@@Puntonghua mostly, these people are just sour graping because the Legion Go is far more capable than whatever gaming handheld device they own. So they bash either the OS or the battery. Clearly these bashers only see the LeGo as a toy, while others see the Legion Go as a tool. I've literally replaced my iPad and my gaming laptop with the Legion Go, whenever I travel. It is that versatile even if compared to the brand new Ally X, because the Legion Go is the only handheld PC that can transform into a tablet that can last upto 7 hours on a single charge.

If you swipe up from the bottom and pull up the navigation bar, click on the magnifying lens to search the system for Realtek Audio app. Then in the app you can enable Omni surround sound and a list of preset audio options pull up as well as an equalizer to fine tune the presents. Not sure why it's not factory enabled, but it definitely helps with the audio

Great video. I replaced my iPad pro with the Legion Go, because this is so much better in many ways, especially that Legion Go has a full Windows 11 desktop OS. Unless Apple allows MacOS on their iPads, then Legion go is the better option, and its pointless having an iPad considering that the Legion Go is also cheaper, with better specs and fully compatible with almost all accessories available for a PC (including an eGPU).

@@IntentionalTech cant wait. This will be an interesting take on the Legion Go and would be one of a kind.

I play mainly MMO’s on my main PC so I have been lookign at somethign to use at work and more portable than a gaming laptop (been there done that and never again) SO we have the Handhelds now and the GO is right up my ally (wish they had a 32gb version..16gb with share vram just dosent cut it). I checked the Ally/X and the 7” was too small and for me it felt too small in my hand. Checked the GO and just knew it was for me.

This seems like a great option if you want to get a gaming pc but cant really afford it (that what im getting,its worse for me as corrosion is an issue here and dehumidifiers are pricey,and why is the operating system so expensive?!?!?!). I have looked at a laptop in the same price range,and it seems to not run games at the same fps. So this seems better because its more portable,is even more corrosion resistant,i KNOW it will run my games very good,and i can still use my regular setup with it

Depends on the game. The best thing to do is look on Reddit or the Steam store to try and figure out how well the games you're interested in run on handheld systems. Some games are just amazing in a handheld format. Ete is an example of a game that is really badly optimised for handhelds - I'm hoping they improve that over time.
