Moreover, the Legion Go also has up to 16GB LPDDR5X (7500Mhz) RAM and up to 1TB PCIe Gen4 SSD. To get more space, you can slot in a microSD card with up to 2TB of extra storage. It also has a 49.2Wh battery but we don't really know how long can it be used for gaming. Nonetheless, it has Super Rapid Charge technology and can recharge the battery up to 70% in just 30 minutes.

Additionally, Lenovo confirmed that the Legion Go can reach up to 25W of TGP in custom mode. To prevent any heat issues, the company integrated its own Coldfront thermal technology which has a liquid crystal polymer 79-blade fan that keeps the device cool at less than 25dB of fan noise in Quiet Mode.

There's an integrated trackpad on the right controller and the Legion Go has 10 mappable should buttons, triggers and grip buttons. The controllers are detachable and allow FPS mode. Lenovo said FPS mode relies on "the right detached controller placed into an included controller base that attaches via magnet, and the optical eye at the bottom of the controller allows for more precise aiming and control necessary during competitive FPS games, akin to using a mouse".

Lastly, there are a pair of USB C ports on the Legion Go, allowing users to dock and charge the device while simultaneously connecting accessories, The USB Cs support DisplayPort 1.4 and Power Delivery 3.0 support, as well as connectivity extends to Wi-Fi 6E as well as Bluetooth 5.2 support.
