    All I can say that it’s amazing, it does have a few fails but that could just be me. The speakers are not good at all and it can be heavy but overall I love it and my husband does too! Having the big screen makes it so worth it!

    So many things make this device stand out above the competition to me. The screen is gorgeous, and that size difference helps a ton. The detachable controllers are way more useful than a gimmick... To top it off, it has TWO USB4 ports. This thing can serve as a decently capable mobile workstation with the addition of a keyboard, mouse, cheap USBC dock, and cheap portable monitor! I wasn't sure if I'd really use it... But I haven't played a game in my desktop since I got it. The convenience of playing on the couch or in bed is amazing. You can also score some 3d printed comfort grips on Etsy that make it tons more cozy to hold.

    Great device, it’s not for people that had no experience with pc gaming, this is a handheld pc not a console, I have been using it 60% of the time to work, and 40% to game, this device is 237% more powerful than my core i7 11 nth gen work laptop, and I can notice the massive difference in performance, I expanded the storage woth a 1tb microSD and I have installed more games in it, no problem gaming on an microSD. Way better than the ROG Ally, and perfect screen, it is little heavy, but you get used to it as it is very comfortable in the grip

    Absolutely perfect for someone who already has a dedicated gaming Desktop or Laptop. This is a product you’d ideally get if you already know how Microsoft Windows works and how to navigate and trouble shoot a PC. It’s amazing for the value and is simply so far ahead when compared to the ASUS ROG Ally. I have both and find this one to be a better bang for your buck if you’re torn between the two. The bigger screen and more ways to play portably make it hard to go back to the ASUS ROG Ally. For gaming, it’s great, not amazing when compared to a dedicated maxed out PC but the fact it’s ‘great’ compared to one is an absolute achievement and makes this product feel magical. All games in the screenshot have been playable perfectly fine.

    Pros - good improvement from the steam deck and if you want windows for the freedom of playing any game you really want. Its great for that and the detachable controllers/kickstand is a bonus. Screen is nice and big but when you cut it down to 800p it looks terrible. Runs cool and fan noise can get high up there. . . The cons for me- terrible speakers like actually awful ive never heard speakers this bad actually and I'm pretty cheap testing out speakers under $10. Windows 11 is just a pain for handhelds, the freedom is there but you're in pain for it. The controllers are slightly worse with sharp edges and sd card slot is a little weirdly out. Not flushed with the device

    I wanted the ability to play literally any game I choose from the past 50 years. Now I can. Modern triple A titles and any classic you can think of. Beautiful display and hi fidelity graphics. Unplugged on max setting, you get 1.5 hours with modern games like Cyberpunk2077 or Reddead redemption 2. Playing games like Everquest or World of Warcraft net about 4.8 hours of play time. A modern phone with a hotspot is very helpful for connecting games that require authentication. Simply disconnect once your game is running. The unit can go into sleep mode, which works very well.

    First My laptop is an Legion 5 Pro 2022. Love the Legion Go on the go. Only a few weeks of use so far Love it. Bought the Insignia 140w charger it works fine with the Go. Like every new system that is released, bugs are bound to happen. From Console gamer PS5, PS Vita, and Gen 1 switch to just starting PC gamer began using Lenovo Legion gaming line. Yes I will upgrade to an 2TB ssd next 2 months or so, have an TeamGroup micro sd 1TB installed for my music and video files. I bought the Go over Steam Deck because of the bigger screen, switch like controls, the 2nd usb c(bottom might be a bad location), Kick stand, and like the feel of the unit. Only con is the speakers, got my headphones and/or earbuds to take care of that problem.

    Evey time i use the thing it takes about 20 mins or more constantly needing updates, restarts, etc. ive tried to play playstion app on it so i ca play doom when im not home , its not compatible, the battery can last a while 15-20 mins on performance mode while playing apex legends but if i were to play a full gane of trios 20mins or more the battery is dead, joysticks are good but the software for them needs updates every time you use it pretty much , and im not happy because im getting fed up woth it since it doesnt have anything besides two Type-C commectors one on the bottom other on the top whic is fine but i want to plug my controller in to play but that doesnt work, i bought a pair or AR glasses for a wider screen display, those need a port so i proped my device on its case to plug my glasses in and used bluetooth for my controller , that was okay but i have to reset and resync my controller each timei use it between playstation and the lenovo even though its a saved device it doesnt work, it works like a regualr pc but is more restrictive than a laptop when it comes to apps and sign in and this and that, it has become better now that windows finally added a passkey, i spent 4 hours tryong to sign in with steam which that was a nightmare and a half, it plays apex okay and respect it for that, but if yiu try and trade it into best buy even in excellent condition theyll only give you $180 for it . I do like it when its working but everything windows based always has a million issues , you have to sign in with your username and password 3-5 times for each accoun your syncing but now that passkey cane alomg it saved that constant headache, the device is good if youre using it every day but you have to manually update the thing each timeyou use it even whn you have auto updates turned on. I wish it was an apple product then i woudlnt evr havethese issues but also im poor so i cant afford alot

