    Great for emulation older games and Indy games. Battery life is laughable on games that even remotely push the system but two and a half hours is fine for what it is. Windows is holding it back but Linux is still not ready

    Decent computer, but the battery sucks, the hardware doesnt play games that are steam deck verified, not sure if this is because the software if clunky, or if the harware needs better power optimization. The sound is also not the best.

    With any new device like this it wont be 100% perfect out of the box, but i will say that Lenovo is doing a good job of pushing out constant updates that are increasing performance and ease of use. Looking forward to seeing more and more updates.

    If you already know what to expect with these handheld PCs then you’re in for a treat. The Go has a beautiful 8.8 inch display and one of the best IPS screens I have ever seen. Been having a blast playing through my backlog of games

    Overall a great handheld unit. A bit bulky and not as comfortable to hold as the Steam Deck thus the 4 stars. FPS mode is great and a welcome change of pace on how to play games on the go. I would recommend this to a friend.

    Despite being late to the gaming handheld space, this is by far the best one of them all! You get so many amazing options and features (like fps mode) with ridiculously good performance. 10/10 Would definitely recommend
