Lenovo cancels some Legion Go 2 preorders — what happened
Lenovo has confirmed it is canceling some preorders for the Legion Go 2 that were placed directly on Lenovo.com. The company says demand “substantially exceeded our projections,” which led to unforeseen delivery range extensions and forced Lenovo to cancel some orders rather than hold customer payments for items it cannot ship in a timely manner.
Who’s affected
- Customers who preordered directly on Lenovo.com may have their orders canceled and have reportedly seen ship‑date pushes (e.g., from September to October).
- Preorders placed through retail partners (Best Buy and similar) are reportedly not affected for now.
Why it happened
Lenovo says overwhelming demand exceeded projections, stretching its fulfillment windows. The company stated it will restock Lenovo.com and reopen ordering when inventory is replenished, but hasn’t said whether canceled customers will get priority for subsequent batches.
Customer reaction
Some buyers report little to no communication aside from revised ship dates or cancellation notices. The Legion Go 2 launch has generated frustration among customers and Reddit commenters, and Lenovo pledged to answer more questions in its AMA thread over the coming weeks.
