    This was a huge upgrade coming from the steam deck. The 8-inch display compensate for the lack of an OLED screen display.

    If you have a steam deck this feels like the SD 2. Reviews say it’s 15-20% better performance but feels like more.

      Hi LynnW,

      Thanks for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us. We're sorry to hear that battery life fell short for you. We strive to provide the best experience possible, so if you'd like to, we want to work with you to address this pain point.

      To start, 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 your experience with the Legion Go S has been otherwise great overall.

      Please let us know what else we can do to improve your experience, as your satisfaction is important to us.
