This is a good step. I have a Legion Go now and I love it. The only change I would really make is to add more RAM. I hope Lenovo keeps the detachable controllers and other features form the Go when it comes out with the second-gen of the product.
Im drawn man. I own a steam deck lcd and want something more powerful (not oled version) but if the steam os version doesnt have a desktop mode ill be loosing out on to much emulations etc
I'll be buying the Lenovo legion go 2 , the windows version.. I'm getting the most powerful Lenovo legion go 2 they are selling. I just hope there will be enough for everyone. Thank you Lenovo.
@CraitMerc AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 24.12.1 is the only update I've done. It's been fantastic ever since, but I had to download it from the AMD website because they haven't given us an official Legion Go update since April/May 2024. It's Lenovo's fault. All my other Lenovo devices get an AMD update except the Lego.
@@CraitMercSide loading the mainline AMD drivers (780m drivers) It can help performance or compatibility in some games and makes it easier to use AMD eGPUs
This is a ridiculous statement. I use the Legion Go daily and it never feels heavy. Asking to basically cut the weight in HALF is nonsensical, as is comparing this to the Switch. The Switch is a child's toy, designed for children. The current generation of handheld gaming devices are not toys.
@@Jason_P EXACTLY. I still can't understand how people think a whole gaming computer running Windows, and huge battery, fans, two controllers, and a 8in screen is supposed to run for 10hrs and fit in our pockets or something. 😅
the intro comes of as a brag, CNET how the mighty have falen. The once legendary hosts are gone except a few, no live streams from CES no stage no marathon stream.
I wonder if Lenovo will ever update this trash or just leave it to head to the landfill like they do all their other devices. They should officially license some updates for all the poor people that buy their phones. 1.6 lbs is almost 2 ipads... that's pretty heavy
@@sophieedel6324 How is it locked down? As far as I know you can do almost anything you can do with a normal Linux machine with Steam OS in desktop mode.
@@dimap- SteamOS is custom Arch with custom package repositories, no one knows what Valve all stripped out, but the fact it doesn't even support a printer because they stripped CUPS means it has been heavily heavily stripped of functionality.

The next legion should have a pocket knife and should be called the legion blade
legion blade sounds like a badass name ngl

I have a Go as well and like it a lot. Honestly I kind of want one of these S's with SteamOS

kinda looking for a psp sized one. Are they up for it?
With that much power.
Take nvme's to.? and still have the usb's and maybe thunderbolt.
Pc performance with a 4.3 is insane. Get an android handheld instead

i am staying with my lcd steam deck - nothing impresive for me
Reminds me of the alienware UFO
Imagine, SteamOS Machines *EVERYWHERE!* 🔥🔥🔥
I love my Lego. Shouldn't have to keep side-loading!! We need regular AMD driver updates!! Better battery life, you can take my money!! ✅️
Question, what are you side loading? Are they not supporting the Lego enough?

@@BarelyAverageDude Thanks
This costs more than the ps5 pro with accessories
Awesome 😎
700g? It is still heavy! Switch is around 400g and becomes heavy after 30min of play.
Bro if you think the switch is heavy after 30 minutes, you need to start working out.

Pls be IPS
Autopass if this is oled
OLED = BURN IN
BURN = LOW RESALE VALUE
OLED =PWM
PWM = eyestrain and headache
Thank me later 😉
imo ips = low resale value,
OLED technology has come so far, that manufacturers have safeguards so OLED burn in is basically non existent.
Lol the oled you're talking about is oled in 2012, brother it's 2025 we have electric cars now, do you really think they still use the same oled lol
I still got my samsung s23 oled burnt in. Oled is oled. It's its characteristic, burn in is inevitable.@@theunknown7441
no one should get the Z2 go
it's worse than Z1 non extreme
If they play less intensive games and want a much better battery life.
the gpu is better than the z1, the cpu is only 4 cores though

You sound schizophrenic, of course they're going to say they saw it before? Why would they not disclose that they got to get a few minutes with it.
What?😐 Take your meds and go for a walk
@@CU-Later I've heard it said before but its the way he said it and the words used.

1.6 lbs is almost 2 ipads... that's pretty heavy
Lenovo has the worst driver support in all handheld so far. I have owned all.
No 80wh battery, Legion no go for me 🤷
2.5K - 3K display would have been nice.
Would have been really really bad !! 1080p/1200p is the best choice for every handheld
Good luck finding games that'll run that on a handheld lol
@@CraitMerc Why just games? Many would use it as a media device too. Watch 4K content.
@SoCalFreelance Eh, don't really hear people doing that too often with PC handhelds.
@@CraitMerc Everyone does with their phones and tablets but not with a handheld PC? That makes no sense.
müll , langsamer wie legion go 😂😂😂
SteamOS is basically for console peasants who want a locked down OS.
Linux is much better than windows though
@@dimap- SteamOS is as much "Linux" as ChromeOS or Android is, it's just a locked down OS.

@@sophieedel6324 But its a gaming focused OS why would anyone need to use a printer when on a gaming platform?
