Lenovo Legion Go - 8 Reasons Not To Buy it!

[@ambulance-kun5915]

The audio has recently been found out by the community how to fix 1. Go to start menu search 2. Type realtek and select the first one you see 3. Change the equalizer preset to vocal And that's it

[@TrueEasyTech]

Let me try it now. :)

[@TrueEasyTech]

wow! I must admit that sound is now more pleasing or usable but still very flat :) thanks for the tip

[@Chris-ih4hj]

That’s not a fix 😂

[@Longjumping-War2484]

It's a fix for people who don't know that out of the box It's set to powerful for some reason! Which of course is crap sounding! Some laptops are set up like that by default, which is why I know about it from previous experience with Realtek drivers!

[@DownUnder43]

​​@@TrueEasyTechthat should be fixed by bloody Lenovo not the users. But that ain't no fix anyway.

[@nathanwilliams4364]

You can make the speakers sound much better by adjusting the EQ in the realtek audio software. You can also remap the start/select buttons to be at the top in the Legionspace software. Lenovo has been quite active with the community since they launched the Go and continue to make improvements based on user feedback. I love my Legion Go, especially for the big screen size and the performance.

[@TrueEasyTech]

I tried few apps to improve the sound but they made it even worse for me. I had no idea about remapping and why do we need to remap the buttons when on Ally and Deck everything is working right outside the box?:) I am glad you enjoying your Legion Go and that is the most important part of owning one of these devices. Have a great day :)

[@ambulance-kun5915]

​@@TrueEasyTechno extra apps needed. 1. Go to start menu search 2. type realtek, open the first one 3. Change the equalizer preset to "vocal" And that's it

[@TrueEasyTech]

It sounds better, but still flat:) thank you for a great tip

[@lou2315_]

Thank you for saying the obvious. Some people are unwilling to do any modifications for a handheld pc. Even with the fan situation, you can't hear it when you're playing the game.

[@witebatman]

I got one last December. I have NO wiggle room in the joycons. The fact that they are removable means I don't have to carry a wireless mouse OR a controller. I use it more than my laptop or my phone. I'm watching this video on it. It has a learning curve, but one thay is well worth it if a person were willing to Google their problems before complaining

[@TrueEasyTech]

it seams that my Legion Go have some strange problems with joycons. I belive is it quality control issue

[@hater6346]

This device is 🐶💩alot of returns on my local best buy the employees told me customer’s complaint about loose controllers how tf they dont check for this issue beforehand is beyond ridiculous 😅

[@5scbasher17]

Or your dumb*ss is probably swinging it around by the controllers. ​@@TrueEasyTech

[@witebatman]

@@hater6346 Your username holds out. Can't say I believe your story. My controllers are perfectly fine, and if they weren't, it would be easy to replace just that part. Verses the ROG, where you have to do a whole teardown. Legion is more repairable was one of my main sticking points. Hearing you complain about a device you don't own is a great review though.

[@eggsauce4212]

1:49 HOW TO FIX SPEAKER QUALITY: go to settings, system, sound, all sound devices, then properties go down to audio enhancements and turn it off. Sounds 2x better also if you want it a little bit louder download a equalizer.

[@sirjermz]

Just returned the Ally and picked up the Go. Best decision. If the Go is too heavy for you...... I'd keep that to myself. Speakers are fixed with some tweaks.

[@gorillax48]

YOUR WRONG BRO, LOL!!

[@sirjermz]

@gorillax48 It's hard to be wrong when you speak for yourself. For myself, the ALLY sucked. I hated it. I returned it and got the Legion Go. I am loving it. Best decision I have ever made. It is perfect for me. If you like the Ally then great. Glad for you. That is why competition and choices are good.

[@DownUnder43]

​@@sirjermzthe device hardware is pretty much the same but the Ally has a edge on the display even with more battery capacity the go gives less gaming performance and playing time so not sure what you going on. This guy makes valid points right there.

[@sirjermz]

I've owned both. They are only similar on paper. The differences are night and day.

[@gorillax48]

That is amazing to hear that you returned your ROG, I will be purchasing Legion Go in a couple of weeks and look forward to seeing how good it is.

[@thomassaballa]

I just got my legion go 2 days ago ..if your thinking about buying 1 ..Just buy it ..its dope lol

[@TrueEasyTech]

glad you liked it)

[@Sam-gy8xs]

Hows the fan noise?

[@perfectgaming788]

Yep, better than the One X 😊

[@michaelromeo9255]

Number 1: Buy a case. The joycons will never move as the cases tighten the Legion Go. 3: The screen, use upscaling.

[@TrueEasyTech]

that's a good advice:) thank you

[@estyhugo]

What about number 2?

[@lukemontana9860]

[@MegaManX7]

I just ordered one after watching this. Love it

[@TrueEasyTech]

[@evp159]

You watched this....and then ordered 1? Lol he made it sound like crap lol. I love mine also

[@MegaManX7]

If you take a review too seriously from people who dedicate themselves in making reviews then you'll get all sorts of extra criticism. Better to try things on your own and make a judgement call. Glad I did because I love mine@@evp159

[@Xarviz]

The fan comparison was bullshit. Performance is allys 25W turbo. Custom full fan speed vs predefined fan and temp curve. I mean even you should know how wrong you did the comparison.

[@Dario.Madureira]

I went for the Steam Deck Oled! But you can't go wrong with either the Legion or Ally handhelds.

[@TrueEasyTech]

Congrats! Great Choice!

