    Very nice device, all games run very well. The device is a bit big for my hands, but is not a problem. The screen is nice a big, much better then the switch. I recommend it.

    Legion GO

    This device is incredible! I have traded in my Xbox Series X because I do not feel the need for it after purchasing this device. It takes some adjustments, especially with the horrible software support from Lenovo. However, if you aren't afraid to change some things, this is a fantastic buy. The screen is huge. It does make it a little less portable than something like the Steam Deck or the ROG Ally, but it also makes the games all the better. It's also crystal clear. Perfect for media consumption or games. The removable controllers is also a HUGE plus. Completely removes the need to carry an additional controller with you. Also FPS mode makes it so you can play games that are mouse and controller only much easier.

    This is a great device and its not for everyone. If you plan to play this like at a hotel or your house its great but you plant to play at dr office or bus etc you might want something smaller more portable. it ony has 2 problems battery life not the greatest you can get like 1 hour and 30 on demanding game on balance power setting and 2 30 on low demanding game on balance power if you go to performance 1 hour and 15 mins. So basically its great for around the home but if you want to go place you can but I would recomend something smaller more portable. This is best option if you plan to also use it as a portable pc.

    The screen is the MVP. Its not quality of a Steam Deck OLED, but it looks great and its size was crucial for playing games not meant for the small screen. Though the 1600p resolution feels like overkill, so i never went above 1200p. The stuttering was a pretty common issue and the battery life it not great. I appreciate that FPS mode exists and its a great alternative innovation to playing M&K away from your desk, but it just wasnt for me. I feel like most of its issues are software related which seem to be getting better, but that along with me just preferring to play most of the games on the big screen was enough to deter me from the time being so i returned it. I'm just not the target audience based on the types of games I like: cinematic single player and shooters.

    Definitely a superior product, very innovative with its design and software! It’s not perfect but it’s one of a kind. Most games can easily be launched and played without any tweaking. For higher demanding games I did minor tweaks to graphics with this device easily playing games at 50-60fps consistently on medium-high settings with games such as mw3 and fortnite. The controls feel really solid in my hands, though the handheld is a bit heavy when holding and playing on the go. I enjoy the fps mode but have yet to fully utilize it as intended. The touchpad is sleek and responsive and the device has amazing haptics. Would definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys PC gaming and wants something convenient on the go. This thing is literally a PC handheld. It also comes with a high quality travel case which you can charge your device from a little outlet while it’s in the case. Overall a perfect 9/10 from me.

    This handheld PC is amazing every game i have played on it hasnt had any problem. I play highly demanding triple A games. Its basically a PC in your hand you can play games on. There are other handhelds out there that are great but i put this one as one of the top 3 for sure. Its a bit pricey but worth the price!

    I haven't had too much play time on it but i was pleasantly surprised. It did studder on some games but the graphics were probably too high. When I cranked them down it ran smooth. The kickstand and controllers are nice and it is big but doesn't feel too heavy.

    If you can handle the added weight it's a great form factor to play games on the go. Much faster than my old steam deck and with a larger screen much less taxing on my eyes

    Coming from a Steam Deck, there are a lot of things i love about Legion Go and a few things i dont. Positives: the main unit seems like it has fantasic build quality, the screen is a absolutely beautiful, fps mode actually works well, two usb-c ports is so convenient, pretty darn powerful, detactable controllers, Windows device? Negatives: Legion Space software is not fully baked and needs work, when the controllers are detached they are super light, but makes them feel a little cheap, the buttons are good - but i prefer the Steam Deck, Windows device? Overall, im happily surprised by this device.

    This is a nifty little device that can do a lot. It plays games really well and works as a computer on the go. The controllers feel really good in your hands. It’s more my fault but sometimes the legion button and settings button get pressed thinking they are start and select button as they are in the same spot as on the switch. It can play triple A games at low settings. The screen is very large and very sharp. Overall a really fun device to own

    Excellent product. Does everything I need it to do flawlessly. Great for console style(controller) and PC style(mouse and keyboard) games. The detachable joystick that doubles as a mouse is a game changer for RTS games. Highly recommend this product

    Besides BestBuy sending the wrong ssd size I appreciate them letting me try it out over the holiday and then making a return. It is a fantastic machine. Lenovo had a rough start. Right around the 24th of December 23 the most recent and last update i got before returning it is fantastic. Lenovo is on the right path. I think they should have ditched the 512gb and just had a 1tb or 2tb option. I personally don't compare this to the steamdeck because they both have their own styles. I do however feel that Lenovo is superior in power. If you want a big screen and know how to navigate windows 11 Lenovo won't let you down. If you struggle with computers go with the steamdeck more especially the oled. If you do go with the Lenovo, make sure you get the 1tb version or 512gig only if you plan to upgrade at your own risk. Cheers and never stop gaming.

    I have been using mine for two years now and I absolutely love it. I have owned the steam deck and the asus rog ally and for some reason with the larger screen, this unit just plays better. Its powerful, has a built in stand and so far is just great. Just like the steam deck though, you really gotta be careful with some games as they just will not work great on a handheld for various reasons.

    Excellent console with some drawbacks

    The console feels great to hold, both with the controllers in the console and detached. Relatively easy to set up gaming applications though I did hit a snag with Game Pass. The date and time were not automatically set out of the box, which caused my game pass games to not start up. Easy fix but just a warning. Fair warning: although it runs most of my games great, they do not always run well at 1440p, which is one of the biggest advertised features. If you were hoping to run higher end games on this at higher resolutions than Steam Deck, lower your expectations slightly. Also this thing eats through battery very fast on performance mode, maybe 1-2 hours of play before I need a recharge. Overall, love the console despite its shortcomings. If you're worried about fussing with Linux on Steam Deck, then this might be worth a look.

    With the screen and joysticks this is a better experience than the ally and the deck. It is heavier and the battery life is about 2 hours on performance mode but the way it plays games and how they look is a great trade off.
