The Lenovo Legion Go S was launched at CES 2025, though it arrived in the US earlier this month. Prior to release, fans expected it to be called the “Lite” due to its cut-down specs, but not many people are a fan of its starting price of $729.99. If you're not willing to pay the full price for the Legion Go S, you might want to check out this special offer at Best Buy, which makes it cheaper than the original (non-S) model.

If you want something in better condition, then you can opt for the ‘Excellent’ variant. This one costs a bit more, $614.99, but it still helps you save $115 over the brand-new one. Excellent means that the device works and looks like new. On top of that, it includes all original parts, packaging, and accessories.

In any case, the Lenovo Legion Go S offers an 8-inch LCD screen with a 1920 x 1200 resolution and a 16:10 aspect ratio. On top of that, it has a 120Hz refresh rate, thanks to which it delivers smooth visuals. In the heart of the device is the Ryzen Z2 Go processor, and you’ll also get 32GB of RAM paired with a 1TB SSD. There’s also a SteamOS model coming, which will be available in May 2025 with an expected price tag of $499.99.
If you’re interested in changing the color of the Legion Go S after you get it, then you’ll be soon able to do it using custom skins that are being made by M2 Skins. The company recently shared an update on the Legion Go subreddit, where they announced that they have finished designing skins for the Legion Go S, and they will be available on their site very soon.
