Very useful product when lounging or on the go. Though LegionSpace software needs some work.

An amazing device.

An amazing handheld. Plays all games I throw at it really well. Was extremely amazed at getting FFVII Rebirth running on the device with very minimal tweaking. Would highly recommend getting this device especially if you enjoy using detachable controllers as well. I also use it as a tablet to watch videos whenever im cooking as well so it serves many purposes asides from just a gaming handheld.

Converted Gamer

I was an initial Steamdeck supporter, while a great system the larger screen, better processor and larger support for games on the Legion GO called to me. I haven't been disappointed with the purchase I use it daily to play my library of games not only on Steam but GOG and Origin (without having to mess with a workaround.

Nice handheld but not without its flaws

The Legion Go is a great device but not without its faults. The screen is large, and beautiful. It's powerful enough and designed well but then the shortcomings start to reveal. The battery life could be better. It's also unclear how to get the thing to go to sleep sometimes, so it may end up staying on and too hot when in the bag I keep it in. The detachable controllers seemed better in theory, and they were what initially drew me into the device. In practice, I can't say I've ever really used them. The controllers aren't super comfortable to hold long-term. And the device is just a little too big and cumbersome to be as handheld as you might think. Overall, I have high Lenovo brand loyalty and will continue to buy their products versus others but the Legion Go very much feels like a first gen device.

Amazing

Well what can I say about the go? It exceeded my expectations and is an amazing device ! The screen is beautiful and at 500 nits, it's perfect . People say it's not bright enough and I wonder? I'm maxed out at 70 lol. Battery?. Well it's got power and I get about the same as I would with my laptop. 3-4 hours which is more then enough for me . Ergonomics of the controllers are ok.. but nothing a grip can't fix . If you want a taste of everything in the pc world , well here you go! People need too understand , yes you can game out the box , but basic pc knowledge will make you love this machine even more . VRR? wish it was implanted from the beginning . That being said , hooking up to a monitor is nice BUT KNOW YOUR LIMITS . VRR with free sync would have been a game changer . But there is a way around this some what .. playing at 60? Feels sluggish ? Move too 144 hz . It does the trick . All and all this machine is amazing with some flaws but nothing too make you change your mind . I love it , some minor tweaks but that's why the go 2 is coming . This is my daily driver and will be for a long time .

Good choice with multiple uses...

I find this has versatility, as it is not only intended for gaming, but also can be used as a full Windows 11 computer. The screen is very bright and sharp with good colors. Touch is very responsive. The ram is shared, and setting to 8Gb in the bios helps game play. Also, set resolution down a notch can help with frame rate. Trying to be a Windows gaming console has drawbacks. The biggest issue is simply that most Windows games on Steam require a keyboard and mouse inputs. There are only some that are fully compatible for controllers, and others with limited controller support. So for full functionality, you must use an external keyboard / mouse. The sound output from the tiny speakers is poor - the sound quality needs to be improved. Using headphones is the alternative. Battery life is limited. If gaming, 2 to 3 hours is about the limit - be prepared to be near an outlet for longer periods of time. I also found, as others, that this generates a lot of heat. I can see where the Micro SD card could be "fried". I set the fans to a higher level in hopes to not encounter this. Frame rates were certainly not as good as a higher powered computer or console, but overall, I found games to be mostly playable - although with lower FPS. Overall, the console can play games, and double as a "mini laptop" on the go, and if found on sale, could be an entertaining device.

Lenovo legion go

Lenovo Legion Go has the potential to be better gaming wise, some game titles play better than others but only happens to installed games, doesn't apply to cloud gaming. Too much tweaking on the Amd app to get the installed games to run smoothly. The speakers sound terrible, even though I understand the conservative of power since the battery doesn't really last that long to begin with(only applies to gaming)good battery power when browsing and streaming movies. Other than that I love the size and the clarity of the screen, I don't really use the touchpad but At the same time I don't mind it being there. I like the detachable controllers but occasionally one might come off while holding it. I work at a hospital and on my breaks I like to game a little, but a lot of the times I'm tweaking the Legion go to play some titles. I play Call of duty normally and the stress of tweaking the settings to play this game without crashing has been a nightmare, too much video lag.

A great handheld gaming machine!

