Two amazing deals - which one do I keep?

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

Made a pitstop after a work pickup to bless a new game.

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

Lenovo Legion Go with Z1 Extreme now costs $999 after launching at $699 two years ago

Quite by accident (I didn’t want to buy it and was just looking for a solution to stream from my PC, and I was leaning more toward Gamesir for my tablet) but I saw the Legion Go S in the base configuration for $568, and given the upward trend in prices, I thought it would be a good deal. After that,

How much more of a performance boost do you get if you install SteamOs on your Legion Go 2 ? I want to switch from Windows but I’m not to computer savvy so not sure if it’s even worth it

It's not just the performance increase, but the qol that makes a big difference. Especially if you're not computer savvy. I am computer savvy and went for a Legion Go S with SteamOS because I didn't want to deal with the Windows headaches, I just want to play games on something that works. SteamOS i

If your Steam Deck Broke, Would You Buy Another One or a Different Handheld?

I, too, side graded to a Legion Go S SteamOS. For me, it is the Steam Deck 2. The same thing, but better in every way. The bigger, higher resolution screen makes a huge difference to me, as does the much better performance. It can run everything at 1080p, so I regularly plug it into the TV. When I d

To those with both of these, which one do you prefer, personally?

I'm actually in a similar situation rn. I scored a good deal on the XAX, but I miss Steam OS and the 16:10 screen ratio of my Deck. The XAX screen looks small even against my SD LCD. I have to squint often to see stuff clearly on screen. I know I could install Bazzite on it but it wouldn't fix the h

I finally have one!

I've owned so many handhelds, from the Steam Deck to the Lenovo Legion Go S. But this device has impressed me with its performance and ergonomics.🤩

What are your opinons on the Flagship Handheld PC market

Because it's a hobby, and most hobbies aren't about making financial sense. You don't tell a guy who installed thousands of dollars worth of parts on his Porsche that he could've just bought a Honda Civic and still gotten to work just fine. People still buy an expensive camera when they have an iPho

Should I sell for Xbox Rog Ally?

I had the XAX and returned it due to windows issues and having to deal with them. Updates and what not, not working. So I bought the Steam Legion Go S Z1 extreme and I like it a lot more. Yes the XAX was comfy too hold but it is still bulky. It's pretty thick. I have larger hands and really like the