    I have previously owned a steam deck and and rog ally ,I have to say I I love this device.I had to buy a second one for my wife ,since we are trying to be more on the GO in life ,no pun intended.The fps mode is odd ,but honestly The coolest thing ever ,some games I can no longer go back to using a normal controller. Mad scientist at the Lenovo team I tell you.Gosh The Amazing Display .honestly knocked it out of the park when they made it .Best handheld on the market .If you know longer want to be stuck at the dreaded gaming desk ,this is the way to go .Hook up a decent eGPU to this bad boy with your preem thunderbolt port and your pretty much have a desktop on the go .Buy this product and live your life gamers .

    Works great as a gaming system, though battery doesn't last very long compared to console games. Docks with a standard USB to HDMI cable, and I've also used it as a laptop/tablet. I also love the ability to charge it while it's zipped up safely in the case.

    Love how compact and compatible the Lenovo go really is. I mean take it anywhere play with data on 5G and it runs Call of duty smoothly. At home with dual monitors works wanders. I’ve live streamed Rainbow Six Siege, call of duty and several other games no lag no choppy image. The display is crazy with its performance modes and 144GH display. Running 144FPS on COD. This thing has so much to offer I 100% recommend. Not to mention you get 1TB of SSD. I will say the controllers could be better with the analog sticks but the FPS is a pretty cool feature but gotta get use to the mouse.

    This device is the most useful tool I've had in a while. Full windows supported by strong graphics, 1600p 144hz big and bright. If someone told me it was OLED, I'd believe them. It's not, however. I've installed many, many games on my 1 tb ssd and many less modern games on the additional SD card. Games run smoothly, obviously not as good as a dedicated gaming pc, but really strong and I am happy with how smooth it feels. Although heavy, I find holding it is surprisingly comfortable. The FPS mode, utilizing the right controller as a fully functioning mouse is better than I thought it could be. With a Bluetooth keyboard I am off to browsing the internet and sending emails in seconds. So happy with my LeGo!

    Best device I’ve ever purchased hands down. I did buy it open box for more than the price of it brand new a month later. Hoping Best Buy can potentially accommodate but either way the device I bought was in near excellent condition and a 1 tb. Display is great the only gripe I have is with battery life. With some research you’ll find out the rog all x has double the battery life but you’re sacrificing the detachable controllers and the huge screen so you pick!

    So much power in a hand held device and the display is gorgeous. I cried when I saw it run cyberpunk in decent frames. This is the 4th handheld device I have owned and used after Gameboy Advance, PSP and Switch. The upgrade is insane. Battery life isnt top notch but can’t complain.

    This has been a great device for gaming on the go. I drive semi truck for a living and this has definitely replaced the switch and even for the most part my gaming laptop for the most part. Preformance is great, can run most newer games on low with no problems. And runs a lot of older games on high or better settings with no problems. If you are into emulation youlll be in luck this is a great handheld for that! I would definitely recommend a foldable bt keyboard especially for strategy games

    The hardware is really good. The 8 inch display is beautiful and it has a powerful chip set to run the most demanding games. The biggest drawback to the system is windows, which is not designed for mobile gaming. The other thing is the size and weight can be a little taxing to hold so using the kickstand is a must.

    I feel like this is not that much of an upgrade from asus rog ally. The fps mode is a cool concept but it isn't game-changing in any way since it feels a little jaggy, maybe it will be better in the future legion handhelds. I will help you decide if you REALLY want this or not in simple terms: 1. A very beautiful and big screen for a handheld. 2. Powerful Z1 extreme chip (Same as Rog Ally), but it has a faster RAM which makes the performance benchmarks better. 3. Currently, the software isn't fully optimized, but it has a lot of potential. 4. Buying the 1 TB option is always better since it is only $50 more for double the storage. 4. I feel like 16 GB ram doesn't do justice to the device since it also pulls its VRAM from the total memory. It would've gotten at least 4 stars if the RAM was 32 GB. 5. It is currently the best handheld, even if it is only slightly better than rog ally, there are no other handhelds that perform better than this right now. 6. The controllers feel good, but the Ally also had great controllers so not much of a difference here. 7. Fingerprint magnet—oh god, it is the biggest fingerprint magnet. Check out the pictures I've uploaded.

    Its amazing, i can play most of my games on 800p using intigerscaling or AI upscale to make use of the 1600p display no problem. The biggest problems that im having are delayed drivers and the lenovo legion space application both of which have been acknowledged by lenovo and they have promiced to fix this by December at the latest. The Ally had similar problems to begin with … so far I would recommend to anyone looking at handhelds that want more than a steam library and better performance than the deck. It’s definitely more of an enthusiast device but worth the extra couple hundred $$dollars..
