Professional Reviews
5 reviews from 5 critics“The Legion Go 2 looks so damn nice. You'll have to pay through the nose for it.”
“The hardware is excellent, but the high price and the Windows 11 experience are huge drawbacks.”
“The Lenovo Legion Go 2 boosts performance at low resolutions with the AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme.”
“But is that worth the sharply increased price? That answer is obviously going to be different for everyone, but it’s a hard sell, especially considering the Xbox Ally X launches only two weeks after this handheld gaming PC.”
