Some latest leaks have shown the Lenovo Android handheld console, Legion Play is coming. Legion Play will be Lenovo’s answer to Valve’s Steam Deck and Nintendo’s Switch lineup. Lenovo’s console was intended to launch at MWC 2021 as evidence retrieved by Liliputing from Lenovo’s website shows though it remains a mystery why it didn’t.

The Legion Play is described as an Android cloud gaming console designed for AAA gaming allowing users to play mobile games and stream their PC game libraries all on one device. The device packs a 7-inch FHD display with HDR 10 support and a 16:9 aspect ratio. There are also dual speakers and a 7,000 mAh battery.

The key selling point for this hardware would certainly be the built-in controllers. The button layout has a top-mounted joystick on the left with a D-Pad underneath with ABXY buttons on the right with a joystick underneath.

The console appears to be running a modified version of Android. One of the screens shows it supports Nvidia’s GeForce Now platform. It remains to be seen which other game streaming services will be supported on the device as well as the rest of the hardware details behind it. Rounding out the hardware would be USB-C and a headphone jack. The hardware itself is also remarkably thin.

Some reports are also claiming that Legion Play was the “Lenovo Legion Phone Duel H20 Edition,” which is an Android-powered gaming smartphone with 18GB of RAM, 1TB of storage, and water cooling. This device, though, is just a concept for now.
