    This device is more geared towards indie/AA games. A direct competitor to the steam deck.

    Screen size is awesome and Cristal clear, most games on my steam account didnt run well on a hand-held. The few games that did run didnt run the best but were payable. For the price i decided to return the device, if it was cheaper it would be worth the few games that worked but at this price its not worth it

      Hi MattR-

      Thank you for choosing Lenovo and sharing your experience with us. We are thrilled to hear that you are enjoying the reliability and efficiency of the Legion Go S. We aim to offer great user experience and would like to share some actions you can take to improve your battery life.

      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, leading to longer gaming sessions. Whenever possible, we also suggest lowering the resolution of the Legion Go S to extend battery life.

      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
