Today, Jin Jie, General Manager of Lenovo China’s Mobile Business Unit, began teasing the next generation of Lenovo Legion gaming phone: ‘When a gaming phone carries the Legion name, it essentially means an uncompromising pursuit of ultimate hardware specifications, breaking free from industry conventions in design to achieve the pinnacle of gaming experience. This spring is going to be exciting. We are coming soon!’
The name of the next-generation phone has not been confirmed yet, but it may be called the Lenovo Legion Pro 2.
Qualcomm announced its first batch of commercial partners at the Snapdragon 888 launch event, including Asus, Black Shark, Lenovo, LG, Meizu, Motorola, Nubia, Realme, OnePlus, OPPO, Sharp, Vivo, Xiaomi, and ZTE.
A Lenovo phone featuring the Snapdragon 870 chipset has already been released, and all that’s left is for the Snapdragon 888-powered device to make its debut. The Lenovo Legion gaming phone will be Lenovo’s first Snapdragon 888 device, and its cooling design may bring a breakthrough in performance.
Last July, Lenovo released the Legion Pro phone, which features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus chipset, up to 16GB of RAM, and 512GB of storage. The device has a 6.65-inch FHD OLED display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and supports a 144Hz refresh rate. Lenovo stated that this phone uses a liquid-cooling and copper-pipe cooling solution. It has dual 2500 mAh batteries and supports 90W fast charging, which can charge the battery to 50% in 10 minutes.
The Lenovo Legion Pro features a side pop-up camera with a 20MP sensor, suitable for selfies and game streaming. It has a 64MP rear main camera with an f/1.72 aperture, along with a 16MP wide-angle lens.
