Legion Go S with steam OS is outstanding
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This thing is just amazing. Beautiful design and it is comfortable in the hands. The 8 inch display is stunning ( even though it should have been an OLED. it can handle everything I have thrown at it. Would definitely recommend unless you are playing games with anti cheat.

Comfortable, not so powerful, large screen
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great device. Always loved steamOS. Glad to see it on a legion go S device. The screen looks gorgeous. But I would recommend pairing it with Z1 extreme as Z2 go is weak for a 1200p display, even with some indie games. Also, if you have small hands, be mindful, it’s too big! The weight is surprisingly very evenly distributed and well balanced, so you won’t feel it at all!

Exactly what I was expecting!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s literally like a handheld computer in your hands. My steamOS has a desktop version so I can surf the internet and jump back onto steam and play any game that steam can offer. If you’re looking for a great present for a young gamer, look no further!!

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the perfect that i own. It is super fast and powerful, and with steam OS, it rocks. The screen is bigger than the ally x, and it is about the same price, and i love the controller. The triggers are adjustable, but the buttons are a little loud. This makes it hard to game in bed with a loved one next to me. I know there are talks the new z2 extreme launching this year, but they are just talks. I dont want to wait for a few months and then deal with the problems of a new chip. This is the perfect device and it is available now. I recommend it.

Super Handheld
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter lived this handheld. Instead of paying a retro psp vita more than half cash or zelle buy this brand new monster with 12 months payment option you will never regret buying it

Look great and feels great but underperforms…
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Legion Go S SteamOS Z2 Go version kinda makes this variant viable but it still falls short. It looks great and feels great in the hand except the shoudker and trigger buttons which are a bif weird feeling. SteamOS is kinda good on this but still has some issue and bugs on these other handhelds. But most improtantly the battery is still too small and mediocre in comparison to the Ally X as well as the Z2 Go performance being a little lackluster.

great but runs hot
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this thing. Have to play with volume up as fans are busy working in high intensity games like God of War at max settings. Also careful to fully shut off prior to putting in case as mine turned on mid travel and extremely overheated as there was no air flow in the case

Posted .Hi OliverN-
Thank you for choosing Lenovo and sharing your feedback with us. We are excited to hear that you are enjoying the Legion Go S. We aim to provide excellent user experience for our products, and we would love to recommend a few actions you can take to improve your experience.
Firstly, the Legion Go comes with the ability to change performance profiles based on the user's needs. To start press the hexagonal Options key located on the right controller, then select the Performance tab indicated by the gauge symbol, under the Thermal Mode section you can change the Legion Go S into performance mode to enhance your gaming experience. You can also change the Fan speed to Smart which will reduce fan noise from the Legion Go.

Just buy it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this thing. It's not the most powerful handheld on the market but it definitely gets the just done. Replacing Windows with SteamOS is just a bonus

Good first handheld
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Lighter weight than I thought Initially. Battery life doesn’t last very long as expected when playing games like RDR2 and Cyber punk but otherwise does well. I’m surprised at the performance it’s really good for the price

Great budget handheld
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this before swapping out for the Z1E version and although this model is great , I wanted a little bit more performance out of it to make it future proof.

Love the legion go s
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Plays all the games I want to play on steam and allows me to play comfortably. I’ve had it for over a month and I love everything about it except the battery life of 1-2 hours and it can get alittle loud but not an issue for me since I keep it charging and play with AirPods. Can’t recommend enough, its awesome.

Decent but not great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's honestly a solid handheld but gets shadowed by the Z1E version. It isn't worlds apart but its noticeable enough for the price difference to be minimal, the Z1E is a better choice.

I finally bit to bullet, and don't regret it.
