We need another video!!! Something that helps us navigate and use the interface more efficiently and pleasantly lol Compared to the steam deck, it is very challenging and annoying to navigate the interface with random button presses and The game screen will pop into very small picture mode that is difficult switchback to full picture. It's full of small challenges that are frustrating and the experience is far frome streamline like the deck. I also find the games are playing a lot smoother on steam deck. It feels more like a console experience and the legion Go feels like a slow computer. I really want this thing to work out. But it's gotta be comfortable and pleasant to use like the steam deck. Or it's just not worth anything
You know the analog stick tops come off? Makes it more comfortable in verticle mouse mode. You can also dual boot Windows 11 and SteamOS btw. Nobody talks about these things when reviewing the product.
@@UFDTechI downloaded this, but after installing it told me I already had this version of BIOS and still have 3,4, and 8 GB settings. Did it work for you?
Really excited to see many good options for handheld computing! Sick and tired of not being able to game even with the Asus G14 on planes because their AC outlets are not able to output enough wattage for the charger! Let's see if the Legion Go can fill that gap in gaming time!!!
@@movedbiscuit1332 I don't own any of these pseudo pc handhelds. I have is a switch. Im holding off on buying until a new one comes out from the major brands or even xbox themselves. Microsoft losing $$$
it could be such a great overall gaming setup for those who willing to exercise neck strength with VR capabilities. Its already have controllers with gyro and enough high res screen
I would be interested to see you do a Legion Go vs ROG Ally vs Steam Deck comparison. It's a lot of work but I know you like handhelds and would like to know you're thoughts on it.
Its Quiet - 10 watts Balanced - 15 watts and Perf 20 watts. I use msi afterburner with hwinfo to see wattage while testing. The custom tdp slider is also pretty broken
Lenovo has a beta bios update out now that gives you the option for 6gb of vram. I updated mine to that last night, and it definitely helped Forza Motorsport run smoother.
@Peter-iw6bl yeah in the bios. Reboot the lenovo and as its rebooting hold down the volume up button then select the umi buffer option to change the vram. I suggest doing the beta bios update first though so you have access to the 6gb option. Theres a video on UA-cam that explains how to do the beta bios update.
Coming from Consol gaming to this being my first handheld PC-based gaming device. You mentioned the Xbox cloud-based app running through Lenovo legion space having all kinds of issues. Can I simply run the Xbox app by itself straight from the windows desktop?
Great video. Was concerned about the legion but if I just set those few settings to get the best fps then I think it’ll have better performance than the rog ally from other vids I’ve seen.
so RSR also only works when using a lower resolution right? also how does it work with legion space lowering the resolution, will it scale that resolution down, or is that just a setting for just the screen being made smaller.
I'm curious if Lenovo will eventually ship a variant with more memory, I'm also curious who is going to mod the device for more memory first. Implementations like this is why I kinda wish m.2's F key caught on, the reserved key or a future memory interface, and why I wish the CAMM connector would come soon but also revised to have a better layout to minimize the connector; dual-sided is the way to go, and side 1 can easily be tucked under the module onto the mother PCB itself. Though we'll probably have to wait for a v2 in a year or two for this. I like the idea of the right controller, but I don't like the implementation, it should be a cohesive controller no matter which mode, not a 'turn the controller 90° and lose most of the functionality' solution. Imagine if the mouse sensor was just on the bottom with no change in grip, where all of the controller functionality was still available, all of the M buttons could also be redistributed into Y buttons where you could instead have three Y buttons per side; if you don't like the idea of six back buttons, the concept of what Razer (and other third parties, Flydigi has done it before, not sure who else has) does with extra shoulder buttons is a nice idea, having buttons on the inside of the shoulders, I just wish someone would find a more proper implementation of them to where they're lateral buttons rather than depressing into the body of the device. it just feels like someone at Lenovo wanted a mouse, so they got the hardware team to slap something together, and that solution becomes a controller OR mouse in one body solution rather than controller AND mouse. And I get it, the molding and aesthetics of the device don't really allow for an AND solution, but I wish they just put a bit more effort into doing it this way so that there wasn't any compromise; this kind of solution could also lead to symmetric controllers which also means a left handed mouse option, or dual mice rather than dual stick and just relegate the sticks to some tertiary function. Again, hopefully a v2 implements this.
Hi Brett, since you were living in South Africa for a while, I would please like to ask if you know, if the Legion GO will be shipping to South Africa? Lenovo South Africa doesn't have a proper "Ticket Submission system", especially not for products listed on their website. I am considering to get a Legion GO instead of an Asus ROG Ally, since it seems like the overall better device, except for the Software issues that still need to be ironed out.
