The Legion Go S marks a significant departure from its predecessor’s design. Where the original Legion Go featured innovative elements like detachable controllers and a built-in kickstand, the new model takes a more minimalist approach. Visually, the device adopts a white colorway similar to the ASUS ROG Ally, which interestingly contrasts with the black design of the upgraded ROG Ally X. This color choice suggests a premium feel despite the device’s cost-cutting measures.
One of the most intriguing aspects of the Legion Go S is its screen size. With the 8ARP1 codename suggesting an 8-inch display, the device might actually offer a slightly larger screen than the ROG Ally’s 7-inch panel. This potential increase in screen real estate is unexpected for a more budget-friendly model and could be a pleasant surprise for potential buyers.
Lenovo has made some practical adjustments to the device’s layout. The USB-C ports will now be positioned on top of the device, and the menu and view buttons have been repositioned toward the top.
