Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is not my first handheld gaming pc but I have enjoyed the Legion Go best of all. The bigger screen makes this the go to device in my opinion. Set up is quick and the detachable controllers are great. Steam, Xbox GamePass, Epic Game Store games all run well once you find the proper settings. The included case is well built and helps when transporting the Legion Go. The only negative comment I have is about Lenovo support when it comes to driver updates.

Lenovo really did a great job with this handheld machine. It has the power you need to play AAA games paired with AMD's Radeon Super Resolution. Few things to point out is if you're looking for something comfortable for a couple of hours of gameplay, this one just wouldnt cut it. Its too bulky and a bit hefty to lie down in bed in comfort.

The Legion go is exactly what I was looking for in an handheld gaming PC. At first, I had bought the ROG Ally, due to its performance and windows capabilities that the steam deck lacked. When the Legion was announced, however, I decided to return the ROG Ally, and wait for the Legion Go’s release. For me, this was worth the weight. The 8.8 inch display is extremely vibrant and makes playing on the go so much more of a pleasure. Having the ability to use the switchlike controllers also adds a nice bit of variety to play in its tablet form. Even though it is a larger console, it is still fairly comfortable to hold, even for longer gaming sessions. The only real gripes I have with it at this point come down to the Legion software. It definitely has had its points with some minor glitches here and there. It definitely hasn’t been as bad as some people may have pointed out in their experiences, however, for me personally. at its current price point, I definitely feel it’s a very strong option for someone to choose for their gaming experience.

Legion Go has potential but it needs some improvement. First, it is heavy compared to ROG Ally and Steam Deck. Secondly, the legion go detachable controllers needs something when they are deattached, so they can become a single controller. Third the Legion Space software is not polished and its glitchy. Third, the speakers are not that great, ROG Ally speakers sound much better. Fourth, I dont know why Lenovo went with over 1080p screen resolution because in most games you will get sluggish performance if you game at a higher screen resolution. Lastly, the product quality itself does not look durable, especially when you are detaching the controllers, they are getting scratched easily. It does take lot of time to charge it fully. The battery life is also ok. I think game-held supposed to be portable and not heavy. Legion Go screen is huge but it’s not very light. The price they are asking for it, you can get a decent gaming laptop with better performance. If you consider portability, I would recommend going with ROG Ally or Steam deck.

The 8.8” Legion Go truly impressed me. It delivers excellent speed and performance, making it great for both gaming and demanding tasks. Its portability is a huge plus, and the ability to connect it to an external display really unlocks its full potential. If you’re looking for power without sacrificing mobility, this is a fantastic choice. Highly recommended.

The legion go is perfect on paper but falls a little short. It's still a great handheld though and I prefer it over the ROG Ally and Steam decks I've since sold. Pros and the massive screen, kickstand, and detachable controllers. However, the fan noise is on the higher side and the controllers themselves are sharp and ten to hurt my hands after long periods of time. Also, this is a massive handheld and kind of annoying to travel with. Most importantly, it runs games well.

Heavy and ran very hot that it scared me, battery life is horrible, spent more time trying to tweak than playing any games, don’t recommend to anyone who just wants to play games, its just to much work, nice screen though

The Legion Go is a great system with a few caveats. If you're expecting it to be pick-up-and-play like the Nintendo Switch (or even the Steam Deck) you might be in for a bit of a shock. The graphics drivers are going to need updating, you'll need to install something like FXsound to get decent volume, and - at launch - the Lenovo Space software feels unfinished and lacking key features. With all that said, if you're willing to tweak this thing (there are lots of tutorials online) it has the potential to be superb. The screen is large and bright - it puts the OG Deck and even the Rog Ally screen to shame - and the controller options, while possibly overwhelming, are extensive, meaning just about anything is comfortably playable. It's also surprisingly ergonomic and comfortable to hold, given that it's one of the largest PC handhelds on the market. If Lenovo can iron out some of the issues in future software updates, the Legion Go has a shot at being THE handheld to beat.

Its like having a pc in your hands and take it anywhere you want. Im playing MW3 while i take carw of my toddler. I though I will have trouble playing APEX or MW3. But it’s literally like playing on my PC. Only sucky thing is the battery life. I can play my Nintendo Switch for like 5-8 hours n have battery left but my Legion is like 2 hours the most

Ive had the Go for a few days and so far its great. The screen is large and has 3 resolution options. The detachable controllers are a great feature. Once removed you have a Windows tablet. The Go is like having multiple devices in 1 package. Gaming on the Go is a great experience. I dont love FPS mode, but its a very unique idea. I recommend this to anyone.

Bought the Legion Go on open box and haven’t had a single issue since I got it. There were no dings or scratches. The Go itself is a beast and can handle pretty much any game you want to play on the go. Truly a tank compared to most. I got it and totally decked out the Go with accessories and I’m not looking back. It’s so much fun to go wherever I want and open up my bag, pull out the Go and start up any game. Screen size is huge compared to most. It’s just the best, to be honest.

Big screen makes playing great The controllers feel kind of good even during "long" play sessions Battery leaves much to be desired but thats kind of to be expected with these devices Plays most games at a good framerate with some tweaking

One of the best handheld PCs of it's time. It has great specs and a huge screen for all your gaming needs. It also has joycon like detachable controllers. While detached right side controller can be turned into a function mouse with included base. Can be used as an alternative to a gaming laptops.

Got this one to replace a SteamDeck. A few points here: - It's bigger and heavier, but the trade of for a bigger screen and detachable controllers worth it - Windows sucks. If not for the fact I could install Bazzite/SteamOS on it, it would be a no-go from the start. - Forget the 512BG model. 1TB is the bare minimum you will need - The community add-on made this device a great deal (software, 3D printed accessories, etc). - Can't wait to test an external GPU with it

Everything looks amazing but the device is noticeably heavy for portable device. The battery isn't great. I tried several games on xbox and steam and they worked well. This would be great at closer to $600

I like it much more than the Steam Deck and ROG Ally. The big screen with detachable controllers, and the fps/mouse mode get it the win. While at the desk I have mine running through an eGPU via Thunderbolt and the performance is awesome on an external 1080p or 1440p monitor, with the right GPU. RTX 4060 seems to be plenty.

So i recently purchased this legion go and wanted to try it because of the big screen. I love the bigger screen . I have the ROG ally and i use that also but the different is the VRR and yes it does make a difference with multiplayer like for call of duty. Hopefully the next version they will add it and maybe bigger screen like the new onexplayer thats coming out with a 10” . I will suggest to get a 100w battery pack if you are traveling with this

I have been using this a month now and its great. Better performance than I was initially expecting. I love the tablet design too. I load Bazzite Linux on it with no problem. If you used Lossless Scaling this device punches way above it weight.

Works fantastic for such a small package. The screen is crisp and the controlers handle smoothly. A big draw back though is the power draw, it definitely sucks battery at max settings. Purchasing a battery extender certainly isnt a bad plan if you plan to be mobile.
