[The Verge] Legion Go 2 official: Lenovo’s new flagship handheld costs $1,099 — and up

1080g for a handheld device is insanity even if it has an 8.8" screen. People have complained that the Switch2 (7.9") at 535g is too heavy. This weighs just over 2X the Switch2. As for competitors, the Steam Deck OLED (7.4") is 630g, and the Asus ROG Ally X (7") is 680g. Doubly idiotic is that they'

Why the 7 inch screen?

I had the original Legion Go, pre order day one. I found it too heavy and dimensions too big for a handheld, the weight and bulk were due to the screen size choice. In my opinion the Lenovo Go OG, was a tablet trying to be a handheld. It even had a portrait orientation tablet screen masquerading as

Odin 3 killed my need for a Steam Deck

I started on the handheld path in a way and time similar to you and probably many or most people/parents here. I got, used and sold OG Steam Deck, OG Ally, OG Legion Go and several phones and tablets from 7 to 13" shapes and sizes and brands. My circumstances didn't change that much in this time, bu

Legion Go or Steam Deck OLED?

Depends what you’re looking to get out of a handheld. Steam Deck is a much simpler experience and much more of a true “handheld”. It runs indies super well with no tinkering. Battery life is great. However its specs are aging and there’s a learning curve when it comes to leveraging SteamOS for mods

Xbox’s new handheld is a surprisingly comfortable way to play Gears

A lot of people here don't read beyond the headline, and then you have those who are either against Polygon for ideological reasons or who never actually read the site and judge it based on others' opinions. The Polygon writer's impression that the Xbox Ally X was heavy wasn't just in her head, but

Help me decide between Switch 2 and Steam Deck OLED.

Personally Id suggest the Switch 2.. I was in a similar position and opted for a Lenovo Legion Go , (great handheld, slightly more powerful than the streamdeck and at the time, the price (£300 new) was an absolute steal. Initially got it for indie games, retro emulation and cloud streaming my Xbox l

A used 2TB Lenovo legion go Z1 extreme, Nintendo Switch 2 or OLED steam deck 1TB new?

By the time I was looking to buy a handheld PC, the Ally a Legion Go had been released… and I chose a Steam Deck OLED. I have a PS5 (and a NVIDIA Shield) and I got an amazing deal on a Switch Lite about the same time. What was most important to me was I wanted to stop paying subscriptions just to pl

Switched from Claw A8 to Rog Xbox Ally X

Same, I am over 40 and the 7 inches is more than fine. Bigger screen is nice but if it makes my handheld bigger, I don't want it. I want a handheld, not a huge heavy expensive tablet (lenovo legion go 2)
