Great Gift
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ive had it for quite some time and will say that it is quite sturdy. Everything runns smooth. There are plenty of quick menu settings or easy access features. The game performance was pretty impressive...I played warzone on it...Its dependable and reliable... I dont have anything negitive to say about it other than it makes a random noice here or there lol...

I love this handheld
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best hand helds I own. I have been throwing emulators on it,increase the vram to 6gb. Runs great on a hot spot as well. I have a steam deck and I play on this way more because it is super convenient and super easy to add things on. It is literally a gaming pc in your hand. I would recommend it to everyone.

Solid portable gaming tablet
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall fun device, very easy to manage power output for longer battery or high quality games. Also being able to detach the controllers and use one as a full mouse is a plus

Finally, a handheld that plays COD
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been through several of these including the ASUS and none of them would handle COD MW III. This Lenovo not only handles COD well but with the kickstand and detachable controllers you can use it with a regular Xbox controller if you want to and you probably will since it is pretty bulky and trying to play a FPS on the controllers while holding the whole unit gets old after a while.

Some drawbacks
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The battery life is terrible for most of the games I play but at least it can run them. I sometimes have to stay plugged in for longer gamming sessions which suck with their flimsy usb-c adapters. I wish this came with a docking station or something comparable for longer gaming sessions. Also the thumbpads come off and are easy to lose and hard to replace.

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).
Also, while the Legion Go does not ship with a hub or dock, there is a Legion Go Docking Hub that currently offered at Best Buy that can be viewed on its product page at this web address: https://www.bestbuy.com/product/lenovo-legion-go-docking-hub-black/JJGCYLK9FJ

Excelent for gaming
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think i made the best choice. Although, i wish it had more space but overall it runs many games pretty well. It easily runs minecraft with like shaders and stuff really well and also runs cyberpunk and forza horizon 4&5 pretty well.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I own a switch OLED, and an Rog Ally, but this is now my favorite handheld. The 8.8" screen touch pad and scroll wheel are game changers. While the lenovo software is trash and i despise it, I'm a long time Windows user and don't mind some tinkering here and there. It's just a little more than what i already do on my desktop and gaming laptops. Overall i think it's an amazing service for gaming if you have the patience and tech know how.

Legion GO is a GO
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So the screen is so immersive and pulls you right in, going right along with the comfort of the device in your hands it feels premium. The battery is just okay and on par with other handheld pcs, and software was obviously lacking and inferior at launch but has gotten better over time, and appears to be getting overall fixed and improved every week. Seems like it will truly be everything they claimed it to be and extremely impressed.

A great handheld often available at a good price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the Steam Deck more but this is a great handheld. The screen is wonderfully large and vibrant. Games run very well and look fantastic. While I prefer Steam OS, some games that won't run on it will run great on the Legion Go.

All around Impressive device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very impressed by the performance and build quality. Lighter than I imagined it would be. My one and only critique would be the RT LT buttons. There should be a way to reduce travel on them. It is tough using them on FPS. You can program buttons to whatever you want so I use the side and back buttons for aim shoot.

Legion Go
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm loving the legion go so far. It's a powerful gaming tool in the palm of your hands. The controllers are comfortable and despite it's size, it's not as heavy as you'd first imagine. I've run some high end games with a little tweaking but I'm primarily using it for leveling alts in WoW or playing older games using emulators. I'd highly recommend for people tired of sitting in front of their monitors.

Deployment worthy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got this product for my deployment; very handy especially when you’re limited on space but still want to be able to pc real quick without the extra items (minus the charger). Battery life isn’t the best when gaming but what do you except. 9.9/10 item in my book.
