Game on the go
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Performs much better than expected. I loaded Sims 4 with 1000+ CC easily. And it handles without load lag or graphical reduction. Also played Call of Duty and Elden Ring. Both of which looked great. This is a great on the go purchase.

Great screen, less than stellar ergonomics
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good device, love the power and screen on this handheld pc. Can get uncomfortable to hold for extended periods of time and even with the bigger battery, feels worse than the Ally in that regard. Still good

Perfect for me
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Perfect device for any situation! Very versatile for a handful of situations. Can be used tabletop as well as handheld with plenty of power to play pretty much any game with the right settings!

Legion GOes all the way
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Took some time to get used to it, this is my first handheld device besides a switch. So far, I love it. Runs games well, has some small issues with some new games but I’ve gotten the bugs worked out. Just need to update all the drivers and it’s a wonderful device. Can’t recommend it enough.

Perfect screen size, but not very ergonomic.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the screen size on this compared to my steam deck. Starfield also plays much smoother on this than my steam deck. My only complaint is that this console is not very ergonomic compared to the steam deck.

Legion Go
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Build quality is solid. Not a huge fan of how the controllers attach and detach but overall runs games just fine. I dont even use their software so its not a problem for me but so far has worked as intended.

Elite among handhelds
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ultimately I sold it to a friend. But it was nice and fun, just didn't like the having to do updates 3 different places. It's a nice unit. Better than the Asus z1 I had which I also sold. More of a console player I realized.

Get the new one with SteamOS from the start
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Device is heavy, and battery life is awful. The only saving grace is that you can now install SteamOS onto the device, freeing yourself from windows 11.

Posted .Hey Nathan,
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that power efficiency and system OS has been a hinderance for you. If you'd like, we wish to work with you to try to improve your experience and provide some perspective for you and viewers of this post.
To start, with battery life, the system is designed by default to give you the most performance possible, which decreases battery life, since more power draw equals more battery drain. You can press the Legion logo shortcut button to easily toggle power profiles to help prioritize battery life when necessary or create a custom profile that is the right for you.
With the system operating system, we offer this Legion Go and other Legion Go products with other operating system options, and we recommend purchasing a system that aligns with your preferences so that you can enjoy using the device how you'd like to use it.
Please feel free to reach out to us via the Q& A section of this product page should you have any questions or need assistance.
Best regards,
Lenovo

Amazing device with room for growth
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a new laptop to entertain myself when I'm stuck traveling to places i don't really want to be. I was ready to drop a considerable amount of dough on a new laptop. Thankfully i found the Lenovo legion go and it piqued my interest. After some research and YouTube videos i decided to take the plunge. I'm glad i did because it's a great device and nearly a third of the price i was ready to dish out. It has played the games I've tried quite well for a handheld. FH5, gta5, rdr2 and more. There's been some issues with deadzones on the joysticks, but it was fixed and Lenovo seems to be quite active and willing to update and improve the device. It's not perfect, but it's worthy of the 5 stars.

Everything I wanted rolled into one item
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since my purchase I have enjoyed it immensely for a few gacha games I play to modding Skyrim and fallout 4 or needing a little notebook for work the only honest downside to it is the battery it is rather lackluster in that department but what can one expect with what it can do

Nice handheld
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had to replace.my broken steamdeck and decided to try a larger screen with the lenovo. I really like it. It has a larger screen and the thumbsticks are backlit which is helpful for me when playing in the dark. Start up tends to lag a little but nothing too bad.

Posted .Hi RomisB, thanks for choosing Lenovo! Regarding the battery life, depending on the demand of the game you're playing, by pressing the Legion R button to launch the quick menu, you can switch to lower power mode to save battery. In the menu, under the performance tab, users can toggle thermal modes and prioritize battery life by using the default mode or creating a custom thermal mode should you not be satisfied with the 3 presets. 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). We're glad to hear that your Legion Go is otherwise working nicely for you. We really appreciate you sharing your experience and feedback with us.

Great, Just Know What You Are Getting
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Coming from a ROG Ally, this is a great alternative for those who would like a bigger screen. Just understand that this is running full Windows which means it will run most things but you may have to tweak some things. This is a solid device with good hardware but the software is still a work in progress. Legion Space is being updated but it is not there yet and needs a more straightforward way to download drivers for those who are less tech savvy. Lenovo's built-in software is not as good as Asus' on the Rog Ally but, per them, they are working on it. Know what you are getting into and you will have a good time. If you are uncomfortable with tinkering some while the software matures, choose the ROG Ally.

Best portable gaming option
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Gaming beast in your hands. This is the best handheld console you can get for this price tag. Comes with a hefty battery and storage capacity. I have also used this for development tasks and runs seemlessly on external monitor. No need for a laptop now.

Great but can be even better
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a few days of using it, I got used to its qwerks or however thats spelled. Took some setup time, Alot of it, and patience. Lenovo does release updates frequently so it’ll be a lot better down the road. Just wish the controllers were more premium built like todays controllers. overall compatibility with games and the Legion Go controllers can be better. For example, using steam I can play GTA games just fine, but for older CoD titles that are compatible with controllers on pc, do not recognize the legion go controllers. Maybe its a user error. but other than that, screen quality is amazing, power is amazing & lasts about 30-45min on a single charge. Worth it imo
