Customer Ratings & Reviews

Battery dies pretty quickly so you will be gaming with it connected to power. i like the touch screen for some games. feels like you get mouse level control without a mouse (helpful in menus) I like the bluetooth so i use my airpods alot. Runs Arc raiders fine on low settings, and other games look great. if you have headphones in, you won't hear the fan. I mostly use it when I want to game but I am not near my desk for travel or other reasons.

Amazing handheld, runs Harry Potter and Warhammer 40k seamlessly at 60 fps average which is amazing for a handheld imo, especially one with an OLED screen. Would reccomend a seperate battery if using on flights/long trips as the battery life leaves a bit to be desired.

This does everything I was looking for & more. Beyond handheld gaming, the ability to run a regular desktop is a bonus. SteamOS runs great & while it doesn’t play EVERY game, it does play the majority of them very well. Battery life could be better, but it charges fast & you can easily play while on a charger or in a dock. Very happy with this purchase.

I mostly play beamng and euro truck sim on here, comparable to my slightly more expensive msi laptop depending on the game. Only downside is the fan is quite loud but the console doesn't get hot. Also note that certain games aren't very compatible and are almost unplayable but most are fine. Feels more ergonomic than you would expect!

This is my favorite console I’ve ever had. It runs way better than I expected, nice in the hands, the only flaw in an otherwise perfect product is the teeny tiny touch pad that’s inconveniently placed, but it’s an easy fix to turn it off!

I purchased this gamin system with no hopes due to a lot of my games being very system intense. Well let me just tell you its probably the best gaming device i have ever purchased. It plays all my games with no lag and is fairly lightweight considering how big it is. I think it aits perfectly in your hands and the controls are very well made. I would 100% recommend this to my friends and family if they are wanting something a handheld gaming computer. It works just as good as my computer i spent over 2k on and now i play on this device all the time instead of my computer. I thought i was gonna regret it when i first purchased it, but If you have been thinking bout getting one buy it! You wont regret it.

This handheld PC takes the software streamlining from the Steam Deck, with hardware strong enough to play most games, if at low setting for many AAA titles. However, even on low settings, games look great on this device. I'd recommend buying one of these if you have the disposable income, or if you can catch it on sale.

Excellent device, wonderful ergonomics, fantastic screen. SteamOS is so much better for handheld gaming. The only blemish is the limitation on playing some popular multiplayer games like Call of Duty or Battlefield, but I pair this device with GeForceNow and can play all those games using low power mode and take advantage of the 120hz screen at high settings.

Great screen size. Good performance. Awesome ergonomics.

For it being a handheld it runs everything pretty good and is really handy for when you travel and still wanna game, I’ve been really stuck on playing arc raiders and this makes it easy for me to catch up on everything even when I’m not home, there are things like battery life and the sound of the fan but it’s a handheld so it’s nothing that I wouldn’t expect.

This thing is the Steamdeck 1.5. Same or better battery bc you can run games with better FPS, but at lower tdp/profiles. Great ergonomics, great 8” screen for a non oled. Yes its a little heavy, so is the steamdeck. Yes the battery could be a little better, but so could the steamdeck. I don’t recommend paying full retail as I got mine for $650, but 0 regrets.

I work in front of a PC and recently ive found myself playing less. I got this handheld to try out and ended up keeping it. Works well and is comfortable enough to hold. Battery life is a little short. If I wasnt able to get it at the black friday price i would have gotten a SD oled tho.

Good buttons and display. I like the color. The color looks like a dark nebula purple color to me. The ergonomics are nice in my opinion. The switch 2 joycoms felt too small to me and I am glad I made the switch to lenovo. Imcan run most of my games at balanced tdp of about 16w. I look foward to keeping my device for a lomg time. Nice Black Friday deal. Thank you Best Buy.

I bought this, used it for a while, and ended up returning it. As a Steam Deck alternative, I think it ticks all the boxes -- it's performant, the battery life is reasonable, and every game I tried on SteamOS ran without issues. I returned it because I realized I'm pretty "meh" on controller inputs. To be clear, those are fine, as far as I can tell; not having much experience with that input style, I'm not an expert on how it compares to others. For some games (e.g. Hades) the controllers felt very intuitive and natural, and I had no issues with using them. I would have liked to have seen the option of using a thumbstick to control the mouse cursor, but if that exists it was not evident. Waiting on a Legion Go 2 to see if removing the controllers and running Windows is a viable alternative.

It's overall a great machine, far more powerful than the steam deck OLED I had before. It does have some stability issues and reboots on occasion, but the steam OS version is far better than the Windows one. Battery life is not great but pretty good.

This has been great for all of my games so far. SteamOS is a must have for these handhelds. Only critique is the battery life can be a bit short if playing more demanding games but that is just part of all handheld devices. It charges super fast as well.

The Legion Go S with SteamOS is a great handheld but I ultimately returned it because of SteamOS and compatibility with anti-cheat software. If you want to play games with anti-cheat you will need a windows handheld. Games without anti-cheat work well and honestly SteamOS is a better experience, it just didn't fit my needs. I ended up getting the MSI Claw 8 AI+ instead, performance wise the MSI is better but ergonomics the Legion was much better. If you want performance and compatibility go with the MSI Claw but if you want a more "comfortable" gaming experience and do not intend to play games with anti-cheat I would recommend the Legion Go S instead.

This was my first experience using a PC handheld, having come from using the switch as my main console for the last 5+ years, and it exceeded my expectations. Out of the box it takes a little bit to set up and get used to all of the settings (I will admit that there is a bit of a learning curve when it comes to tuning the devices for specific games), but once I figured everything out the system felt smooth and easy to use. There are a good amount of customizable options including the RGB lights on the joysticks which is a nice plus. It is a powerhouse of a device compared to the switch and it’s nice having the option to play my PC games on the go now. Pros: - device feels nice in the hands for a long period of time, it’s not too heavy - nice screen despite it not being OLED. I don’t feel like it needs a better screen - games run smooth - Steam OS is easy to navigate - optional performance profiles for games so you don’t have to reconfigure every time you play Cons: - The learning curve in the beginning. It’s not that bad but I had to watch some videos to troubleshoot early problems I was having - fan volume could be bothersome to some people. I personally don’t mind them being loud at times - the battery life is under 4-5hrs, sometimes even closer to 2hrs depending on what game you’re playing. This doesn’t affect me too much since I don’t play for long periods of time in one sitting but could be a downside to those who prefer longer sessions Overall, I would highly recommend the Legion Go to those who want to dive into the world of handheld gaming. The pros of the device well outweigh the cons and for the price, you’re getting exactly what you pay for.

This is my first gaming handheld and what can I say……… I originally planned to get a Xbox Ally X but the discount on this device swayed me. I’m really pleased with my purchase SteamOS has operated phenomenally, I have faced little to no lag while playing graphics heavy title Planet Coaster 2.

Amazing. Picked this up on BB Black Friday seal for $649 before tax. It’s a steal for what you get. I can run all my games smoothly. Handles ghost of Tsushima at mostly high and max settings at 65-75fps average. The screen is bright and looks really good in all games. Highly recommend this handheld.
