      Hello,

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear that you ran into an issue. We strive to provide the best experience possible, so if you'd like to, we want to work with you to try to resolve this.

      Regarding the battery life, since the Legion Go can pack gaming laptop level performance in a handheld device, power can drain quickly. Depending on the demand of the game you're playing, by pressing the Legion R button to launch the quick menu, you can switch to lower power mode to save battery. In the menu, under the performance tab, users can toggle thermal modes and prioritize battery life by using the default mode or creating a custom thermal mode should you not be satisfied with the 3 presets. These adjustments can also be made by going into Legion Space > Settings (Legion Space can be launched quickly by pressing the Legion L button (Legion Logo above the button).

      Please don't hesitate to let us know what else we can do to improve your experience, as your satisfaction is important to us.

      Best regards,
      Lenovo Lenovo

    Love the product so far. It is a little bit of a learning curve though since it’s a pc so console players keep that in mind. Took some trial and error to get some games playable.

    They release a patch recently to remap the buttons and iron out some bugs. Lenovo is has been good at reaching out to the community for feedbacks. Looking forward for additional updates. I wouldn’t get this just yet, wait for more updates on the software.

    I pre oredered and did not get it the day it came out like I was assured. When I contacted support I was told we didnt expect the demand and do not have enough devices. Isnt the point of pre-ordering so they know the demand and can provide the device? Other than that the device is great, it takes an hour or two to update everything and get it optimized to play games. Once its ready the screen is beautiful and gameplay is awesome. That battery drains quick though.

    I was going to purchase a Valve Steam Deck or the ASUS ROG Ally & was on the fence about which one. However I decided to wait for the Lenovo Legion Go instead. Happy that I did & I’m completely satisfied with my purchase. I would definitely recommend.

    Even though I returned it, It can be really useful depending on the type of gamer you are. I’m not really handheld type of person so it just didn’t sit right with me. But after a little tuning and updates it can handle a decent amount of games like The first berserker and even Wukong.

    there are weird quirks that make it awkward, but I do love it! It turns on randomly all the time. some things don't work after sleep/hibernate (including the attached controllers). A reboot always clears it up though.

    I’d like to say at the top of this review that I had really high hopes. I have a steam deck OLED and this blows that out of the water. However! The unit I bought had major graphical issues. There was screen flickering at the top third of the screen which occasionally caused the unit itself to start bugging out. When it did work, the performance was amazing!! But the graphical issues just would not die. A quick search on google showed that my issue was not isolated. Many people had the same issue arise upon opening, or after a month or so of use. I really wish it wasn’t an issue, or else this would be the perfect product.
