Lenovo Legion C700 cloud handheld debate continues

Lenovo’s Legion C700 handheld is still stirring debate, mainly because it appears to lean toward cloud gaming at a time when players are already nervous about handheld prices and game ownership. GamesRadar’s critique frames it as a risky response to a worsening price situation: a streaming-focused device may be lighter and cheaper to build, but it also depends heavily on connection quality and service availability. That is the big trade-off. Native handhelds are expensive but flexible.

Cloud-first devices can be convenient but fragile. Lenovo could still surprise everyone when full details arrive, but for now the C700 looks like a device entering a very opinionated market.
