Following its previous report with leaked images of the device, Windows Report has now shared detailed specifications and release date for the Lenovo Legion GO Steam Deck/Nintendo Switch-inspired PC portable.
Thanks to a leaked Lenovo document received from an anonymous source, Windows Report learned that the Lenovo Legion Go would debut on September 1st at the annual IFA, the largest consumer electronics and trade appliance show, which will take place at the Messe Berlin between September 1 and 5.
The Lenovo Legion Go is expected to launch in stores starting in October for $799, which is definitely in the high-end range for portable PCs. Then again, its specifications may warrant it: the leak says customers will be treated to a massive 8.8-inch 1600p (2560×1600) screen with up to 144Hz refresh rate.
That is by far the largest screen of any competitor, save for the GPD Win Max 2 which, however, fills a different niche since it comes with a built-in keyboard. The GPD Win Max 2 also sports the old Ryzen 7 6800U chipset, whereas the Lenovo Legion Go is confirmed (following last week’s leak) to be sporting the latest AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme.
On the flipside, the Lenovo Legion Go will be the heaviest of these devices (again, except for the GPD Win Max 2), weighing 854 grams when its controllers are attached. The ASUS ROG Ally weighs only 608 grams. Its battery of 49.2WHr may also be a bit of a thorn in the device’s side, especially when playing at high refresh rates, although the Super Rapid Charge feature is supported for faster charging.

Lenovo is also preparing a companion accessory: the AR Legion Glasses. Also scheduled to launch in October, they’ll be priced at $499 with the following specs:
| Lenovo Legion Glasses | |

The good news is that it sounds like the Legion Glasses will work with any device packing USB-C DP Alt mode compatibility rather than just with the Lenovo Legion Go.
Lastly, Lenovo plans to release the wired E510 7.1 RGB Gaming In-Ear Headphones. Powered by 10mm armature drivers, they’ll also launch in October for a recommended pricing of $49.99.