TB5 and I would be sold. then you can have nice gaming on the road, or where even and come home to dock into egpu. I know it might be a little iffy with AMD and TB5 but will have to wait and see. I coudl see these with ThunderBolt 5 becomming more mainstream hopefully end of next year
I'm planning on finding out how a TB3 dock does, I'm expecting it to be pretty usable, but hard to know without trying! There's very little I can see online testing this out specifically on the Go.
I'd love one of these but I still think the next best handheld device is still coming and I don't want to rush in and get buyers remorse. The rog ally was the one I've been most interested in but so many cool looking ones keep coming out so I'll wait a bit and see how things go. Loving the large amount of content from UFD recently
Wait until the next generation chips at least. We are so close to perfect handhelds but just not close enough right at this moment. OLED needs to come standard too and with all this competition now, integrated graphics should progress a hell of a lot more.
I mean if you are able to purchase a handheld now (like it's within financial means) then there won't really be buyers remorse. Just resale the handheld you do purchase on some marketplace and the depreciated value for all intents and purposes would match the entertainment use you got out of it. I personally don't think buyers remorse truly exists for a product that has a second hand market. Plus honestly at $800 max (less on sale and for other versions) it's not that heavy of a bullet to bite. Pc gaming gets above 1000 QUICK.
I’m new to hand helds and computers. How do I download games overnight without it shutting off? Should I be downloading games overnight? What are the best settings? I really just want it to be like PlayStations rest mode
Whatever you do don't order this product directly from Lenovo they're shipping restrictions are so ridiculous you're never going to receive the package unless you're retired or get lucky.
@@alper8621 yep tried talking to UPS and they said fuck you talk to Lenovo and Lenovo said fuck you talk to UPS. So day 4 of trying to receive the package crossing my fingers.
I’ve got to be honest from the start of this video. It sounded like a hate fest. Rather than a review. You could tell from the first 30 seconds you didn’t like the thing.
It seems cool but its just to experience for what it is i prefer gaming on my 4k Oled, i tried the steam deck but the screen was to small for me to enjoy it much. The legion go has a big screen but it just doesn't do enough for me to drop that amount of money on it. In a few gens of this tech maybe it will perform well enough to be worth it
I'm curious about the battery life compared to the Steam Deck and other handhelds. I have an Aokzoe A1 Pro and it has OK battery life. At 1280x800, I find that the battery lasts about 30% longer than the Steam Deck. Although the battery is a bit more than 50% bigger than the Deck.
@j_dun4830 That's cap! I'll give you the SD card reader on the Ally is trash but, few reviewers are saying the GO USB are not reading portable drives. And, software is trash right now. Not having VRR on a low end pc is huge and, sound quality is amazing on the Ally also Ally has higher screen dpi. I would of loved to buy the GO but, right now it's not worth it.
I have an lcd SD which I love because I don’t know much about computers and settings. Steam os has just been very easy for me even tho some games do require some setting changes to run more smoothly but what I want is to be able to also play my Xbox while the fam occupies the tv most of the time. I do have xbplay which I can play my Xbox but it’s a terrible experience and I’d like something that I can do all. Play steam games, Xbox, PlayStation etc. and what is the main attraction for me on this legion is the big screen. I was debating getting the oled SD but am very torn if I want to venture into gaming laptop, legion go or just get the oled steamdeck. For 700-800 bucks it’s hard to pick the right device. With the legion, is it really a lot of adjusting and tinkering?
I'm on the same page on this can't figure it out myself cause I have the steam oled on my cart already but I go back in forth when I see different reviews it gets kind of frustrating. :/
@@mistersancho755 I got the legion go and I love it. It’s far better than the steam deck. I sold my steamdeck since I got the go because I don’t use it now.
I got mine today, and when I went to the cloud gaming section of the legion software it launched the xbox app, so I luckily didn't have to deal with that weird double input issue. One thing I immediately ran into was the lack of an xbox or similar button. Will have to find out how to bind that somewhere
@@rajvir1989 so far I'm very happy with it. it's a bit heavy, but the kickstand is amazing, so I play a fair bit with the controllers detached. Screen is amazing, but since I got it I've mostly been running it at 1280x800@60hz to conserve battery. Performance is great, fan is very rarely noticeable. overall it's been very pleasant to use. That said, the biggest issue with it is easily that it runs windows. I boot straight into big picture mode in steam on it now which helps, but it's still a bit of a pain using the little touch pad or the touch screen and onscreen keyboard to do system stuff
Before release i heard it features battery bypass so when plugged in it runs off of ac preserving the battery but asking around i cant find this answer i want to get one and my intended use is long game sessions for travel roadtrips and visiting inlaws i want make sure i dont ruin the battery by keeping it plugged in all the time.
