Is the Legion Go worth it? I certainly think so, it's not an overall better device than the Steam Deck, but it does have it's stengths. But are those reasons enough to pick it over the Deck?

    Hello everyone! 🙂 I've made a few mistakes in my video (thanks for pointing that out!) and I just wanted to make sure that they are visible somewhere: 1. The controllers CAN be turned on when disconnected, just hold the Legion/Settings Overlay button for a few seconds 3. You CAN use them in 2-Player mode 2. In order for the integer scaling to work, you have to set the system resolution to 800p, not 1600p Thank you!

    You get a like for the "Do I steam or do I Go"

    I got a Legion Go for $500 used. I replaced my main computer with it. It works for me for now.
  • @relaxnjoe5422
    Dude I freaking love my legion go. I play it hooked up to a monitor with mouse and keyboard mostly and it works amazing. All these review videos are so critical, this thing is a badass machine

  • @kiosh
    I enjoyed this video, thanks. I love steam oled but i think i will love that big screen on the Go... decisions decisions...

    I’ve had my Go for a week now, and I am loving it. It’s a great little emulator and plays current games incredibly well, even if doing so kills the battery life. It’s just a versatile piece of kit. I fully plan on picking up a portable Bluetooth keyboard and mouse for it for when I need to do work on the go. I think my only real criticism is the speakers. They’re probably the weakest part of the package, and I recommend either a good set of headphones or a dedicated Bluetooth speaker.
  • @sollice01
    im glad that the UI has been updated.
  • @nani8world
    i use the BASEUS 65W powerbank for my Legion GO and recommand it to you guys. By the way: Nice job with the video, it looks very professional.

    any batter backup with a 35watt charger will work. I have many different ones and they all work.
