    The Lenovo Legion Go is an amazing little device. However, I spent the extra money to get next day shipping through FedEx but it didn't arrive at my door until a full week after purchase. Nothing against Best Buy or the device itself, but you may not want to splurge on the faster shipping.

    I bought an Open-Box version, and I love it. You just need to go into bios after running a few updates and download a few things but just make sure you run it in balance mode when not playing then performance mode during games.

    Like the title says and im not upset about it a bit. All of these handheld pcs have there quirks but this one just has too many feautures to ignore. 3 gyros, 2 usb4 ports, removable controls, 2k+ display, trackpad. Just amazing for the price.

    plagued by software issues and annoyances

    The Legion Go has too many software issues and annoyances to recommend. The good: - big beautiful screen the makes the device function well as a Windows tablet - premium and professional feeling design - excellent joysticks and buttons - great kickstand - helpful features like trackpad and scroll wheel The bad: - The fans are loud and run constantly. They make an unpleasant whine. - Legion Space software is buggy and slow with questionable UX. Quick settings, however, necessitates that it be fast and reliable. For example the overlays do not always display depending on the display mode of the game. - Software did not function correctly out-of-the-box. For example bundled AMD Radeon software did not launch under initial configuration. Radeon RSR feature built-in to Legion Space was broken. Software updates fixed that but broke other things like fps counter no longer works. - Lack of VRR support. This would not be a dealbreaker however for some reason changing between 60Hz and 144Hz requires that the device to be plugged in. - The controllers are too difficult to detach, which is the main gimmick of the device. It's hard to imagine using this feature. - Performance is inexplicably worse than competitors using the same chipset - Lots of strange quirks like Windows start menu hides itself if you accidentally tip the device. I really wanted to like this device but ultimately it did not "spark joy". There are too many issues with it. Hopefully Lenovo fixes these issues but at this time it is impossible to recommend.

    We buy it a few days ago, it arrived on time and everything works very well. Of curse it will needs some software updates but overall I loved it. I think it's the best handheld in the market right now compared to the rog ally and the steam deck this is the winner for sure. I you're thinking about getting a handheld this is the one that you have to choose.

    If your in the market for a handheld gaming pc. Then your in the right place. This machine is amazing. With enough knowledge and tinkering this beast is a dream to play with. The 8.8 inch screen is gorgeous to look at. Even though there's an abundance of buttons on the controllers. Im very happy with my legion go. Thank you best buy. Thank you Lenovo.

    The thing about this handheld pc that set it above everyone else is the fact that its a 8 inch tablet that can easily go from gaming to watching your favorites shows made accessible with the detachable controllers. Now im not saying touch response is great on windows but with the fps/mouse mode, touch pad, scroll wheel make things alot more fluid.

    Great screen, but very glossy. It’s powerful but you need to tweak and adjust in game settings frequently, just like on a gaming PC, as opposed to something simpler like a Steam Deck.

    People need to have patients with this devices. Same thing with rog Ally. We will have updates in the coming days so please be patient. I just set up this device and its amazing. Been playing emulation and triple a games. Just need to make sure to download the latest drivers. Also you can download an updated version of legion space which is more smoother. Just go to reddit and search for legiongo community you'll see links download drivers and software to get you up to speed or you can go to https://legiongolife.com/legion-go-graphic-drivers-31-0-22011-1008/. If you dont know what youre doing or youre new to pc i recommend you getting the steam deck. Mostly people who complain too much are people who dont know how to work on their pc. Just get a steam deck since is much an out of the box experience.

      Hi, BrendanW. Thank you for choosing Lenovo! Regarding the battery life, 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 are glad to know that you are loving your Legion Go, and we appreciate your time taken to share your experience and feedback with us. Lenovo

    I've used the Legion Go for over a year, and it still impresses me. The performance with the AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme is fantastic, making gaming smooth and enjoyable. The only downside is the sound quality; while it can be adjusted, it requires some tinkering to get it right. Overall, a solid handheld!
