The handheld, with detachable controllers and an 8.8-inch display, is $437.75 with the coupon code OUTLET10 at checkout.
Lenovo's original Legion Go has an 8.8-inch, 144 Hz screen, Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD. It also features detachable controllers. Use the code OUTLET10 at checkout.
This isn't the newest handheld; Lenovo already has supplanted it with the Legion Go 2 . But at this price, the first Legion Go is still worth a look. You get an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, 16GB of RAM, and a 512GB SSD, as well as the only major system with detachable controllers (well, besides its predecessor). The 8.8-inch screen is large, and while it's not OLED, we thought it looked great in our testing . Perhaps more importantly, this deal makes the Legion Go cheaper than the Steam Deck OLED , which now starts at $549 after Valve axed the 256GB LCD base model . The Z1 Extreme and the custom chip in the Steam Deck OLED are often comparable, though Lenovo's system can get an extra boost on battery power. The Legion Go comes running Windows 11, which may be a turnoff for some, but the Windows Full Screen Experience that debuted on the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X is rolling out, which might help ease that pain. Either way, this is a pretty great price for a handheld, even if there's a more recent one available. While many of the goods on Lenovo's Outlet store are used, this one is new. You won't get an OLED screen, and sure, 2560 x 1600 might be overkill for gaming with this chip, but if you're looking to dip your toe into handheld gaming for less than $500, this deal is well worth considering.
