    Great for older and less demanding games. If you want a smooth 60 fps on newer or demanding games than get the more expensive version or even the older one with the z1 extreme chip.

    I bought the S and with my first experience it wasnt a good one. I fully charged it and with booting up I got glitched screens and laggy performance. I got to play CyberPunk for maybe 30 mins before I had to plug it back in. It was comfortable in my hands and it wasnt loud. But the graphics having that much lag and honestly the handheld its self just was not worth the price in my opinion. I retured it a day and a half later.

    I am a casual gamer and not very well versed in gaming PCs/consoles. Compared to the original legion go, this hand held did not meet my expectations. The screen quality is gorgeous - and that’s really the only nice thing I have to say about it. Immediately upon set up, the controllers would not work for typing. It was typing double no matter what and I had to use the touch screen. I finished set up, opened steam and the fan is already extremely loud. I tried updating/resetting the controller and nothing worked. I returned this product.