So far this mighty handheld has played every game I could throw at it with very few hiccups. The device feels sturdy and the large touchscreen is BEAUTIFUL, with fantastic color and a high refresh rate. Like most Windows-based handhelds, battery life will always be the weakest aspect, but there are a few tweaks you can do to somewhat alleviate the issue while still keeping gaming performance high. Easiest is to change OS power mode to "Efficiency" in the Legion Space app for ALL power profiles, including Performance profile. The Z1 Extreme is a mobile processor that was built to sip energy on idle and ramp up only when necessary. Leaving OS power mode on "Performance" or even "Balanced" is giving the processor extra watts that it doesn't need, so changing it to "Efficiency" means the processor will use no more watts than necessary. This will also free up power for the GPU side, which DOES need extra watts when playing intensive AAA games. Another tweak is to avoid the temptation of using a full 30 watts when creating a custom power profile, not unless you like your Legion Go to feel extra toasty with the fan on full blast. Turning it down to 20 or 25 watts will keep your Legion Go from overheating while extending the battery life in exchange for 1 or 2 less fps in-game. You can find many more tweaks online to further maximize battery performance, but these tweaks alone will allow for longer gaming on battery over the usual default settings on this great handheld.

Old gamer coming from a PS3, this is awesome!!

As an older person coming from a PS3, this Legion Go is awesome. It took some time to get it set-up to my liking. I've enjoyed every moment I've started a game up. I tried an Ally Z1E, but realized I'd prefer a bigger screen. This fits that in every way. No plans for replacing this with the Go2, although I'll be first in line waiting for the Go2 controllers they look more comfortable. For the time being I'm using the Comfort Grips found on Etsy.

Almost perfect game streaming powerhouse but...

Basically a mini-pc with joysticks and other gaming focus needs. Used it as a moonlight game streaming client and it's perfect. The only imperfection is the whiny fan, where there's a high pitch noise at low speed and the default fan curve is too loud for a silent stream machine. Would give it a 5 stars if they could fix those two issues.

Great handheld for around the house or on the Go

The Legion Go is an amazing little handheld, I've used other handheld gaming devices in the passed but this by far has been my favorite. It runs games very well with a little bit of tinkering in the settings. I've played everything from Dave the Diver to BLOPS6 without any issue. It works great in handheld but really good in a dock when you can upscale. My only concern is it you're using it on the go for an extended period of time you'll definitely need a power bank to go with it. The batteries on the device don't last very long due to the screen. Again you can adjust settings to get more battery life. Overall I'm very happy with my Go and will more than likely be picking up a Legion Go 2

PRODUCTIVITY POWERHOUSE - Game - Local LLM - VMs..

Sincerely, this thing is amazing. I dual boot with bazzite, installed a VM inside to pop windows and it's a powerhouse in productivity. I do local LLMs, GenAI right inside the LeGo! And yes, it play games like hell. Just installed FF7 Rebirth and guess what? I'm at high setting with over 40fps... Forced FSR and RSR. It's a powerhouse! And the screen on top of that is AMAZING! To tell you the truth, I was about to buy a laptop, but choose that in the end. Added a portable screen and a 65% keyboard I've made with a dock and really... Don't need anything else.

Fun handheld, incredible versitility.

This is one of my favorite purchases of 2024. As a career professional and busy parent i appreciate the portability of this powerful hand held. I can play my favorite games anywhere or leave the controllers home and browsers the internet while waiting for the kids. I picked up a neoprene sleeve, keyboard and mouse to use with it as a mobile work station. It works perfect for mt needs.

I sold my steamdeck after I bought the legion GO. It just collected dust afterwards. Can't wait to get the next version either.

Not the best but not the worse.

I give it 3 stars because It did play older game titles. But when it came to newer title games people boasted how it well it handles them. I had nothing but issues even putting the settings of the game in the lowest i could set them. Honestly I think the biggest issue was RAM. If it had more than 16gb of ram it would have ran better. I hope the Legion Go 2 has more than 16. Storage upgrade should have been made user friendly.

Best of all 2024 handhelds for premium features

Great device that runs most games from emulation to recent, depends on graphics settings. I would recommend this to someone who knows how to tweak bios and Windows, or at least can follow instructions on how to do it. 512gb storage is a bit small. Love the 8.8 inch screen, can't imagine going any smaller after using this. I use it handheld at home or docked as an entertainment station to watch movies and play games. Battery life is not great, but with the size, it's not super portable anyway. Owned for about 3 months and no issues or complaints so far. Warranty option direct from Lenovo is great and affordable.