Hey great video. Just changed the UMA Frame buffer size and ul be pleased to know they do now have both a 6gb option and an auto. I just put mines to auto. Gonna give that a whirl.
There's times I'm doubting my input on the d-pad forgetting that my finger is pressing in directions for input response realizing the dpad will seem to stop taking any response to my held in direction. I don't know if it's in my mind or if this an known issue
My opinion is not gonna be super popular here but. I just feel the handheld consoles are at a start, kinda just the beginning of the potential. I think that in the upcoming future, we can expect a few new devices that will not force us to compromise. So far Steamdeck, Rog ally and Legion GO being many compromises. So today, I just went with the cheapest option - Steamdeck - as an introduction the the handhelds (maybe it is not even for me) and when this perfect device comes (I think it will bw pretty soon), that is when I switch.
I don’t think that is an unpopular opinion. I think that is fact. I cant imagine many people would argue with that take. Of course any of these devices are compromises. I can get laptop for the same price as the Legion go that would shit on it in every way.
@@hokayson6518 Yes, but what scenario do you really need a portable? I just returned my legion go and got a laptop. For $150 more I got an RTX-4060 13700HX and 16GB RAM. Of course everyone’s use case is different, for me I never really leave the house with it so the laptop is fine for me. The legion go is an amazing device I was very impressed with it, If you need the most portable thing you can get it is the way to go.
My understanding is that RSR can be left always on and only activates if you lower the display resolution to anything below native (so RSR is always off at native resolution and only activates to upscale a lower resolution to look closer to native but with better performance). If a specific game has FSR, just use that and leave it at native resolution, which should mean RSR automatically stays off / FSR supercedes it. This was my experience on the Steam Deck and Ally. I'm not entirely sure what happens if you turn on FSR AND lower the display resolution, but in a game that has FSR, I usually would recommend just dropping all the way to ultra performance mode if needed over messing with the display resolution at all, since it will provide a better picture and better performance in most cases. TLDR: if the game has FSR, use that and leave the resolution at native. If it doesn't but you still need more performance, lower the resolution and RSR will activate automatically if turned on in Legion Space or the AMD software.
The other day the toggles on my Lenovo legion go flashed red (instead of green) and I remember I was holding it awkwardly and it may have been because of me accidentally holding tje volume and power button(I don’t know) help?!?!😊
I'm hesitating between Windows, Linux or Android device. I would like mainly playing emulated games until Nintendo Switch. There is no device till now that can run the latest zelda totk at 60fps. I'll wait til Snap dragen gen 8 3rd generation will come out and will make my decision. Any advises are welcome
i was supprised myself with no bloatware apps, lol. micro gotten worse. you can disable secure boot by going to bios. what about linux? can you do a tutorial on it?
Watching this vid on my steam deck waiting happily on steam deck 2 even if it takes 2-3years I dont care. but if Steam makes an official steamOS on different device I might get the legion Go.
Step 2: Take it or send it to a repair shop to give it a 32GB RAM upgrade like some have done to the steam deck. 32GB of RAM would allow you to keep it at 8GB all of the time 🤷
@@marchufnagel9068 indeed they are different things. I'm talking about RAM. People have desoldered the RAM modules in the steam deck and replaced them with larger capacity modules. Replacing a M.2 SSD is ez stuff. Replacing BGA memory requires skill (that I don't have, but would love to do some day)
Depends on what you’re looking for. If you want something even more portable and smaller than a laptop and you use it for gaming a lot then this is good.

My understanding is that RSR can be left always on and only activates if you lower the display resolution to anything below native (so RSR is always off at native resolution and only activates to upscale a lower resolution to look closer to native but with better performance). If a specific game has FSR, just use that and leave it at native resolution, which should mean RSR automatically stays off / FSR supercedes it. This was my experience on the Steam Deck and Ally.
I'm not entirely sure what happens if you turn on FSR AND lower the display resolution, but in a game that has FSR, I usually would recommend just dropping all the way to ultra performance mode if needed over messing with the display resolution at all, since it will provide a better picture and better performance in most cases.
