The Lenovo Legion Go is simultaneously awesome and frustrating. I went hands-on with the recently released Windows 11 handheld a few months ago and thought it had the potential to beat the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally. However, I also wrote about how Lenovo’s machine needed one specific thing to succeed. Now that I’ve had more time with the Legion Go, I have a better sense of what the machine can do — and what it can’t.
I’m currently testing the Legion Go for my review. That’s coming soon, but I wanted to share some initial thoughts on the new gaming handheld. Right now, it doesn’t seem like the Legion Go is a better option than the mighty Steam Deck, though there’s still plenty to like about it. For some, the Legion Go could very well be the best gaming handheld ever.
