    I hope Lenovo continue too make Lenovo legion gaming smartphones as it be very sad if they stopped making them as I personally rated them too be the best of the best for design as a gamer who want too record there gameplay walkthrough and livestream etc

    At least continue building the hardware as it's best just keep building phones with the original software as is as just because something is old don't mean that it is bad

    The Lenovo legion gaming Line of smartphone are really good and will still be great phones even for late buyer's as long as they production and sold at good prices

              My only concern is that, will this Lenovo legion Y70 will still get an os updates and security patches?? After they announced that they will discontinue making legion phones already, because what i heard before that they will give at least 3 years of os updates and 4 years of security patches, can someone please answer me

                Anonymous, 30 Mar 2023Darn. So it's just like LG's Dual Screen accessor... moreSome info on this:
                Due to how LG's dual screen works, to get low enough latency while still having enough bandwidth for HDR 1080P, the dual screen case for the V60 actually uses a wireless MMwave connection between the dual screen and the phone. The plug just sends power, not data. Hence why it only works with the phone it's for, as only that specific phone has the hardware to wirelessly connect to the dual screen.

                  YUKI93, 30 Mar 2023I'd do the same. What Sony have done with the Xperia S... moreIt makes sense to an extent, I mean who really wants to game for a long time on a smaller screen than absolutely necessary? I like mobile gaming, but it would suck on a smaller screen. Obviously that's up for debate. I think that's probably the reason though. It would be cool if it existed however.

                    Anonymous, 30 Mar 2023Because gaming oriented phones are a gimmick. XDWell most devices now are gimmicks anyways, just buy what you want. Gaming phones are gimmicks to non mobile gaming users, and Mainstream phones lack gaming specific features for mobile gamers.

                                  I am not playing games but I bought a Legion Y70 because of its great design and performance, one of the best value/price in the world

                                    Even Black Shark is in a lot of troubles right now. So far from what we can hear from employees inside, their Black Shark 6 series has been cancelled and Black Shark as a company has been delaying in salary payment to its employees for months. Technically speaking the only 2 competitive gaming phone brands still in the game are Nubis's Red Magic series and ASUS's ROG Phone series.

                                      RIP Legion tablet. Best 8 inch tablet from Android in years. Hopefully that product can be reintroduced in their Lenovo Pad lineup.

What Sony have done with the Xperia Stream accessory for Xperia 1 is absolutely brilliant. It's just a shame that Sony didn't make it for the Xperia 5 as well.
