By the level of downgrade of the Legion 2023 laptop line, it is clear that Lenovo decided to terminate this series too... Lenovo the next victim of US policy against China? The question is of course rhetorical...

Legion phones are too niche, look childish/unprofessional and have no real competitive advantage. Just make a vanilla Android phone with larger screen and high end hardware matching Google/Samsung's support.

Wouldn't be surprised if they still use forced labour from Xinjiang province though.

Why did Lenovo smartphones fail?

- Does not compete with neither iPhones nor flagship Androids (Google Pixel 7 Pro or Samsung S23 Ultra)
- One 1 awkward screen size that appeals neither for iPhone 14 Pro nor iPhone 14 Pro Max users
- Shorter battery life
- Worse camera with only 3 lenses
- Poor integration of cloud services like Google Drive, MS OneDrive, Dropbox
- Disappointing speakers
- no unique selling point, and lack of ThinkPad DNA - just a useless name
- outdated hardware
- Lenovo software gimmiky and clunky to use - no value add to custoemrs who are used to Apple products

- ThinkPads are regarded as big, heavy laptops with chunky bezels, inefficient Intel CPUs and lack of Nvidia GPU power wrapped in an aging finger print-attracting chassis lacking white (Asus G14) and light silver options (MacBook Pro 14 M2)

I used to love ThinkPads, especially the X1 Extreme, but the lack of 35W AMD Ryzen HS options with high performance Nvidia graphics cards like the RTX 4080 is a real shame.
Legions are very heavy, bulky, have huge chargers, lack premium 14" models and again have no white, light silver chassis options for Slim 7, Legion 7
