Lenovo legion Go - amzn.to/3NzfgCy
The lenovo legion go is a handheld mobile gaming PC similar to the steam deck OLED and Asus ROG ally. Unlike these however, the lenovo legion go is more of a full PC with the potential to replace your gaming laptop with this new much more versatile and compact form factor.

Another major selling point is that it has 2x USB C 4 ports. No proprietary connections. So attaching an eGPU or charging the device while connecting an external drive or other peripheral is super easy. Ally and SD only have one port as far as I know and they're not USB C 4.

I think this is probably a good screen size to manage portability and function. The number of people playing by hooking up a mouse and keyboard but still using this display is probably pretty small. More likely they'll put it in a dock with a tv & controller, or with a monitor and keyboard/mouse.

Mine is in the mail. Goal is using it with a 60% keyboard I bring in my bag anyway. My 13 in laptop recently kicked the bucket. I think the smaller screen will be fine because 90% of the time I can dock my laptop and the other 10% of the time I am not working and probably playing a lighter game. Friends and I are already planning more LANs. So at the very least it's making more close gaming opportunities.

Recently i ve got this lenovo legion go and i m really impressed by this device, it was a go to because of my old eyes an 8"+ display is more comfortable. I like the detachable controler, pretty powerfull for such a small thing, with a mouse, small keyboard and even an external portable monitor you can carry all in a 17" laptop case with a ton of accessories. With a 10" inch display this could kill a laptop, it could get better cooling and even more versatility, but for 8 or 10" display i think 1440p is a bit overkill, 1080p for this size is more than enough, more power and perf efficient for an integrated gpu, maybe FHD+, but 1440p not so usefull in such a tiny display.

laptops and desktops have their uses which I doubt will be replace anytime soon. This legion go is versatile that you can doc to Monitors to become a PC or a mini tablet, the main selling point is ofc a handheld gaming device that runs all your games on the go from any platform and also Emulates games from the Switch, overall $700-800 for all this is not bad at all. not saying it will happen, but this kind of device reminds of the idea one in all xD and could potentially be huge in the future to come.

Actually Was looking for a video around this. Now I was also thinking this is too early to invest in such a system since it's bran new and still has much power and edges to smooth out before a guarantee purchase. So one of my questions is Coming from Gaming Phones which currently have gen 3 chips. They are not close to this yet. So my real question is how far is the Extreme Chip on Ally and the Chip from Legion Go compared to the ever Popular gaming systems like PS5 and Xbox.

I love the device, just wish they'd add a button mapping to the xbox home button. Makes it annoying when using as a Steam Deck on steroids. I really dig the Tunderbolt 4, can plug it into an EGPU and it's a beast, slightly glitchy over Thunderbolt but it's a big advantage on the others. I have a ROG Ally as well, which I also like, it's more user friendly as a handheld but as an all rounder, the Legion Go is ahead.

I don't understand in what world one would push that res and refresh rate. The frame rate whiplash of running something simple and low poly over 60hz, then a big boy game that barely scratches 30fps would kill me. It mildly irks me to go from 120hz to 60hz alone from my PC to the Deck. Seems like a massive cost increase for only a handful of titles one would be able to take advantage of with the given hardware and bandwidth of this chip. I get that you can alter the rafresh rate and resolution, but it's just strange to have to make concessions on every game while you're still being charged for that display that you still won't take advantage of....

These things are getting better and cheaper with time. And quite rapidly, too. I agree with your sentiment that these are going to trump laptops. I just wish Microsoft would read the room and do something similar to Valve: have a controller optimized OS on one side of things with the ability to switch to full Windows desktop mode. Windows isn't very friendly with handhelds. I can see a beefier version of Xbox OS as a front end for all of your games and if you feel like the full PC experience, switch to desktop mode.

I bought to use primarily as a tablet, not for gaming. It's the ONLY tablet under 9" or really 10" for that matter with high resolution and fairly premium specs. I agree a matching keyboard would be awesome. Because this has USB4, you can connect an egpu. So this really could be a desktop replacement (with egpu, larger monitor and possibly external drive), a laptop (with matching keyboard), a tablet AND a gaming handheld. A larger version would be a nice addition, as long as they still sell a smaller one like this! I think it's fantastic!!

The leGo is way too big to travel in my opinion. That’s the one thing he didn’t cover in the video. The resolution is nice but not many games) you’ll be able run at 1600p unless you want 15fps. I find my self only using this thing at home and have to turn it down to 800p to get 60fps in most games. (Triple A mostly.) The other thing it’s missing is variable refresh rate. I personally use the Ally more on the go even with the smaller screen the games tend to look prettier and I don’t have a problem with resuming game after I put the Ally to sleep.

