If you’ve ever wanted a grown-up Gameboy then it seems we’re now heading a golden age. The likes of theSteam DeckandAsus ROG Allypack some impressive gaming hardware into portable units, but now Lenovo is getting in on the act too.

Under the surface, Windows Central are pretty confident we can expect an AMD Phoenix 7040 processor, an ultra-thin chipset used in ultrabooks. But it’s the display that has us sitting up and taking note. The Steam Deck and Rog Ally both have 7-inch screens, but rumours suggest that Lenovo could plump for an 8-inch option which would definitely help on more text-intensive and complicated games. It will be interesting to see what price point Lenovo targets, with the 256GB Steam Deck coming in at around £459/$529 and the ROG Ally’s £699/$699 pricetag (although a cheaper model is coming). That puts them as a fair chunk cheaper than most of thebest gaming laptops.
The portable gaming PC market does look set to be a big business in the future. More companies are rumoured to be working on equivalents while Valve itself could soon announce a Steam Deck 2. Of course, it won’t play PC games, but there is also a wide belief that theNintendo Switch 2will launch in 2024.
