Loving My Lenovo Legion Go - A True Portable Power

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my Lenovo Legion Go! Let’s dive into what makes this device stand out.
Build and Design: The screen is stunning, offering vivid colors and sharp details that make gaming a pleasure. The detachable controllers might seem like a gimmick to some, but I find them incredibly useful, especially in FPS mode where I can play in a laptop-like setup without the bulk of a keyboard. To enhance comfort during extended gaming sessions, I added third-party Comfort Grips around the controllers. These grips have made a noticeable difference, providing better ergonomics and support.
Accessory Wishlist: More first-party accessories would be a great addition. Specifically, a keyboard that fits between the two Strike controllers would enhance the gaming experience, combining traditional typing with intuitive gaming controls. Additionally, a USB-C charging port on the keyboard to simultaneously charge the controllers would be a major plus.
Performance: The AMD Z1 Extreme APU is a powerhouse, handling everything I throw at it with ease. However, it’s important to note the battery life doesn’t compare to less powerful devices like the Steam Deck—this is the trade-off for its robust performance.
Software and Updates: Running Windows 11 on 64-bit architecture allows for excellent game compatibility, particularly with AAA titles. A huge fan on the top does a decent job of keeping the device cool. Make sure to update your drivers and software (there are helpful YouTube tutorials for setup). I highly recommend enabling integer scaling in the AMD Adrenaline software to balance game performance and visual quality, especially at 800p.
Future Hopes: I hope Lenovo will push for AMD to support vertical display orientation in their AFMF (frame generation software), as there’s currently no reason it shouldn’t work on this device. Integration with AMD’s software would allow for better full-screen gaming performance for specific games.
Support and Extras: Updates have been slow, presumably as Lenovo collaborates closely with AMD to enhance software compatibility, particularly for the AFMF feature. Despite this, the device has been an excellent purchase—did I mention it even comes with a case?
In conclusion, the Lenovo Legion Go is a fantastic device for anyone seeking powerful gaming performance on the go. While battery life is a compromise, the overall functionality and future potential make it well worth the investment.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used other handhelds before and I prefer this one for the big screen and the Z1 extreme. If the legion go 2 will have an OLED screen it will be my next purchase.
