, which we will come later. Apart from the onboard powerhouse, it is also pointed out that the Legion Go will feature 16GB LPDDR5-7500 RAM, which is the fastest we have actually seen being made use of in a portable.
The benchmarks listed below reveal the basic Z1 APU leading the charge because it is set to the “Best Performance” mode whereas the Z1 Extreme configurations are set to “Best Battery” modes.
Lenovo Legion GO:
– AMD Ryzen Z1/ Z1 Extreme
– 16GB LPDDR5-7500
– 256/ 512GB M. 2 2242 NVMe (Samsung PM991/ WD SN740)

Lenovo isn’t made upin the screen department also, as it is rumored that the company will utilize an
8-inch screen with an optimum resolution of 2560×1600. Having such resolution in handhelds is a distinct element; however, it includes a battery life tradeoff. Hence we will need to see how the company handles this, specifically after the addition of AR glasses, which the gadget will also power. Lenovo is going for it here, that is particular. The AMD Ryzen Z1 APUs are exceptionally efficient in providing high-end performance
, and the “Extreme “variant exceeds the i9-9900K desktop in raw efficiency; thus it is clear that there is untapped capacity in the APUs. However, Lenovo’s method with the portable’s style, together with cooling and battery system, is something to look at since, by the appearances, it certainly isn’t a power-efficient device. The portable market has actually been aggressive this year, with releases from AYANEO and ASUS taking the spotlight. With the spark of Lenovo’s Legion Go, things have actually deviated. However, success does depend on how the company costs its console and the performance they bring onboard. We aren’t sure of a release date yet, but it is hypothesized to be somewhere in September, together with IFA 2023.
