    This is a great device. The 8 inch screen and Steam OS sold me. I'm very pleased with my purchase. I would definitely recommend.

      Hi,

      Thanks for choosing Lenovo and for sharing your feedback with us!

      Regarding the battery life, since the Legion Go can pack gaming laptop level performance in a handheld device, power can drain quickly. 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 you are otherwise satisfied with your purchase.

    if on sale get it over the Xbox ally x if you do not care about battery they increased the cpu and gpu to 40 watts rather than 25/30 and gets a bigger bump inperformance than you would think.

    Excellent bang for the buck in terms of gaming handhelds, plus the official support for SteamOS makes this the Steam Deck's bigger brother. Was an excellent gift for one of the gamers in my life that did not want to be stuck at their gaming desktop all the time.

    Best Gaming Handheld Yet

    I’ve had a Switch for a long time. Then I got the original Legion Go which was great. However, i ran into performance issues with more demanding games. And Windows 11 on a handheld is terrible. When this Legion Go came out with the more ram and SteamOS I decided to give it a try. It’s amazing. Very easy to connect to Steam and start playing. No tedious tweaking and setting configurations required. I’ll always have a SteamOS handheld from here on out.
