      Hi,

      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 you are otherwise loving your purchase.

      Please don't hesitate to reach out to us via the Q& A section of this product page or contact Lenovo Support should you have any questions or need assistance.

    I think this is the type of handheld you use at a low TDP because the second those fans ramp up you instantly get annoyed knowing the price you paid for this thing. Steam OS is super easy but kinda boring, and a lot of my steam library is not fully compatible. The back breaker is the horrible WiFi chip showing weak signal strength no matter where I am in my house. The 2 stars is for the comfort, and I don’t believe this is worth the price even if it goes on a big sale.

    My husband bought this for himself, and he absolutely loves it.If you are a steam player and you buy those games from steam I suggest you buy this council.Because it loads right up. There is a way to even add the older games for 90s. Kids on here from ps 1

    I wish it had OLED and a better battery. It’s a good product, regardless. The fans get loud sometimes.

      Hi GIBRILJ-

      Thank you for choosing Lenovo and sharing your experience with us. We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the Legion Go S. We aim to offer great user experience and would love to recommend a few actions you can take to improve battery life and fan noise.

      The Legion Go S can adjust the active performance profile and fan speed of the device based on your needs. To start press the hexagonal options key located on the right controller, then select the performance tab represented by the rocket ship, from here you can adjust the performance mode. We suggest using Quiet Mode which will reduce power consumption and reduce fan noise, leading to longer, quieter gaming sessions. Whenever possible, we also suggest lowering the resolution of the Legion Go S to extend battery life.

      We have also noted your comments regarding an OLED display, and we may use your insight to improve future products.

      Please reach out to us through the Q & A section of this product page if you have any questions or need any assistance.

      Best wishes,
      Lenovo Lenovo

    Very cool system, however not compatiable with epic games. So we had to exchange for the Legion Go on windows so that my daughter could play games she wanted.
