Lenovo Legion Go S with SteamOS is hundreds off today, The Verge reports

Lenovo’s Legion Go S handheld running SteamOS is discounted by hundreds of dollars today, according to The Verge. The price cut matters because it pushes Lenovo’s device into direct competition with Valve’s Steam Deck OLED, which The Verge lists at $789. With SteamOS onboard, it runs the same software ecosystem, easing the switch for existing Steam Deck owners.

The Verge reports the Legion Go S adds two-stage triggers, a larger eight-inch IPS screen at 1080p and up to 120Hz versus the Deck OLED’s 800p at 90Hz, and doubles both RAM and storage. The outlet describes the handheld as fast and comfortable and says the markdown amounts to several hundred dollars, though exact pricing depends on configuration and retailer. Watch for confirmation of final sale prices, availability windows, and whether the discount extends beyond initial inventory. [Developing. This article will be updated.]
