I was hesitant to get the Legion Go S SteamOS 1TB 32GB handheld console at first because was an expensive purchase, but after using it for a couple of months now, it is by far the best purchase I’ve done to improve my quality of life that my gaming lifestyle of being on the go all the time. I pair this console with a Bluetooth high end, comfortable gaming controller, a dedicated mobile internet hotspot, and a noise cancelling headset for the best gaming experience when I’m traveling and want to get some gaming time during my busy schedule. Getting the 1TB 32GB version is worth it because most games take up a lot of space and need a lot of RAM in order to run smoothly. The 8” screen is immersive enough that you won’t mind the size. The screen protector is a must. The console fits in the Legion sling bag with the controller plus mobile hotspot without a problem.

I bought this Legion Go S steam-os during the 4th of July sale, and it's absolutely awesome. It plays all the AAA games that I've tried without any issues whatsoever. I bought over 55 games during the Steam Summer Sale for a fraction of the price that they cost everywhere else. I've been playing Red Dead Redemption 2, Cyberpunk 2077, High On Life, Dead Cells, Dead Space, Mad Max, Ace Combat 7, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered, Need For Speed Heat, Forza Horizon 5, Assassins Creed Black Flag, Assassins Creed Shadows, Stellar Blade, and a bunch more games with excellent graphics and awesome frame rates my only complaint is the battery life isn't the greatest on performance mode, but put it in balanced mode & you will get over 2 hours with games like Ace Combat 7 with excellent frame rates. I really love this handheld & I haven't touched my PS5 since getting it.

The Lenovo Legion Go S with SteamOS, 32GB RAM, and a 1TB SSD is an incredible handheld gaming PC. Performance is smooth and powerful, loading games quickly and running modern titles with ease. SteamOS makes the experience simple and console-like, while the big 120Hz screen and comfortable design make it perfect for gaming anywhere.

I went back and forth on buying a handheld for months. While I saved up, I constantly wondered if it was worth the expense as someone who pretty exclusively games on PC. After owning this for a couple weeks, the answer is yes. I use it every single day, and it’s making me feel less tied down to my PC. The performance is excellent, the battery isn’t too bad if you fiddle with the settings, and I’m so glad I went with SteamOS.

Great device, the biggest downside is battery life. Outside of this it’s pretty stout and can handle a lot of beefier games. Things like Ghosts of Tsushima and Cyberpunk and solid experiences, and it definitely has more performance than the steam deck. Battery life is short, however.

I really like how the legion go s look and feel. I like that I can play my high graphic game on steam better. Only issue with Legion Go S is that I was told by an employee that the Legion go s could play Xbox game pass games on here but the only way I can play my Xbox game is only through streaming and I didn’t want to have to do that because I wanted to be able to download the Xbox game as well as steam together. So that kinda disappointed me for paying for legion go when i thought it was the go 2 while I was looking at it in store. But I still would recommend the Go S if you only want to play steam game and not Xbox.

After a few weeks of owning the legion go s, I can say that it was definitely worth the price I paid during the black friday sale. Performance in games is honestly even better than what I expected and the screen is the perfect size for me, can see everything pretty clearly. Don’t know if I would’ve paid full price for it though, so I’d recommend waiting for a sale to make it a bit more reasonable.

The Lenovo legion surpassed my expectations. The screen is the perfect size, the game play is beautiful and having the steam library available was a plus. There were so many games on sale for Black Friday and the pricing was reasonable. The device is large but it is light not very heavy. This was the first Lenovo product I have ever purchased and I am looking forward to purchasing more.

I have been incredibly surprised by the capabilities of this device. Especially with a plug-in "lossless scaling", this is able to run even the most demanding AAA titles with lower-end graphics settings at 60+fps. Battery life can be managed with a lot of different tools in the sidebar. I am typically not playing handheld games longer than 1-1.5 hrs anyway, so I've rarely run out of battery life. You won't be able to run cyberpunk for multiple hours on battery alone, but much less demanding games have stretched out quite a long time om battery. Phenomenal little machine. I got it before the recent price hikes, definitely a steal at $600.

