Q: QuestionHow long do I have to work at macdonald to get this(4 answers)
A: AnswerAssuming the minimum wage and the state you’re in is around 9-12 dollars and fast food is an introductory job employing low skilled workers. The math for an average of $10 hourly works out to 70 hours to afford this device (without the deduction of taxes). Assuming you’re a part time employee, working less than 30 hours weekly or 6 hours/day for 5 days; likely it will take 2 weeks and 2 days for you to accumulate enough to buy it… but wait, there’s taxes. Assuming you are in the lowest average tax bracket, it’s also likely you’ll work 4-6 of those hours and put them all into taxes. Therefore, you’ll likely work for 2 weeks and 3 days before being able to buy this device… but that’s assuming there’s no sales tax. You can do the math from hereAnswered by MathematicianAbacus

An Eye Catcher, Excellent Performer, Not Perfect
After spending some time with the Lenovo Legion Go, I've gathered quite a few impressions about this device, both good and bad. Here's my take on it: Pros: --------------- Display Quality: The display is truly amazing. It's one of the best I've seen on a handheld device, offering crisp and vibrant visuals that enhance my gaming experience. Cooling and SSD Upgradeability: I appreciate the efficient cooling system in the Legion Go. It keeps the device cool even during extended gaming sessions. Plus, the ease of upgrading the SSD is a big plus for me. Battery Life and Ergonomics: The battery life is decent, especially when playing more demanding games. In terms of ergonomics, the device feels comfortable in my hands, though it took a bit of getting used to. Cons: --------------- Comfort and Design Issues: I've noticed that the bottom edges can be a bit uncomfortable, especially if I'm holding the device tightly for a long time. Also, the placement of the start/pause button is quite frustrating – it's not where I'd intuitively expect it to be. Controller Quality and Layout: The detachable controllers feel somewhat cheap to me, lacking the solid feel I prefer. The layout of the back buttons and scroll wheel is also not ideal, causing some strain on my wrist during prolonged use. Software and Interface Shortcomings: The Legion Space software definitely needs more work. It feels half-baked and makes navigating settings more cumbersome than it should be. Fan Noise and Lack of VRR: The fan noise is noticeable and can be distracting in quieter environments. The absence of Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) is a significant downside, particularly given the quality of the screen. The Jury is Still Out --------------- FPS Mode: The FPS mode is a bit of a mixed bag for me. It's an interesting feature, but it feels overly complicated and somewhat gimmicky. Speakers and Sound Quality: The sound quality from the speakers isn't as good as I expected. It's adequate, but not impressive. Value for Money: Considering the features and performance, I think the Legion Go offers decent value. However, the combination of hardware and software issues makes me question its overall worth. Final Thoughts Overall, the Lenovo Legion Go is a device with a lot of potentials. The display and build quality are its strongest points, but the comfort, controller quality, and software experience leave room for improvement. The lack of VRR and the noticeable fan noise are also drawbacks that I hope will be addressed in future iterations. While I see a lot of promise in this device, I believe it might not be the perfect fit for everyone, especially those who are particular about ergonomics and software efficiency.

Lenovo Legion GO - REVIEW
This really is an amazing product. It has great quality and resistance. I am a video game collector and I can say with confidence about the product. I also have the Steam Deck and the Rog Ally and compared to these the Lenovo Legion Go has the best screen. The screen size is excellent for a good gameplay experience. In terms of performance, it is superior to Steam Deck, but the Windows operating system has some problems that leave something to be desired. I believe that if Windows were prepared directly for a portable video game it would be better optimized. In terms of performance compared to Rog Ally, they are identical! I didn't particularly like the Legion Space system, I had several problems with it and had to reinstall it a few times to resolve them. I even had a problem where some buttons stopped working in legion space and only reinstalling this was resolved. This point I believe Lenovo needs to improve. About the battery, like other portable consoles, it doesn't last long in triple AAA games. But the experience is still good. Ah, the console's ventilation is also good, only getting a little hot at times. Overall it's an excellent console, worth the purchase.

Best PC gaming handheld hands down!
The Lenovo Legion Go is absolutely gorgeous and the most impressive price of gaming tech I've ever owned, and I've owned a lot! It's comfy to hold, the screen is massive and gorgeous and it runs AAA games like a boss! I was absolutely in love with my Steam Deck for well over a year, but kept getting frustrated by the lack of have it could play (esp online PvP games) and play well. The Legion Go not only plays every game you can play on a full sized gaming PC, but also runs then beautifully. Plus it does everything a PC can do. I sold my Steam Deck to upgrade to the Legion Go and couldn't be happier with my decision. If you're a true PC gamer and want to take your games on the road or to the couch or bed without sacrificing fidelity the a Legion Go will not disappoint!
