Sure thing! Here we go:

So, picture this: the Lenovo Legion Go, not exactly hot off the press in the world of handheld consoles, but still a force with that Z1 Extreme chip and a hearty 16GB RAM. Oh, and let’s not forget the 512GB SSD. Used to be $699.99 — a bit steep, right? But as of now, Amazon’s got it slashed to $499.99. That’s a cool 30% off its MSRP, meaning you pocket $200. It wasn’t branded a Prime Day 2025 steal, but gosh, it’s a sweet deal nonetheless. Oddly enough, though, it’s cheaper than the newer kid, the Legion Go S, which rocks an AMD Z2 but is still way pricier at $589.99. Go figure.
The cherry on top with the Legion Go? Its massive 8.8-inch display totally eats competition like the Asus Ally ROG X for breakfast. If you’re the type to dive into virtual worlds and couldn’t care less about sliding it into a pocket, it’s the dream. Plus, there are two USB-C ports. You can juice it up and hook up to a big screen at the same time. Oh, and those detachable controllers? Yeah, one magically turns into a mouse for those FPS marathons. If you’re like me and love sprawling on a hotel room bed after a day of playing tourist, this is your jam.
Alright, let’s ramble about graphics — if you’re hungry for more, the USB-C ports are USB4. Hello, Thunderbolt 3/4 enclosures! You could snag a Legion Go with a USB-C hub too, and transform it into a mini gaming PC or even a workstation at home, if that tickles your fancy.
And why wouldn’t you be tearing your hair out about missing this? It’s $499. Not bleeding-edge tech, sure, but hey, it’s been a while — December, if memory serves — since it hit rock-bottom price. Even if the holiday season usually tempts you into buying gadgets, waiting seems silly right now.
While I’m at it, scope out those juicy deals we’re scrounging up for Amazon Prime Day. Our Live page is buzzing with the best finds. Fancy hunting for other tech bargains? We’ve got pages dedicated to SSDs, storage, gaming monitors — the works.
