Windows FSE cannot be released if Lenovo don’t do its part

Lenovo never do anything fast , GPU Drivers for legion go 1 were a joke. There was 1 update in January 2025 and then the next one didn't come until August 2025 . In the meantime nobody could play doom dark ages unless you loaded the more recent Asus rog GPU driver onto the legion which I and many ot

Bestbuy is tripping

What I dont understand is how come ally x or msi claw not going up in price but lenovo handhelds is. Is there anything special about the legion handhelds? I have a msi claw 8 ai and it can run everything on par and sometimes better than legion go 2 for almost half the price.

SteamOS outperforms Windows in nearly all Legion Go S performance tests, yet Lenovo appears to be ignoring the existence of the SteamOS version

You can’t even find a mention of the SteamOS version of the Lenovo Legion Go S on Lenovo’s website. I am so NOT kidding. It’s right there https://www.lenovo.com/us/en/p/handheld/legion-go-s-powered-by-steamos/83n6000gus Shows up in search for me but out of stock, it’s also sold in local stores and h

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

Im tempted to buy legion go 2. Can anyone confirm if they worked out the driver support issues from legion go 1?

Happy to give you kudos if you can show us all how to install the latest drivers direct from AMD onto either legion go. However you can't can you. I suspect you are on about the drivers direct from Lenovo which everyone knows how to install. There isn't a single video or post showing how to do this

Which would you get at these prices?

I’d save a bit more and look at the Xbox Ally X. The Go S is great, but only when it was on sale for $600. The screen is a nice size and the performance isn’t too far behind (still fine). But the battery life is terrible. The Legion Go has a nice screen but it’s too high of a resolution for the APU

What is the longevity of the Z2Go in terms of support?

Lenovo barely support any of its current handhelds with poor legion space software, badly implemented gyro since legion go 1 launch and driver updates up to half a year apart . I actually love the device (legion go 1) but really dislike Lenovo as a company because of how poorly they have supported t

Legion Go 2 Drivers - A Blast From the Past

The no in Lenovo stands for no timely updates for their handhelds, including the $2000 brick called legion go 2. Hope the steam OS official roll out in June isn't delayed. At least valve will be more timely with updates instead of depending on Lenovo for a miracle.

Rog ally for a Legion Go?

I’ve had the original Legion Go, Ally Z1E and now Ally X. Legion Go’s screen is pretty great, no doubt about it. Speakers are terrible compared to Ally. Battery is a little worse than Z1E Ally and way worse than X. Detachable controllers on Go are kinda neat, so is the built in stand. The Go is much

Legion Go 1 or ROG Ally X?

I would chose ally x as original legion go is famous for very poor cooling system. You will need to regularly open it and clean the fan, it gathers dust. Friends of mine who have it, clean it every month as standard maintenance. Lenovo fixed fixed it in go s version. Look for picks on legion subredd
