Leaked Lenovo Legion Go 2 Will Make You Mad at Xbox and Nintendo
If you're on the fence about whether to snatch up a $450 Nintendo Switch 2, or if you're still hemming and hawing about that upcoming Xbox handheld made by Asus, there's one more device that looks set to make your wallet scream bloody murder. We haven't seen hide nor hair of Lenovo's Legion Go 2 for about six months now, but leaks suggest it could be the sequel handheld you were actually looking for, thanks to a major screen upgrade that neither Nintendo nor Xbox is offering for its current-gen handhelds. The story goes back to several posts on Reddit, where some users claimed there were a slew of leaked Legion Go 2 models available through China-centric prototype and aftermarket reseller Xianyu. While Gizmodo could not confirm there were Legion Go 2 units changing hands, Videocardz claims to have seen models up for sale on these Chinese sites. Either way, some users have already pushed out videos allegedly showing the ins and outs of Lenovo's upcoming sequel handheld. One, posted by YouTuber in yo, shows off a prototype with its 8.8-inch OLED display. It's still running regular old Windows, just like the original Legion Go S released earlier this year. Lenovo later unleashed its same handheld with SteamOS, which offered a major boost in performance. The prototype shown in that video is reminiscent of early prototypes we saw last year. Despite this being an early model, the 1200p OLED display at 144Hz and VRR—AKA variable refresh rate—is still the real star of the show. We don't mind the Switch 2's 7.9-inch display despite ghosting issues that leave some games—especially fast-paced sidescrollers—looking blurry. Nor did we have many complaints about the Asus ROG Ally X's smaller screen, save for its relatively low brightness. Let's face it, OLED still wins every day. The Steam Deck OLED has a 720p display, and yet we still prefer it to most handhelds we've used that are still beholden to IPS LCD. Lenovo is likely waiting for Microsoft to release its version of Windows built specifically for handhelds. It essentially uses the Xbox app as the front-end user interface for accessing all your games on Xbox as well as third-party launchers like Steam and Epic Games Store. Like SteamOS, it will also dual-boot with a regular version of Windows for users to access all their regular apps. Microsoft hasn't offered a release date for that Windows version, but it could arrive later this year and would have backward support for all previous Windows-based handhelds. I first went hands-on with the Legion Go 2 at CES back in January. The device was still just a prototype, but AMD had the machine running with its upcoming Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip, which is supposed to be the next big thing for handheld performance. I didn't have any time to test its overall performance or to get a feel for its improved ergonomics with its detachable controllers. The videos of leaked Legion Go 2 models show off how you can still detach each side of the device to go controllers akimbo. The right-side control stick can still act as a mouse cursor for playing FPS or RTS games, though we'd have to test whether it's as smooth and accurate as Nintendo's Switch 2 mouse controls proved to be. The YouTuber did include an internal specs sheet for the device. This version of the Legion Go 2 apparently didn't house a Z2 Extreme chipset but a regular Z2. The higher-end AMD APU—or accelerated processing unit with graphics capabilities—isn't using AMD's latest chip microarchitecture, Zen 5. It's still a Zen 4 chip, which will likely be closest in performance to the previous gen's Ryzen Z1 Extreme. This indicates there will likely be a lower-cost version of the Legion Go 2 to accompany a pricier model. This version also included 32GB of LPPDR5 7,500MHz RAM, which would put it in the higher echelons of gaming handhelds where memory is concerned. Lenovo hasn't given any indication on how much the Legion Go 2 would cost. Let's put any dewy-eyed hope to rest—it's not going to be cheap. The ROG Xbox Ally was already tipped to cost a pretty penny. If the Xbox Ally X with Z2 Extreme demands $1,000 or more, it almost guarantees the Legion Go 2 will be nearly as pricey with its larger and better-looking display. Look what happened to the MSI Claw 8 AI+, which went from $900 to $1,000, likely due to Trump tariffs. Getting the best display on the most powerful handheld will inevitably demand more from your wallet.

