Not impressed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried it out and just didn't care for it all that much. Could barely run games all that well with a low frame rate. Ti be honest i didn't keep it all that long, si maybe with some updates and tweaking it could have done better.

Ehhhh.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I did not have a good experience with this purchase. I returned it within 24 hours. The device was very laggy and also has poor sound quality. The controls take somw getting used to but are good all around. I did research as to why it performed so poorly, apparently there are a lot of settings you have to go in and change and tweak to get it to work properly. This should not be the case. As a gift for a kid who enjoys low impact games or simply as a upgrade from a tablet I could recommend it. But for someone who loves enjoyable casual gaming on the go, it will be a hard toss up. I personally do not recommend this item. But it may be due to my bias of my gaming pc.

Stick drift and rgb light not working
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Character in every game was stuck moving left in every game i played. Making every game unplayable. Took back after one day. Also light would not turn on. Screen looks nice and graphics look good. I feel the controller attachments seem very low quality compared to the main unit that seems to be well made. Audio is very poor compared to the competition.

Posted .Hi, Pursion. We're sorry to hear that your Legion Go did not work out for you. This system was not designed to run games formulate for another platform (PS5), but you could run Fortnite using cloud gaming services or locally on the device. We hope that you find the right solution for you, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts with us.

On paper the best handheld, but in practice…
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a cool device, I bought it originally for my brother as a gift , but since it was too uncomfortable for him I had to return it. The ergonomics really hold back how good this device could be.

Trashest thing ive spent alot of $$$ on!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing crashes and freezes so often that it gets annoying, too expensive to be doing any of that and on top of it, theirs been times where settings change on its own and some games says error when trying to download, its a good device but for the price and all the negative things it comes with makes it so bad. This device is overhyped in my opinion not worth all the $$$

Open Box Buyer Beware
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought an open box excellent Legion Go. At first glance looked great. Had all documentation and didint seemed used at all. Unfortunately once turned on things weren't quite as good. My major concern was the the left joystick RGB wsn't working. Not sure how that was missed or why this unit would be qualified as excellent. Second the screen was not very responsive not terrible but no very snappy. After this first impression I had to returned it.

Terrible screen issues + more
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just got my item delivered after it was delayed for a week. Open it up and it has multiple dead pixels and a terrible screen overall. Not happy, the few games i tested were subpar…. The Z1 extreme cant handle mew titles at 1200 or 1600p (2 of the 3 default resolutions) and 800p looks twrrible. Updating the device is junk (online via lenovos website) this is not at all a finished product and just doesnt have the juice for modern titles ag good resolution and high FPS

Cool but more interested in next gen
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This really needs vrr, a portrate display, more comfortable controllers, and an overhaul to the fan system. On the quiet setting there's a distinct high pitched whine that none of the other major handhelds have. I like the concept a lot, I think there's hope for the next iteration.

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great handheld but it came with a defective controller. Im overseas so i dont know if i can change it. The worst part is that its is open box so it should have been tested.

windows lets it down

It was okay for a few hours, then nothing.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Received my unit on 11/3 ran updates, multiple reboots and installed all of my games overnight. I went to play the unit this morning and it had another Windows update that wanted to reboot. Now it crashes non stop, will not go into safe mode or even get past the Legion logo. The couple of hours I was able to use it while downloading games it seems okay, but the Legion software is wonky for sure. After looking into the issue further it appears the hard drive is defective. Returning and will see what happens.
