Great but can be even better
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a few days of using it, I got used to its qwerks or however thats spelled. Took some setup time, Alot of it, and patience. Lenovo does release updates frequently so it’ll be a lot better down the road. Just wish the controllers were more premium built like todays controllers. overall compatibility with games and the Legion Go controllers can be better. For example, using steam I can play GTA games just fine, but for older CoD titles that are compatible with controllers on pc, do not recognize the legion go controllers. Maybe its a user error. but other than that, screen quality is amazing, power is amazing & lasts about 30-45min on a single charge. Worth it imo

Best hand held next to Steam deck OLED
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great hand held. The big display is a perfect size. Got it open box for a great price. Its very well made. Not a fan of the controller gimmick with the built in FPS mouse, etc. Other wise id give it 5 stars. Cant wait for the new version to release with a bigger battery and better APU.

Posted .Hey DorisO,
Thanks for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you ran into an issue and discovered some pain points when using the Legion Go. We wish to provide the best experience possible, so if you'd like to work with us, we’d like to work with you to address these points and improve your experience with your Legion Go. We also wish to learn more details about your time with your Go to gain a further understanding of the various points you mentioned.
First, with heat production, when gaming, the internal heat can increase as the system processes more data and at a higher frequency, but the Legion Go's cooling system should help protect the device from excessive heat.
With the fan speeds increasing along with the stress the handheld is under, this can cause battery level to drop quickly. If the system is using the latest AMD chipset and driver versions, another thing you can do to improve battery life is 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).
We hope that the information shared helps provide some insight and understanding that may improve your sentiments on the system.
We are pleased to read that Legion Go has otherwise been good to you and your son.
We look forward to hearing more from you, so please don’t hesitate to leave us a note in the Q&A section of this product page to continue this discussion and share details on the points we’ve inquired about, along with any further comments you may have regarding your experience.
Best regards,
Lenovo

Exactly what I wanted and so much more.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to game while I was on the go without packing around my laptop. Now I can do that, and anything else I needed to do on my laptop, I haven’t came across a game that I wanted to play that wouldn’t work, currently playing GTA V and baldurs gate with little to no messing with settings. Only real con is the lack of cases and stuff like that, shipping also took forever for the case screen protector etc. It comes with a carrying case! But you will want a grip one for comfort.

Worth buying imo if looking for handheld
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely love this I use it every night battery life is okay without behind plugged up I can play 2-3 hours depending on the game at the 2k resolution
I would recommend this to a friendThe PC Switch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first PC handheld and I chose it because I dont mind the constant updates etc that a normal PC requires to stay running well. I enjoy that the controllers are versatile and additional accessories allow you to use them however you want. The screen is big but its also great quality. After doing all the updates and Lenovo just revamped their app, its been a pleasure to use. The weight is hefty but the kickstand tends to help alot with weight balance. It does run loud and hot but you have a tiny gaming computer in your hand. Good luck with your purchase, I would do

Love Hate Relationship
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not sure how to explain this. I loved this handheld but could not get it to perform even close to what other have put out there. I spend hours doing different setting and profile setting and it would not perform well at all. All my games were choppy and grainy. Not what others were showing on videos. I am sure it could have been me but I tried. Will try the new one, hopefully it will be better.