TLDR: if the game has FSR, use that and leave the resolution at native. If it doesn't but you still need more performance, lower the resolution and RSR will activate automatically if turned on in Legion Space or the AMD software.
So do you think it's better than the Rog Ally?
The other day the toggles on my Lenovo legion go flashed red (instead of green) and I remember I was holding it awkwardly and it may have been because of me accidentally holding tje volume and power button(I don’t know) help?!?!😊
Tomorow come in to me my legion go😅
how about trying to run the following, hotshot racing, super lucky tales, ori games and sonic transformed racing, then tell me what you think
does the steam app work well with the controlls?
how do you put emulation on and where to get games pls ?
I'm hesitating between Windows, Linux or Android device. I would like mainly playing emulated games until Nintendo Switch. There is no device till now that can run the latest zelda totk at 60fps. I'll wait til Snap dragen gen 8 3rd generation will come out and will make my decision. Any advises are welcome
Considering custom mode is currently bugged. It should improve even more once its fixed.
Can you transfer games from your PC to legion go?
Hi can you test Sonic Frontiers Steam? I have my Lenovo Legion Go, all my games work except Sonic Frontiers any advice?
The 3D screen saver, where did you get that from, its dope
It’s good they let use remap to the face buttons but to not allow us to remap to m/kb buttons is a huge oversight that should be addressed
The infamous LEG box lol
Do you think No-VRR is a deal breaker?
nah
How do you remap the buttons?
What happened to the t's in button?
RSR turns itself off as soon as I exit that menu. Any advice?
The joystick controls are horribly delayed/ non existing until you move it to a certain point.
Bought the Legion Go. Surprised there wasn't an option to buy the PC with 32GB Ram.
Im stuck trying to figure out how to get the controller to be recognized in non-steam/xbox games
Make sure steam is closed, and the lenovo legion Go settings is closed also.
I thought it was already set up for gaming. Because its sold and advertised as a GAMING HANDHELD
Am going to get it I already have a steam but I need this
Okay, but how do I pull up the keyboard?
Do you need to have a PC to play on the Lenovo Legion go ?
No it's full on pc, it's not ps portal
A new LEG ION.
Can you review a lenovo glasses?
I will if/when I get my hands on them.
Can i run games from epic store and steam store on this device?
Yes
The legion go is hideous 😂 but mine will arrive this Thursday 😅
i was supprised myself with no bloatware apps, lol. micro gotten worse. you can disable secure boot by going to bios. what about linux? can you do a tutorial on it?
Watching this vid on my steam deck
waiting happily on steam deck 2 even if it takes 2-3years I dont care. but if Steam makes an official steamOS on different device I might get the legion Go.
I have issues when going on xbox app I downloaded a game and it gives a error message
If i get something like this for Christmas, im immediately booting it from my revios 10 usb, i hate bloatware.
Can i put a egpu on it??? Plz answer
yeah if you get a dock
Mhm I clicked "Start Fresh" and it still downloaded a back-up from several years ago...
battery life?
This is the one... although steam deck has the absolute best control configuration and two track pads
this is global version or official? or wait lenovo legion go 2?
Hey guys I’m stuck on the sign in for Microsoft I can’t seem to make a digital keyboard appear to sign in someone plz help!
Should be an icon that let's you select an on screen keyboard
Step 2: Take it or send it to a repair shop to give it a 32GB RAM upgrade like some have done to the steam deck. 32GB of RAM would allow you to keep it at 8GB all of the time 🤷
I'm willing to bet it's only a matter of time before someone releases a modded BIOS to allow that.
umm i believe that the system memory and storage memory are separate.
@@marchufnagel9068 indeed they are different things. I'm talking about RAM. People have desoldered the RAM modules in the steam deck and replaced them with larger capacity modules. Replacing a M.2 SSD is ez stuff. Replacing BGA memory requires skill (that I don't have, but would love to do some day)
@@travisholt92 That would take some skill to up the system memory.
@@marchufnagel9068 There are board-level repair shops that can handle that mod, as mentioned.
oh thankgod i was about to buy a ps5 because ps4 cant run cyberpunk 2077 very well and then i found this and its much cheaper and more versatile

So is it only streaming the games only or can I download the game and play it anywhere I want
How to setup for gaming: Wait until Lenovo fixes Legion Space. End of Video.
Can you tell us if this machine could replace a laptop?
Depends on what you’re looking for. If you want something even more portable and smaller than a laptop and you use it for gaming a lot then this is good.
It certainly can but a lappy is much more convienient
