    The legion go even after being released for 2 years is a great machine. Only concern is 16 gigs of ram.

    I've used it on an off, it's great. It runs a game's pretty well. I'm able to play AAA games usually at medium settings to low settings bond screen that small. It's really hard to notice, the only reason why I'm voting it for stars is just the battery. It comes with a territory going again. Again, handheld the battery's not going to be great but that's slightly more expectation

    This got me back into video games again. Its portable, not too heavy and the display is great! Takes some time and instruction setting it up. I needed someone younger to give me guidance on set up. But I love it! Something to do while I'm at work on a slow night, or just sitting on the deck woth a good cigar. This thing is pretty powerful and fun.

    I was doing a lot of research between this and the Rog but I’m pretty happy with going for the Lenovo over the Rog. Both are great devices but this one had more positive that negatives. I can get a good hour and 30 minutes while playing on performance without any breaks, I’ve been able to play destiny 2 with no issues of the processor not being able to keep up with the graphics or speeds. All in all it’s a great mini pc!!

    My Legion Go is amazing, it runs my games very well and the resolution is great. I think I chose the best option. It has a lot of capacity and the best part is that I can use its separate controls.

    I’m a new pc gamer so let’s start with that. I have the steam deck oled and with all the hype around the ROG ally x, I thought I’d get the Lenovo legion go to try it out before I get the ROG ally x. But I’ve been using the Lenovo legion go more than the Steam deck oled and tbh I haven’t touched my oled since I got the legion go. Where do I even start, the screen is so big that it makes my jrpg games look great (not that the graphics in the Steam deck oled is bad because it’s great) and I just have been enjoying my games more. I also like the two usb c ports, one on the top and one at the bottom so I get to have options where I plug the charger. But the only minor thing I don’t like about the product are the speakers coz it sounds a bit muddy but it’s only minor and won’t make my star rating lower. I have yet to try and use the controllers like the switch so that’ll have to wait if I ever decide to play FPS.

    AMAZING PURCHASE & YOU SHOULD PURCHASE IT TOO

    When I think of the Legion Go, I think of "3 in 1". Let me explain: 1) It is a handheld console, 2) It is a console where it can be docked, and 3) it is a mini PC. At first I was thinking if I wanted the PS5 or PS5 Pro, then I saw the price on the PS5 Pro and realized Sony is making up for its big L as of late and decided instead to buy the Legion Go, and, I am NOT disappointed. So far, I've stressed the crap out of it as we all should to see its full capabilities. Now, if you buy the Legion Go, I simply assume ut is because you're a gamer and that's great but before you do, this is what you need to know: (1) Go on Steam and invest into "Lossless Scale" and it will be your greatest ally with any handheld console devices and give you a boost in FPS as you will enjoy it with the Legion Go as well. Now, is this piece of software perfect? No, but it is beginning to as when it does catch up with Nvidia and/or AMD, it will cost way more than $6.99 so take advantage of it now. (2) Every games has a sweet spot when it comes to the resolution as trust me for a handheld resolution is the difference in how well it will looks compared to the graphics tweaks because the screen isn't a monitor or TV but a smaller screen so everythingvalmost looks amazing even at medium. And what I have found is that the sweet spot just like on a gaming PC is 1440p for the Legion Go. Now, once in a while, you'll have to go down to 1200p, but most of the time you can game at its full native 1600p or take it down to 1440p High to Ultra. I have also observed that going to medium does not increase frame rates, so might as well keep it at high or ultra. Now, if the games come with DLSS or FSR and Frame Generation, you're gonna get a massive frame boost. And if not, remember what I said earlier about Lossless Scale. These features in game are always best because they have been tuned for the game, but Lossless Scale is an amazing addition to games that do not have those additions. (3) When you connect it to an external monitor, you can completely max out the resolution of your TV or monitor, and the Legion go will handle it just fine. Watching Youtube at 4K or Netflix and other apps of such is a breeze. Now, when you extend the screens, make your external monitor is your main as it will tell the Legion go to give all of its juice to the external (same with laptops). Now, that being said, when playing video games, you must turn the resolution back to 1440p on your external monitor or TV because the Legion Go cannot go passed 1600p so trying to play at 4K will NOT be a great experience unless your TV or monitor has a dedicated GPU that will help boost FPS. (4) What software can it run? I use Blender, Adobe After Effects, Premier, and Photoshop. So did I stress the crap out the Legion Go where the fans were screaming? Yes. Can the Legion Go run these software? Yes. But can it run them like a powerful desktop or laptop? Nope. If your project is simple and you are on the go and just doing a concept then the Legion go will do just fine. But, if you're thinking of doing some massive projects with an end result using tge Legion Go, it simply wasn't meant for that and will freeze on you. If you can afford the Legion Go, I assume you have a $2500 desktop or laptop and thus use those instead. (5) A great additional purchase is a dock that has fans in it with inputs and outputs to ensure the Legion Go fully becomes a mini desktop to run everything like a PC would. (6) If you are well aware of using a PC, the Legion Go will be no different as when you boot it up, you do it like a PC so make sure everything is up to date. Once it is, enjoy a much more efficient and faster Legion Go. (8) The controllers work great attached or seperated and you can sit on the couch and the Legion Go can be near your TV and it will be just fine with little to no lag because the lag really comes from how well your TV or monitor responds. And, also be aware that once separated, the battery will drain out so instead connect abother gamepad instead and use that as wireless gamepads last much longer. Now, my only beef with that is that external gamepads have to use the USB C port as even when docked, it won't respond to USB connected external controllers. I hope this will be fixed with a software update. (9) The interface is very easy to use and there are plenty of alternative settings to make the Legion Go how you want performance wise because remember it is just a handled console and not a desktop. And for a handheld console, you want options but just enough so you can focus more on other things the Legion Go can do and do very well. And lastly, (10) I hope this review helps you decide if you want the Legion Go or not but be smart always and wait like I do for a sale, then snatch it for 500 bucks or 600 bucks depending of which one you get. As for me, I am very happy with the Legion Go and will be sad once there is a new version but AMD is really good at sharing new tech and making it possible to use with older tech and so I will only upgrade my Legion Go if the new Legion Go is literally a beast with nee updated hardware and an Oled screen. I mean the PS5 Pro isn't that much improvement from the PS5 because they all share a similar architecture from heandheld to consoles so that is why the PC race is still the master race ahaha. As consoles are becoming more PC and keeping the price low is the only hope that they sell out to make up for how much it truly cost to make a console. I love my Legion Go and 100% believe the other handheld consoles cannot beat it because it is powerful and too versatile.

    The handheld performs smoothly. I owned another brand before this one. I can't help but compare the two. The Legion Go is more versatile by far and more powerful as well. Everything has worked to my satisfaction so far. However, you are still at the mercy of Microsoft Windows. The updates have been very annoying.

    Although i did enjoy this handheld a lot, its got a very horrible battery life. I would have a full charge and would even play a non triple A title for anout 30min and my battery life was at 50%. Keep in mind I even had performance and resolution dialed down a bit. The good parts about this device is the quality of picture, the feel of the device and the weight isnt too bad despite what some youtubers have said..they could grow a pair imo. The greatest part about this device is that amazing screen! The size of the screen makes you feel more immersed and its something to definitely appreciate. With that being said though I would wait for the next iteration with a better battery life.
