It’s powered by the AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor with AMD RDNA graphics that will definitely see a massive benefit after FSR 3 launches in the near future.

One of the biggest complaints about PC gaming handhelds so far has been battery life, which Lenovo has directly addressed with a 49.2Wh capacity battery. On top of that, a Super Rapid Charge feature will get you back up to 70% battery life in just 30 minutes.

On top of all this, Lenovo has revealed the Legion AR glasses that are compatible with just about every device with a USB-C port and they’ve even created matching 7.1 surround sound earbuds.