[@brandontovar2539]

I can hold my legion go for more than 3 hrs when plugged in lol and have had no issues with the joysticks

[@Russiangamerpro2021]

It’s not that heavy they said it’s probably 630 g or two 650 g somewhere between so it’s not that too heavy. Is there much bulky and a bit heavier a little bit because of the bulkiness? Make your comfortable hands not as comfortable I have the same problem because the joystick and the controllers are just controller is too big on my hand. I need something more comfortable like the ROG ally X

[@kenwong7083]

Thanks for the honesty. Most of your dislike does effect me. At least my SD card does not go into flames.

[@TrueEasyTech]

SD card on Ally is a terrible issue and I had to increase my SSD :)

[@robertdaone]

I have one and love it, no complaints whatsoever. Just do all the driver and bios updates and make some setting changes like you would on a PC and you're set!

[@TrueEasyTech]

Thank you for your advice! :)

[@christophercombs4926]

I see why you only have 184 subscribers - EVERYTHING you stated is biased and or WRONG

[@2Guys1ControllerShow]

In comparison to every digital device that has speakers since like 2003, the Lenovo Legion go is the worst sounding audio I've ever experienced in my life.

[@JamilmariamX]

What does it sound like

[@Pavel-gn5yp]

1) Screen - you can use Scale 2) TDP - you can use Handle Companion 3) FPS Mode - are you joking?

[@TrueEasyTech]

Handheld companion*

[@2Guys1ControllerShow]

How much can you lift?

[@Id_MAGE]

Nice question

[@mehranmokhtarzadeh2770]

Hi .. is legion go still have loud fan after recent updates ?

[@TrueEasyTech]

yes, it does unfortunately due to one cooling fan.

[@smothyism]

It depends on the user. For me the ally has a high pitch and I don't like it. So I have to decide bettween the go and steam deck.

[@urbanpatriottactical8717]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 idk about the LeGo you have but mines perfect and performs as such. Im also a man that doesnt complain so maybe theres the difference. BUY THE LEGO!! ANYINE WILL LOVE IT.

​@@witebatmanme too. For me a lot of bullsheet in this video. Not everything but ....

[@ChariotManGaming85]

You got to be kidding me man. I had the Steam Deck, The Rog Ally and now the Legion Go. The Legion Go is better. The only weakness is the Speakers that's it. Rog Ally is great but in a long run the Legion Go is better.

[@MiggateNoGodku]

Both the ally and the go are literally the same lmao, except for the screen size and detachable controllers

[@ChariotManGaming85]

@@MiggateNoGodku Yes I know. And I will be taking about this myself.

[@SuperHyphyOne]

It's like this KZbin bought a LeGo just for the sake of regurgitating was what said during the first two week of launch with little or no experience with the device.

[@heyitsrally5178]

So gaming laptops are still better than the handhelds that are coming out?

[@TrueEasyTech]

Much better and also much more expensive:)

[@evp159]

Depends.

[@artskieee052]

It depends on the purpose.

[@ELVENEVN]

@@erikko6523 thanks!!

[@ELVENEVN]

Rog ally it is

[@damiengreen8200]

I agree the speakers are a disappointment, but the rest of the criticisms are quite harsh. One thing I don't like about the screen is the fact that it is portrait native - this appears to cause issue with older DOS games and correct aspect ratios. I have the SD and Ally as well (both are excellent in my opinion), and I have to admit this Legion Go is my most used device.

[@TrueEasyTech]

I also have SD, Ally and Go. Go is also my least used device :)

[@SOPHISTICATED_VIBES]

The lack of VRR is immediately noticeable no matter what anybody tells you, also the sound is trash even after equalizing because the speakers themselves are cheap, loud fans, UI needs tons of work…! Really tried to like it though. ROG ALLY ALL DAY.

[@SOPHISTICATED_VIBES]

If you’re a true gamer the SD card is useless anyway plus it’s easily forgotten by a simple SSD upgrade, you getting no Ally for 300$ not even the base model, instead of bad mouthing it do your homework and go check the thing in person you’ll change your mind, it’s a beast !

[@Ashraf0182]

I'm confused about whether I should buy an Asus ROG Ally or a Lenovo Legion Go, or maybe consider Chinese brands like OneXplayer and AyaNeo. Since the Asus ROG Ally is equipped with analog sticks, should this be a concern?

[@TrueEasyTech]

I prefer Rog Ally more due to the size, speakers, fast charge and joysticks:) battery life is not a problem since I can play maximum 1 hour per day if I am lucky

[@joshpacker6635]

I owned both. Ally runs much more smoother and the VRR legit makes it better. I returned my Legion. Still rocking the Ally.

[@LinksRoyal]

@@TrueEasyTechi think legion go also has fast charge. mine charge up pretty fast

[@peterskroblus7030]

He says the fans are loud, so his solution is to partially cover the fans with tape. Are you serious?? Lower the fan sound by burning the machine up? How much can we really trust what this guy says?? Just a word of advice…you need to be at least somewhat educated on a product before you review it.

[@TrueEasyTech]

To be honest I will agree that I was much stupider when I made this video :) in my defence, my temps are the same but there is no more whistle noise from the fan due to the tape at the back. Lenovo made a huge progress so far with Legion Go and it is no longer a bad device in my opinion:)

[@Aim.09]

Lenovo legion go with lossless scaling is the best

[@rodneyjones2808]

I didn't find any of these reasons as a problem.
