The success that portable consoles are having is extremely great, being one of the main reasons why many companies have developed their own versions with an aesthetic similar to what the Steam Deck or the Nintendo Switch may have. But not all of them have had the same success, since there are some that, despite being quite good, incorporated a large number of unnecessary parameters that made the price quite expensive, so companies like Lenovo have chosen to create a more basic but powerful model, and now we know what the brand’s new console will bring, the Legion S.
With the arrival of the Steam Deck we were able to see how a large number of users began to use hardware that, although it was not too powerful, allowed them to play a wide variety of titles without having to depend on a laptop or desktop computer, making it much easier. Being able to use it anywhere without it being uncomfortable. This is something that we have been seeing for a long time with Nintendo consoles, while now, other companies have joined in to try to gain a foothold in a market that they can take full advantage of.
The new Lenovo console will arrive to rival the Steam Deck
One of the main aspects of the first Lenovo console was the fact that it had much more powerful hardware than the Steam Deck, as well as a series of additional functions such as the controls being removable. But apparently, this time the company wants to change the way of doing things, since the design is very different as could be seen in previous leaks, the one called Lenovo Legion Litewhich we now know as Legion Go Swill have a much simpler design, reminiscent of the Nintendo Switch Lite.
The hardware will be quite different, and the company itself had already leaked three different versions of this console that would incorporate AMD’s Z2 processors when registering them under its brand, although as such it was not known exactly what type of processor they were going to have, only that it would be the new version of AMD. And now, apparently the company has uploaded a version of the firmware of a console that does not yet exist, and that confirms both the existence of the new Legion Go S as the processors it will incorporate, according to Videocardz research.
Although they have already corrected the error and the page cannot be accessed, we could search for this firmware, under the name Lenovo Legion Go S 8ARP1, in which after accessing, it indicates exactly the APU model that it will incorporate, belonging to the Rembrandt version of the new AMD chips, which will have two additional processors. As we well know, Lenovo is preparing three different configurations, and in this case the biggest difference between each of the new consoles would be in the architecture used by the cores as well as the number of them in each APU, along with the integrated graphics. that they have.
