lenovo software support doesn't really matter on the linux side though, youll get gpu drivers through mesa and valve probably won't drop steamos support for the legion go s anytime soon, and if they do the community will surely take over like they did with Bazzite

The GoPocalypse is officially upon us. As someone who owns both a Legion Go S and a Legion Go 2 I’m really not sure how to feel about all this. On the one hand it feels like I invested in a stock that went up, on the other hand I’m more than a little concerned about what it might mean in general.

Feel like the real flex at this point was the Legion Go S Black Friday deal

As a person who has both, yep, legion go s is defo better choice. Steam deck is great, but bigger screen and more power - better fps/graphics and less eye strain for longer game sessions

The Steam Machine has a far more powerful GPU in terms of CUs. It'll also have way higher clocks since it's not a handheld device. It also has 8GB of dedicated crazy high bandwidth VRAM that the Legion Go S's shared DDR5 pool could never compete with. The Steam Machine by a large margin.

Thats on a Legion Go S Z1E 32GB ram model. it runs insanely well on that, can do 120hz and keeps steady around like 80fps. Can probably squeeze out more fps if I drop the graphics down but it ran so well on the default settings I just left it lol

That rumor actually got walked back. Lenovo US officially confirmed to PCWorld that they're supporting the original Legion Go with driver and BIOS updates through October 2029, and said the Korean support message that started the panic was miscommunicated or mistranslated. The real knock is that the

The thing is that for people using Linux in general for gaming could end up getting better performance even though they would have an 8GB GPU which if you were to remember the Steam Machine would have 8GB only for the video memory so then games could possibly run a lot smoother and also the fact for

I would recommend a Legion Go S Z1E 32GB if you can find one for a good price.

I sidegraded to the Legion Go S SteamOS version and I've sworn to never buy anything else but a Steam Deck again. While on paper it seems great, more power, better screen, steamOS, more ram, more everything. It also has it's downsides you realize when you actually use it daily. It's bulky and heavy
