The dual-SIM (Nano) Lenovo Legion Phone Duel runs on Android 10 with ZUI 12 (Legion OS). The proprietary skin brings a number of software-level customisations including the horizontal UI option that lets you easily play games and interact with other gamers in a landscape mode. Further, there are six customised layout themes, each with different interface elements, colours, and icons. The smartphone also has a home mode that allows you to cast your content or play your favourite game on a connected monitor or HDTV alongside attaching a wireless keyboard and mouse or a wired accessory.
The Legion Phone Duel features GAE game acceleration engine, which promises steady 120fps frame rate in supported games and the Link Boost feature effectively reduces network latency. It has a 64-megapixel rear camera along with a 16-megapixel 120° ultra-wide camera present in the middle and a side-mounted 20-megapixel pop-up camera, which uses 10 software tweaks to make it easier to use in that orientation.
