portable console with a large screen and side controllers with all the controls you need: dual joysticks, D-Pad, X, Y, A and B buttons, shoulder triggers and more.\u00a0At the bottom of the Legion Play, there is a USB-C port, a headset jack, and a built-in microphone, which can presumably be used for voice chat.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full

the Android operating system.\u00a0This is indicated by the image with the Google Play, YouTube, Google Drive and Chrome icons.\u00a0By the way, the game streaming service GeForce Now is also preinstalled here.\u00a0It remains unclear why Lenovo did not unveil the console earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Should the company decide to bring the Legion Play to market, it won't be the manufacturer's first handheld gaming device based on Android.\u00a0The company already has powerful gaming smartphones for China in its arsenal.<\/p>\n<!-- FeedbackWP Plugin --><div
