Following on from last year’s Glasses T1, Lenovo has announced a Legion-branded variant that promises a portable, large-screen experience.
Lenovo is no stranger to XR hardware, but with its latest pair of smart glasses, the company is gunning for a portable monitor that you can wear and dive right into immersive gaming. Launched alongside the Legion Go handheld gaming console, the Legion Glasses plug into that handheld via a USB Type-C port and instantly offer a larger canvas for playing games without having to worry about battery hassles.
Lenovo fittingly classifies them as « an advanced wearable virtual monitor, » one that plays well not only with the Legion Go but also with Android, Windows, and macOS machines equipped with a USB Type-C port. And to make up for the lack of AR or VR tricks, the company is focusing on the visual clarity aspect.
The centerpieces are micro-LED display units, with each one offering the equivalent of full-HD resolution per eye. The stem area also fits speaker units, so users don’t have to fiddle with pesky wires or the extra aural load from headphones or earbuds.
