Any plans for a keyboard? With the detachable controllers and FPS/mouse mode, it’s easy to see the Go as an occasional laptop replacement.

me encantaria poder probarlo y aprender a sacar el mejor redimiento

"Where can I learn how to use it and make the most of it?" (maybe they´d be some tutorials Lenovo´s website? would it be translated to Spanish?) 🤔

Hello, does the legion go support Microsoft’s pen service protocol. Basically pen sensitivity. I’d really hope it supports it. I really want to sell my m1 iPad and steam deck for it.
The new new legion y700 (2023) seems to support pressure density , I really hope this tablet does too.

The only question I have is:

Will the Legion Go support VRR?

Thanks!

[momomoto]

First, thanks for the answers!

But I got some:

1. Will the screen have VRR enable at launch or in the near future? if not what are the limitations about enabling this feature on the Legion Go?

2. About thermals, is one fan enough to cool such a big device? will it be able to play demanding games without thermal throttle?

3. When the legion go will be sent to the press and reviewers?

Thanks in advance!

I just wonder if they're any website i can preorder it now in the USA. thanks in advance

[dinjarrus]

Why did the official Lenovo product spec page include VRR as a feature and then it was quickly removed following the announcement?

Will VRR be a feature or not? Or will it be region specific?

also, when will Pre-orders start and when will it be available in-store?

thanks!

Question: is a higher-end 32GB LPDDR5X version being considered?

Certifications aren't very important, especially if there isn't any local dimming. What we'd like to know is whether or not the screen can take a 10bit or 12bit HDR signal.
Even if it doesn't have local dimming, supporting a HDR signal should avoid color banding in lower brightness scenes.

Of course changing from 144 to 60 will help extend battery life, and same for lowering brightness, but overall downshifting to 48/36 is not quite more effective than 60 for battery life.

It's not for battery life, it's to be able to adjust the screen refresh rate to whatever stable framerate we can achieve with the device, and then VSync that framerate.
If the Legion Go does e.g. minimum 45FPS on Starfield, with VSync and 144Hz we'd get 36FPS (four 144Hz frames in a row) because it's to slow for the previous VSynced step (48FPS, 3 144Hz frames in a row).
If we could lower the refresh rate to e.g. 135Hz, then that would match with the 45FPS output (45Hz is three 135Hz frames in a row).

This is why the Steam Deck lets us configure the screen refresh rate in 1Hz steps, between 40Hz minimum and 60Hz maximum. It has nothing to do with battery life, just to be able to squeeze as many "quality frames" (i.e. vsynced, without tearing) as we can get from the CPU/GPU.
They allow this on a game by game basis, for example.

Does the Legion Go have the screw thread for installing a 2230 NVMe? Some of us have already invested in a 2230 2TB+ SSD for our previous device and would like to use it on the Legion Go if possible.
Because of previous devices like the Steam Deck, we're also at a point where 2230 NVMe drives are actually cheaper than 2242 ones, as weird as it sounds.




Thanks for your time!

Hi there! Thanks for the answers!

Just want to ask one question that the community from wants to know.

Does the Legion Go have VRR?

[thefooz]

Thank you so much for doing this AMA. I wanted to ask about the maximum tdp a user could set on the device.

The device page states a max of 20 W, your press release states a max of 25 W “tgp”, we’ve seen images from review units that show a max of 48 W and some that show a max of 25.

The community is really anxious to know which of these is the real number. Can you please help us put this to bed?
