Lenovo has finally unveiled its new gaming smartphone, the Legion Phone Duel 2. With a truly unique design, an innovative cooling system and tons of gaming features, the Lenovo smartphone aims to meet the needs of the most extreme users at a very attractive price.Design is perhaps what jumps most to the eye of Lenovo Legion Phone Duel 2.

The Dual HaptiX haptic feedback system guarantees users a type of response very similar to that of classic console controllers. The Octa-Trigger touch controls integrated in the frame and in the body of the smartphone will unlock new practical game modes.
The display is a 6.96 ″ AMOLED with 144Hz refresh rate and 720Hz touch sampling! The panel obviously supports HDR10 + and has a resolution of 2460 × 1080 pixels. Much emphasis was also placed on the 44MP popup camera positioned on one side to allow for webcam-style use while streaming.

The Lenovo Legion Phone Duel 2 Wants Everything in Pairs
As a follow up to last year’s Legion Phone Duel (aka Legion Phone Pro in China), Lenovo is back with another souped-up gaming phone with the Legion Phone Duel 2. As the name implies, the Legion Phone Duel 2 wants to do things in pairs–dual cooling fans, dual-battery setup, dual rear cameras, dual stereo speakers, and dual USB-C charging.
Sticking to the same side-mounted pop-up front camera, the Legion Phone Duel 2 upgrades the selfie snapper into a 44-megapixel ISOCELL GH1+ that can shoot 4K video at up to 60FPS. Compared to its predecessor, the Legion 2 Pro gets a significantly bigger display that is close to 7 inches. Like its predecessor, you are getting a gorgeous AMOLED panel with Full HD+ resolution, 720hz touch response rate, and a 144hz refresh rate to keep you ahead of the game.
Just like any proper gaming phone, the Legion Phone duel 2 rocks the best possible internals out there: Snapdragon 888, up to 18GB RAM, and up to 512GB internal storage. The Legion Phone Duel 2 one-ups both the ROG Phone 5 and Red Magic 6 by having a dual-fan cooling system within the phone itself–on top of a liquid cooling chamber. You also get a total of four shoulder buttons–two on the back of the phone and two as touch points on the display–for mapping your game controls.
For the cameras, the Legion Phone Duel 2 is utilizing OmniVision’s OV64A sensor, letting it shoot 8K videos at 24FPS and 4K videos at up to 120FPS. To keep the lights on, Lenovo is still sticking to a two-cell layout, but increased overall capacity at 5500mAh while retaining its 90w wired charging speeds via two USB-C ports.
The Legion Phone Duel 2 will be available in Europe in May for 799 Euros(~Php 46.2k) for the 12GB/256GB base model and 999 Euros (~Php 57.7k) for the 16GB/512GB variant that’s bundled with a charging dock. There’s no word if the 18GB RAM variant will be made available outside of China.
