Lenovo reveals a SteamOS variant of the Legion Go 2 at CES
"There aren't any surprises here. It's the same Lenovo Legion Go 2 hardware, with SteamOS replacing the sometimes-awkward Windows. In many ways, you could view the SteamOS Legion Go 2 as a more powerful and versatile (and expensive!) Steam Deck. One notable exception is the optimizations game developers often make for Valve's handheld. (Ditto for "Steam Deck Verified" badges on store listings to learn quickly how playable games.)"
"So, all the specs from the Windows version carry over. That includes a spacious 8.8-inch OLED display at 1,920 x 1,200 and with a 144Hz VRR. You still have two tiers to choose from: Ryzen Z2 / 16GB / 1TB or Ryzen Z2 Extreme / 32GB / 2TB. The device has a microSD slot, kickstand, detachable controllers and a 74Wh battery. At 2.2 lbs, it's a bulky affair, so you'll want to look elsewhere if a light, compact handheld is your priority."
Lenovo will release a SteamOS variant of the Legion Go 2 in June, with the entry-level configuration starting at $1,199. The hardware remains identical to the Windows model but runs SteamOS, positioning the handheld as a more powerful and versatile (and more expensive) alternative to the Steam Deck while lacking some Valve-specific optimizations and Steam Deck Verified badges. The device offers an 8.8-inch 1,920 x 1,200 OLED display with 144Hz VRR, two configuration tiers (Ryzen Z2 16GB/1TB and Ryzen Z2 Extreme 32GB/2TB), microSD support, kickstand, detachable controllers, and a 74Wh battery. The handheld weighs 2.2 pounds and is relatively bulky. Pricing for the Z2 Extreme tier has not been announced.