Nintendo Switch 2 OLED prototype frames may have just leaked — here's what we know
The Nintendo Switch 2 has only recently launched — and is very tough to buy — but rumors of an OLED model have been surfacing, and alleged prototype frames have now allegedly appeared online. As spotted on the Chinese marketplace Xianyu, also known as Goofish (via Wccftech), a user is selling "Switch 2 OLED middle frame" prototypes, which are apparently "Nintendo trial production research and development" samples. The mid-frames share a similar design to the Switch 2, but notably, they come in more of a white colorway, not unlike the Nintendo Switch OLED. However, it also features a black exterior, hinting at subtle colors like the launch Switch 2 console. There's no telling if these frames are specifically made for a rumored Switch 2 OLED model, are just prototypes or are leftovers from the original Switch 2. However, it gives us a hint that a Switch 2 OLED model may be coming down the line. The user has a track record of selling many components of devices that appear straight from production factories, including for a PS5 Slim and Amazon Kindle Paperwhite frames. Of course, seeing as Nintendo has yet to officially announce any word of a Switch 2 OLED, it isn't certain if the prototypes are accurate. The Switch 2 OLED model has seen few other rumors so far. A Bloomberg report says Samsung is pushing to be a panel supplier should the refreshed model materialize. The original Switch OLED launched four years after the OG Switch, and seeing as the Switch 2 only launched in June, it's looking like it may be a while until we see a Switch 2 OLED arriving. However, if these prototype frames are accurate, it could be a sign that Nintendo is already working on the design of an expected OLED model. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Currently, the Switch 2 features a 7.9-inch LCD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10 support. It's a bigger size compared to the 7-inch OLED panel on the Switch OLED, and much larger than the original Switch's 6.2-inch size. Perhaps a potential Switch 2 OLED will come with an even bigger display. For now, it's still all up in the air. It's still hard enough to find a Nintendo's latest console as it is, but if you're looking to nab one instead of waiting for a possible OLED model, check out the latest Nintendo Switch 2 restock updates.

Google Pixel 10 prototype pops up on a Chinese auction site — here's what it reveals
At this point we're about a month away from Google's launch of the Pixel 10 series and leaks are starting to pick up the pace and from some unusual places. The latest alleged leak comes from a Chinese auction site, Xianyu (spotted by 9to5Google). According to the seller's description (machine translated) the device is a Google Pixel 10 motherboard from an EVT unit. EVT stands for "Engineering Validation Testing," one of the last stages before mass production. The listing shows a Tensor G5-labeled motherboard along with two images of the phone. They are also listing the motherboard for 7,777 yuan or about $1,080 USD. Compared to a lot of prototype rumors, this one is a bit sketchy. The description mostly focuses on avoiding scammers and saying that the person who took the photos is a scammer. Beyond that, there are other odd bits including the screen designating the phone as DVT (Design Validation Test) rather than EVT. That said, the photos appear to show a device that looks similar to renders we've seen of Google's base model Pixel. Though, it does look very similar to previous Pixels with its rounded corners and flat edges. The back features the "G" logo and a the traditional horizontal camera bump. The cameras appear to have three lenses, indicating the addition of a telephoto lens, an upgrade over the two lenses in the Pixel 9, which seems to confirm previous camera rumors. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. The motherboard has a G5 marking but as regular Samsung leaker Jukan Choi pointed out, it is also labled SEC, indicating Samsung made the chip. That matters as a number of rumors have claimed that Google is switching from Samsung to TSMC to manufacture the Tensor chips going forward, starting with the G5. If this is a true prototype, it's possible that Google could have considered sticking with Samsung this year before switching to TSMC. However, we don't know how old this prototype is and the scammer-focused description doesn't elucidate. The picture Jukan Choi shared does seem very similar to the one from the Xianyu listing. How true this prototype and the chip info are will come to light on August 13 when Google is expected to launch the new phones.

Real-world Google Pixel 10 Pro images just leaked from an unlikely place
TL;DR Photos of an apparent Pixel 10 Pro have appeared on a Chinese auction website. The photos show the front and back of what appears to be a prototype phone. This comes a while after we saw leaked renders of the Pixel 10 series. Google is expected to launch the Pixel 10 series in the coming weeks, and we've already seen apparent specs and leaked renders. Now, it looks like real-world images of the Pixel 10 Pro may have appeared online. A seller on China's Xianyu auction website posted a listing for a Pixel 10 Pro motherboard (h/t: winner00 on Discord). The user included a photo of the apparent motherboard as well as real-world pictures of the purported phone. Check them out below. The seller also claims that this motherboard and phone are engineering prototypes (EVT). The unique patterns on the phone's back cover lend further credence to this claim. Google often uses these patterns to help identify prototypes and thwart leaks. The phone's fastboot menu and a sticker below the camera bar also mention 'DVT' (design validation test), which is a type of early prototype. Otherwise, the pictures show a phone with a design in line with previously leaked renders. We can also make out a periscope lens, which would align with earlier leaks. We already have a solid idea of what to expect when Google eventually launches the Pixel 10 series. These phones will pack the Tensor G5 chipset, which would be the first Tensor chip produced by TSMC. Furthermore, the standard Pixel 10 will gain a triple rear camera setup thanks to the addition of a telephoto shooter. However, the Pro phones are expected to offer the same camera system once again. In any event, leaks suggest we may have to wait until August 20 for the Pixel 10 series reveal. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .
