The legion go is by far one of the best handheld gaming devices out there. The weight is not a big issue and actually feels lighter than what others said, the 8.8 inch screen is truly amazing even though VRR is not available (144Hz refresh rate is still good) the battery life is way better than the ROG Ally, and setup out of the box was much smoother for me at least. Now for some cons, the legion software is still being updated over time, and AMD is still working with legion to fix some other minor to minimum issues. I will say the SD card slot is way better than the one on the Ally. iykyk

Awesome device! Just a little big, I wish it was more ergonomic. But the trade off is you get a very nice big screen which I love.

I picked this up to be able to play some of my favorite older games, like Fallout 3, and it handles them like a champ! I was hitting 60 fps consistently on high settings, and the battery would last around 2 hours.

Started with a steam deck and I just hated the operating system so much not to mention all the crashes so I decided to try again with the legion go,
It’s amazing lightyears ahead of the steam deck performance , os and screen are just way better and amazing. The screen is absolutely amazing this thing looks oled it’s so crisp and the colors pop out at you!
I would highly recommend it if your on the fence you won’t regret it.

I have been using this as my daily gaming handheld and don't regret it. I converted from a Steam Deck, the power and performance boost is a game changer for me. I dip my toes in all game types and the Legion can take everything I throw at it. FPS mode is a great addition, and the fact it has windows will allow you to play games like Call of Duty which plays great!

I needed something I could game on the go with, this device didn’t disappoint, like other reviews have noted, the software needs work but I also expected that being this a new device from Lenovo. Initially I was torn between this and the ASUS ROG Ally, it came down to me wanting to also use this in docked mode with an EGPU, with the Legion GO I have flexibility on choosing my gpu and enclosure, with the ROG Ally I’m bound to using there proprietary egpu solution which is a no go for me.

I highly recommend this device—it’s truly impressive. In many ways, it’s even better than the Nintendo Switch, and possibly one of the best alternatives out there. As a Windows device, it really shines—especially for someone like me who’s a big fan of the Windows ecosystem. If you love Windows, you’re going to appreciate how well this product performs and how much it has improved through regular updates and software enhancements.
It’s a solid choice for anyone who wants portability without the hassle of carrying around a bulky or expensive laptop. Whether you’re gaming, multitasking, or just browsing, this device handles it all with ease. Definitely worth considering!

The Legion Go is the best gaming handheld out there, it plays any game that I throw at it. Some of which are at full HD graphics at 60 to 90 frames per second.

Nothing is perfect, but I cannot argue with the Lenovo Legion Go after my purchase a couple of months ago. With External AMD graphics capabilities I have been taking great advantage of this and all of its handled features. I like it so much I want another one! I cannot wait for the future improvements Lenovo brings us to help make the Legion Go better.
All games I've thrown at it can go beyond 144 FPS, but this is titles like Final Fantasy 7 remake, and WoW. It can handle a lot I imagine with any AMD capable external GPU. <3

The Best Handheld PC, With One Major Issue

I love this thing and am very impressed with Lenovo's first iteration in the handheld space. They checked lots of boxes (big screen, removable controllers, efficient for its size, decent price, Hall Effect joysticks, etc.) However, the sharp edges on the front of the controllers need to be addressed. Lenovo really needs to come up with an ergonomic option for the controllers or let 3rd party companies produce them. It's a major issue, but there is a 3D-printed comfort grip attachment coming soon by a seller on Etsy.

Bought this product as a replacement for cloud gaming on and it has been a blast!! The screen size and quality are excellent and it plays most games fairly well to be such a small form factor in comparison to a full desktop. As expected, it requires a fair amount of PC knowledge to optimize the device to its fullest potential, so I wouldn't recommend everyone to just dive in without at least learning the basics to a gaming PC. Definitely worth the money in my use case!

I Love my legion go it only comes in black so don't waster your time looking for my custom legion go. I originally entered best but to get a black Friday deal for the rog ally and saw this sitting on the shelf and it was a no brainer . It's a Swiss army for gamers . You can play it handheld, play it with the controllers removed like a Nintendo switch , you can use the right controller as a fps mouse and you can rotate it to portrait , remove the controllers, and use it like a tablet . Screen is great and has 144hz .

All I can say is Lenovo Legion Go is the way to GO!!! Amazing handheld, does it all from being able to play todays biggest titles to being a laptop in the smallest pocket of my backpack! I got the Go back in December and havent put it down. I come from being a console gamer, Ps5, Xbox, and Switch but this by far has really changed my gaming experience with my busy work life. Being able to pick up and play an hour before bed while im laying down is just bliss for me. I highly recommend!!!