So far we just have dumb improvements, like the ridiculous 64g ram and 4tb ssd on the new onexplayer. Like yeah i guess technically its an improvement, but when will you ever need 64 gigs of ram on a handheld. I DO think we will see price drops continue, but i just cant see anything thats noticably more powerful coming out anytime soon.

I work remote as IT consultant and I have 3 kids. What it solves for me, primary I don't require a bulky laptop now to game or do basic pc tasks when off work. I like that it's windows, I can rdp to all my virtual machines that I use for work. I can dock and play a game and be around the family rather than my office. Now I like to go camping and still work. I hated my laptop and now I believe I won't take my laptop at all. Just VPN back home, rdp to my work and light weight on the go device. Lastly a bit experimental I been wanting a centrally accessed gaming pc. I thought I was going to use old laptops to access but this device is great I plan on using it. I virtualize a gaming pc with a 4070 graphics card. I run legion go in balanced mode and remote stream my dedicated gaming vm. I like this solution because it removes most of the bugs and hassle when using your primary pc to remote stream a game. Hard to control all the resources as you it daily for other things and primary pc might have multiple monitors that bug out remote streaming games. So far it's been amazing exceeding my expectations. My wants were very niche but very thankful I randomly stumbled on legion go!

It’s a toss up between this and Asus ROG Ally and Steam Deck, based on preference. SD has better battery life, ROG is more portable and synching screen.

SD also has the smoother interface and quieter fans and runs cooler due to optimization. Really comes down to the need!

Only issue for me on this is the screen rez, going from native to the 1280x800 easily ads another 15-30 fps depending on the game. Certain optimized games like Halo Infinite i have running at a solid 60fps with some small drops during multiple explosions ect. Has been a blast for that. I haven't used this for streaming games from my PC yet. Overall i have loved this thing but don't think this type of thing is for me just yet.

What? You can literally change your native res to 1280x800....

@@ATLsF1N3ST91 But you have to do it for solid frames. It doesn't come out of the box for it. Alot of console players already hate they have to do minor setup things like this. The OOBE should be solid. Also when the company says "Hits X framerate in this game****" Yo u shouldn't have to read every asterisk on how to make it hit that. It should just hit it OOB.

@alexandergrace No.. Companies shouldn't dumb down their products for the lowest common denominators. If you aren't smart enough to drop resolution, you wasted your time buying a portable PC... It isn't a home console, meant for children like a Nintendo Switch. Buy THAT product for pick up and playability. It's only $200 for the Lite. Go that route.

Lol I love how PC gamers say the keyboard is totally natural. I’m a console guy that just recently started playing PC games and there is nothing natural about a keyboard hahahaha!!! But now I’m in the PC gaming world. I can’t believe I waited so long! I have a PS5 and Series X and I love them, but the experience with PC gaming, graphics, and the smoothness, I have to admit is far above any console. It really is. Now I just have to get better with a keyboard and mouse. I’ve been doing a bunch of research on expanding my gaming on the go and the Legion Go is on the top of my list!

As someone who owns multiple AAA game copies of the same game across pc and consoles, I will add that despite pc's having a higher ceiling, it's very easy to fail at customizing your settings or hardware itself in a way that looks worse than the closed system a console provides. Many times I've found games looking and running better on my consoles compared to my better gaming pc. Takes effort, time, and knowledge to tinker with your pc to bring out its potential. Console will always be better to me. Keyboards and mice are designed for typing, not playing games. But that means they work very well for my favorite type of game: mmo's 😁

Depends on the game. I play mostly with a controller. First person only games make sense with a mouse, unless it's all melee. Games with a lot of body movement in third person, like a lot of adventure games, Metal Gear games, and Soulslikes, it's controller all the way. The mouse is indisputably faster and more accurate, but I laothe keyboards. They're for typing, not moving, and it's long travel for no analog gradient in movement. There, controllers win for movement.

Interesting you think this looks beautiful. I think this device looks awful and it looks like it’s straight out of like 2004. I feel like whoever made this absolutely doesn’t have an eye for design, compared to the Asus ROG Ally I absolutely love how that thing looks. Intentionally design and attention to detail with style. The Legion looks crusty and greasy with fingerprints and clunky controllers. It looks more to me like a concept rather than a finished product. I guess that goes to show you that beauty is in the eye of the beholder! But those removable controllers are great. I’m currently a switch player and spending all day in bed yesterday playing Palia, sometimes I have to move on my side and therefore I detach the controllers so I can prop up the tablet against a pillow. Can’t do that with the Ally. I feel like that thing would just slide.
