Lenovo’s Legion Go S: A Price War Victim

In a world where tech prices are soaring, even gaming gadgets can’t escape the hike.

The Lenovo Legion Go S, once a $829.99 gaming device, now costs nearly double at $1,579.99 for its best version. This price surge is part of RAMageddon, the tech industry’s global struggle with soaring component prices.


Lenovo isn't the only one battling this trend: other devices like the Asus Xbox Ally X and MSI Claw 8 AI Plus have also seen significant hikes. The SteamOS version now costs $1,679.99, while Windows versions are even pricier at Best Buy and Walmart.


Some listings for various models of Lenovo’s device have vanished from retailer sites, suggesting the company may be discontinuing them in light of these price increases. With no immediate response from Lenovo to our inquiries, we can only speculate on their next move.


The global RAM shortage is hitting all kinds of hardware but gaming gadgets are taking it particularly hard. From the Steam Deck’s elusive availability to Meta’s $100 increase for the Quest 3, and even PlayStation 5 price hikes, it seems nothing is immune to this tech inflation.