This Lenovo legion go S with Z1 extreme chip, 32G RAM, 1TB storage and steamOS is perfect for me. Plus that 8” VRR 120hz IPS screen and hall effect sticks and buttons is so beautiful. Coming from steamdeck this felt like a huge upgrade and I got it on a sale price that is half of Legion go 2. I’m getting higher FPS and performance boost overall l.Super happy with this purchase and I’m clearing a lot of back clog games.

Wonderful if you’re a couch potato, traveler, or someone who casually games and enjoys decent graphics - no professional gamer here. I play Palworld (solo and on a server) and House Flipper 2 and it runs fine, meanwhile my Husband plays Fallout 2, Son’s of the Forest, Jurassic Park Evolution and it runs fine. I know you can also hook it up to a monitor if you want a bigger screen but we haven’t done that. So, depending on your needs it’s a great product! I’d recommend it.

Got this at full price no regrets. It's my go to play everything champion. Steam os is a perfect pairing. It runs amazingly on just about everything thrown at it. Only downside you'll see is battery life.

Best handheld gaming experience ever! It can run most of the games I want to play (except anti-cheat). The Legion go Z1 with Steam OS is great! The quick resume alone is worth it. The performance and price were just right for me. Legion go + Steam OS = one happy customer. I would definitely recommend this product.

I was a longtime steamdeck owner and wanted a boost in power, after looking around and deciding I still want steamOs I stumbled upon this holy grail! It’s everything I was looking for and easily the best choice I’ve made gaming wise in a long time. I couldn’t recommend this more!

I =really love this device. The legion go s with the z2 go cpu and 16gb ram running windows 11 is bogged down so much. Once I found out that the legion go s had a z1 extreme 32gb ram model I was all in. Then I got to see that running steam os instead of windows and it is a match made in heavenly performance lol. Steam os has a desktop mode, it's kde Linux and archDE if I'm correct. And you can basically use any steam deck mods and install them as if the legion go s was an original steam deck. The only thing I haven't been able to get set up was the waydroid mod to have it run a version of android. I'm betting someone will get it working soon. Get the go s with the z1 extreme 32gb ram 1Tb ssd on steamOS. You will thank me for this recommendation. These pictures are my legion go s with the dbrand Killswitch full kit. Protect your investment!

Legion Go with Z1 Extreme chip (not Z2 go) is a great device. I like the display and embedded controllers (not detachable). The only drawback is the short battery life which is about an hour for recent games like TLOU (~45 FPS) or Alone in the Dark (~50 FPS). Oh, and you'll have to buy carrying case if you need one because it doesn't come with the device.

This is an excellent handheld, particularly for use on moderate and low spec games. It contains the Z1extreme chip, which is good enough for those games. Expected not to work best for new releases for this year and beyond but with implementations such as FSR4 you can likely get really good settings. I only grip is the battery, it’s too small for a handheld of this size. Really do you recommend you look for open box deals because it’s not worth it a full retail price.

This handheld is a beast and with steam os to boot. I am very satisfied with my purchase. The battery life kinda stinks but nothing a good power bank cant resolve. Would highly recommend it over the windows version.

Coming from the Stan deck oled is a huge improvement in literally every aspect. From the screen to ergonomics with the only real downside being is you were a taco pad user since this much eliminates them. Very happy with this and with the z2 extreme cups being close to only 15%faster at max wattage in most scenarios I’m happy with the lower prices with this go s as it plays all the games I want with great performance. And as a side note I would also recommend the dbrand killswitch case since it doesn’t come with any sort of case in the box. 10 out of 10 would definitely recommend to someone that’s on the fence between this and the new Z2 extreme chips that handheld that are coming out soon to the market for much more in price.

Fans are loud, but performance is great with the extra ram. Depending on how pricing works then you may save and spring for a z2 extreme
