If I can wait, the 499 model seems great - largely want 8" VRR in a reliable brand (not from Indigogo brands). How's battery life? LEGO wasn't great for that. Wonder if the 32GB brings enough extra oomph vs the SteamOS version?
Steam os is a great experience better than windows. As far as 16gb vs 32gb if there is a difference it’ll be abysmal some games will take advantage but shouldn’t make it a deal breaker. Battery life should also be better, wait for the steam version that’s what I’m going to do.
Check memory allocation that may be why you’re having difficulty with Indiana Jones and Black ops. I had similar issues on the original Legion go and had to go into the bios to allocate more memory to the GPU
@@madscientisthvac on the original Legion Go press and hold the power button and volume up button at the same time once the screen shuts off release the power button once it starts up, it should go into bios. It might be the same for this one being that it’s the same company.
i would only get the steam os if your game is on there. lots are not so its not ideal for ea fc 25, cod bo6, and many other games- however for likes of marvel rivals it runs okay, spiderman and say last of us part 1. the steam os version would be ideal as its 1080p and crisp screen thatll be the selling point over the oled version
Honestly one of the only games SteamOS has issues with right now is some games with Deep Kernal-Level Anti-Cheat. Otherwise I think SteamOS has almost 85%+ full compatibility with the entire Steam Library from what I have heard. Some Black Magic stuff Valve has been doing. It is way easier to use then Windows if you want a simple, turn it on and play your games. Stop and Resume instantly. Does streaming like GeForce Now and will play GOG, Rockstar Launcher, Amazon and other games stores as well using Heroic. Otherwise, Native Game Pass has issues because it is a Windows Store app which is DRM locked to Windows.. Valve is targeting SteamOS systems to be the more affordable option.

Buudy, how have you installed the gpu drivers? are you using the default ones it has come with? You can manually download the gpu drivers from amd. though i do not know when one you have to select for this one. As its the Z2 Chipset. With my legion go. I followed a guide online
It's so frustrating that everyone that's got this item and posted it either know nothing about pc gaming or haven't even tested the things that everyone is burning too know. Battery life? Fan noise? Performances on popular titles NOTHING!!!!
@ i had a gtx 1650 laptop, now i have a rtx 4050 laptop. i also have a rtx 4080 desktop and steam oled. im not a tech nerd or really know it all with tech however i do know that on steam and so forth it says recommended and min req and mine fits that beyond- i do know how to alter settings and all. ive never owned a windows handheld so thats why im asking cause i have no clue what different watts do or frame generation ect.
@@KayezTPwell you can’t what you can on pc handheld then you desktop dipsht what you think we have find different videos of people test each thing you looking for in pc hh
The legion go gets trounced by my ally. Same SOC..... I'd never buy another legion. That's at 800p vs 900p! I suspect the Ally X, which I don't have, will be even harder to beat or meet.
@@akarna69 its a funny saying from back then bro If you know or remember. Crysis was so ahead at its time. Just watch a nuclear bomb going off in crysis.
Its better to buy the original rog ally open box than this. Especially if you want Vrr. This thing even has lesser cores compared to the Rog ally Non extreme
@@AlbyWalker-d5v we don’t have an open box option here in the uk, I guess we have used but new the original rog ally is still more than this in the uk for less storage.
@@KayezTP it is tho especially since the architecture the chip is also using is old. The advantage it has is the Cuda cores meaning you get more GPU power. But games which are more CPU intense will struggle on this device.
@@AlbyWalker-d5v understood. But usually the curve ball issue is optimisation. A great processor etc with games that not being optimised to benefit from it properly is pointless. We can always tell the obvious powerful device when looking at the specs on paper but game developers etc have messed us over on optimisation so many times 😂
itll work however i have not been able to check. i cant be arsed to install 120gb to test it and then uninstall. if mw2, mw3 and warzone 1 and then 2 works on a gtx 1650- then itll work on this device but low settings and tweaks. dont hold me to it tho it might not work for bo6.
How is the sound of the fan compared with the ally and steam deck oled and also speakers compared to claw, ally and ally x and steam deck?
Definitely waiting for the legion go 2

@@mart182003 I mean you could always dual boot with bazzite. It's virtually the exact same thing. Unless you CBA to tinker.

@@vishalbhatti4555 i changed it to 8gb. but marvel rivals still not running past 25fps and is poor. ea fc 25 works tho
How are the speakers on this? The OG legion go was horrible when it came to the speakers
Speakers are great!
can you try cyberpunk and rtx minecraft please?
i just want to see how they preform before i preorder
can you try cricket 2024?
What's the battery life on video playback and web browsing?
@@Delta-eo2st you got a phone right?
should I get this over the steamOS? More games on GO S
I got this because the steam os version can’t access game pass without streaming

Hows the battery life?
Check out my latest video!

At the moment I updated everything in windows settings, and check legion space which said drivers are the latest
@@IBK_GAMINGDENyou need latest Amd driver's they are much better than stock paired with amd adrenaline has turned my legion into a beast
Shoud i buy Lenovo Go instead of this to play Black Ops 6 ?
The Go S has VRR and a bigger battery, so I’d say it’s the better option.
Just wait for the Lenovo legion go 2
May i know what APU of this Legion Go S?
6800u but with 4 cores instead of 8

i love the screen but the price is just too close to the ally x.
I agree which here in the uk it’s a bigger difference 650 to 800
In my country is like 1000$ for Ally x and 600$ for this

Will it run indie games at high settings and 60 fps?
@@parazels83 yes easily
How does forza motorsport run?
can u do ea fc 25. i want to see if itll go above 30fps or not and the best settings for it. thanks in advance.
Can it run crysis

It's because it's just 4 cores. The base Rog ally non extreme even has more cores than this.
Games like BO6 is CPU intense so it's going to struggle
