Great but heavy
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So far I love everything about the Legion go except for the size which ironically is why I bought it in the first place. It’s still portable, but it is a lot to carry around so that that’s something to keep in mind.

Better than ROG Ally and Steam deck
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I owned both Steam Deck and ROG Ally. Legion Go despite having weaker speakers and a little bit noisy fan but I found it to be superior to both my devices due to its detachable and very accurate controllers + docked mode + Track Pad and FPS mode which is a game changer. while travelling I have it hooked up to my VR glassess and I was productive the whole flight and when off in hotel playing my favorite games. Very nice product!

Ally X or Legion Go????
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had the privilege of having both Legion Go and Ally X handheld systems. Amongst my gaming buddies, they have opted for the Ally X -- the sound is superb and immersive, the controls just contours perfectly into your hands, the long battery life + not so humongous form factor is practical when it comes to portability. The Ally X is a true hardcore gamer's first choice. But..... if you are like me where you truly appreciate the 8.8" and 2560x1600 resolution, then the LeGO is for you. The issue for me is, once I've played on the LeGO, the 1080p rez on Ally X made me wanting more. I kept on going back to my LeGO (I just couldn't enjoy the graphics of the AllyX's 1080p). So ultimately, I just returned my AllyX and kept my LeGO. So for traveling to an AirBnB or Hotel, the LeGO was my weapon of choice. But for the airport or the park, I just bring my OLED Switch. In the end, to each their own. I'm aware that my opinion is the minority and 90% will opt for AllyX (serious hardcore gamers), but for a casual gamer like me, it's a win / win -- LeGO (while plugged in) and Switch (while on the go).

The most impressive handheld on the market
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Legion Go surpassed all my expectations, this thing is powerful and a lot of fun. I was in the market for a small laptop that I could also game with on the go since I travel often. I was looking at the ASUS Rog Ally but once I saw the huge screen on the Legion Go I was set. Specs wise the 2 are identical except for the 8.8in screen on the legion. Lenovo has a lot of support for this thing and all the updates have made this machine simple the best. When the manufacturers support their customers and listen to request, its easy to put your faith on that Brand. Lenovo knocked it out of the park.

Love my Legion
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I don't normally review products in 30 days because it doesn't give me enough time to fully experience the item. It's fine. It's great to use when my kid uses my computer and I get the sudden back to play a game. I don't like always being on computer so having this Legion Go is the best thing ever. I love that it was an open box and as a fair item it works like brand new. I love how a few of the employees were helpful and their experience using a Legion Go helped me accept taking the plunge into my first ever open box item.

Mixed bag. It’s so so.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted to love it. Big beautiful screen, decent battery, clean looking. Unfortunately I returned it. It’s bulky, ergonomics aren’t great for me, lack of VRR. The software is very clunky and slow. I love Lenovo products but in my honest opinion I’d look towards either the ROG Ally or steamdeck on this one.

Lenovo Legion Go
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Lenovo Legion Go is an awesome handheld gaming device. The 8.8” 144Hz display looks amazing, games run smoothly with the Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, and the detachable controllers are a nice bonus. It’s powerful enough to play most PC games while still being portable. Definitely worth it if you’re looking for a premium handheld gaming experience.

Very happy with Lenovo Go
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After 4 weeks I am very happy with Lenovo Go. Great device for a portable unit. Plays most games very well. Few high end AAA need to have fps reduced. The controllers are so much better than Switch. But they do “bite” into palm during long play sessions. Bought the 512 version and upgraded to 2TB right out of box. Very glad I did this. I have more than 1TB of stuff loaded onto system.

The extra power I needed.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought to put Steam OS on. Not as efficient as the Steam Deck but had the extra power I needed to properly play Expedition 33. Definitely needs a power bank to get decent play time out of it at 20 watts.

On the go or at home is a beast.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At home I run the games off my pc and get crazy battery life by streaming over my network to the Go. Playing games at max settings on the 8.8 inch 144hz 1600p screen is breathtaking. On the go its still very good play most games very well at 1200p 60+fps and having decent battery life at 25W power setting. Highly suggest you give it a shot. The biggest complaint people have is the lack of VRR but I never even noticed a difference.

Legion Go
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really nice device. Screen is huge and colors are great. The device itself feels really nice to hold, and the detachable controllers and mouse mode is insanely cool. There are a few bugs with the software, but its a brand new device for lenovo in this space, so i think it will get better it the coming weeks. All the negative reviews here are from not recieving it on launch day which is unfortunate, but not the fault of Lenovo or the Legion Go so those reviews are pretty much invalid to the product. I recommend this thing!

Overall, great handheld option
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product, great display, runs xbox game pass flawlessly. Only draw back is battery life, can really only get a good 2/3 hours of gameplay in before the battery dies. Other than that, no complaints

Posted .Hey MattC,
Thanks for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us!
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 are glad to read that the Legion Go has been otherwise great for you.

Great looking hardware
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The go has a great display and overall the build quality comes off premium. To me its the almost made it device. I wanted to like it so badly but there were 2 major issues with the multiple units i got. They have a very loud whistle/whine coming from the fans. Im fine with fan noise but a constant hugh pitch sound really gave me a massive headache. Want to download a game be ready to walk away because that whistle is going to be there the entire time of the download. The other major issue is the software is so bad. It really is sad to see a product launch with software this bad. This is of course something that can inprove with time but considering the software it launched with was shown 2 months before launch and has not changed at all it does not give me a bunch of confidence to hold onto the device and wait around to find out if it actually improves. I guess there is 1 more big issue. Button placement is terrible. I was pressing buttons without trying to just holding the device. Its obvious they focused these buttons around the FPS mode which is just a terrible idea for a handheld device.

Legion Go amazing
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.this has been great so far. i have no issues with it. controllers are great screen is great cause of the large size. does not have vrr. which would have been nice. but the memory card reader is not broken like the ally unit with the over hearting issue. so hardware is great but software needs alot of work. but that will come with time i have using it and loving it. RDR2 is giving me about 50fps on it and love it. have replaced it with a 2tb m.2 super easy.

Tiny powerhouse
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This little handheld gaming computer packs some serious punch. I'm glad I got it later for them to iron out at least a few of the kinks. I haven't had many issues that would warrant me wanting to return the device. The sound isn't bad for the size at all. Tolerable. Gaming takes some tweaks depending on the game you're playing. I usually set everything to 1080p and 60fps capped. Same when docking it to my tv. It handles quite a few newer titles even if only on low to medium settings. Fine by me! I like having a computer that isn't a backbreaker to lug around. I will warn the casual user though this will take someone who enjoys fiddling with settings for a while to get things smooth. And even then you'll get the occasional game that just gets whacky changing graphical settings or just wont have it. But I tested with quite a few games I had including indies, AAA's and emulations. All worked fine enough for me. The screen is great, the build quality is good. The touch screen makes life super easy as the track pad is functional... but small. Grab it on a sale! I got an open box for about 200$ off.

The screen size is perfect and having the software is really come a long way since release.
