The screen size is just a little bit bigger on the legion. Oh yeah the Ally is $800. I got the legion for $550. And in my opinion the Legion is just the better machine for the better price.

    I’m currently in the process of selling my Legion Go so I can get an Ally X. I’m having a hard time with the Legion Go. Better dies WAAAYYY too fast, when I dock it to a TV for whatever reason, performance is not as good as it is in handheld, the weight of the damn thing makes my hands go numb after 20 minutes into a game session, the speakers sound like shit, and the design of the Legion Go is not ergonomic at all. Those sharp edges on the controller is irritating. So yeah, it just doesn’t feel like a finished product.
    The Ally has better battery, better ergonomics, 24GB of ram as opposed to the 16GB of RAM, it will keep good performance docked or undocked, yeah the screens smaller but it’s still good as shit. I can live with it. So idk man, that’s where I’m at. Grabbing me an Ally X and call it a day.

      did exactly that, I also don't think Lenovo is as good as Asus idk, they made way more laptops I think? Asus has a Rog gaming line they know their shit it's an amazing company it's where I bought all my laptops for gaming too and never had issues. I'm sure they make a big version one day but tbh portable is portable desktop is desktop so even though I'd love a 8.8 I think maybe 8 inch or 7.5 max and that's it, it will become so irritating to use if it's bigger. I think the only way this can work is maybe having fixed controller or at least more ergonomic.

      it's why no other company does that format other than some smaller ones try 8 inch but for regular gaming especially if you already have a big screen at home it's the best. gaming in bed is nice but not healthy when you never sit at a desk cause you can avoid it with the legion go.

    I’ve been a legion go user for almost 6 months and it has been my everyday use device. I have a ps5 and never had a pc. My experience with the legion go is a great pc experience. There’s games that I bought in ps5 that I decided to buy on my legion go and man the difference in playing in a tv and playing in your hands is almost night and day. Idk what it is but ever since this recent update the power saving mode has been able to run Fortnite at 40-50 fps while getting 2 and a half hours of play time. Might not be running at its absolute best but it is playable to where it’s almost like going from ps5 to ps4 to play Fortnite. Idk these are my personal experiences and I’d get behind the ally X but idk how I’d be able to adjust such a small screen. Remember these devices are good for you depending on what your everyday life looks like.

    It’s interesting that you prefer the Legion Go to the ROG Ally X. It’s cool that you have detachable controls and can tilt the screen to play old school vertical shooters on MAME for example, but even as an LLG user, the Ally X edges it because modern AAA games work better with it. It also has better battery. Anyway, I’m waiting patiently for the Lenovo Legion Go 2.

You can do a lot of things to up your experience on the Ally, steam deck, and Legion Go. From installing windows on the steam deck or steamOS on both Ally and Legion Go with Bazzite. To extending your play time with a powerbank or even up the battery size with the Ally X or even a bigger battery mod for the OG ally.

    You can have legion space boot on startup always, it’s an option, but most people keep it turned off because since you’re able to reprogram your controller buttons through legion space, if you have legion space open while you have a game open, it will cause the game to start acting weird.

    It's better than the ally x. I don't even notice the lack of vrr if you tweak the games just right. The speakers suck but you get used to them after a few months. It's better in every other way than the ally x minus battery life but I plug in most of the time.

    I like the larger screen of the Legion Go, but it doesn't have VRR & makes the entire device much bigger. Also, the 1440p is useless as you're not going to be running any games at 1440p with that hardware. I'd rather they made it 1080p with VRR than 1440p. Also, the 8 more gigs of Ram & the longer lasting battery on the Ally X made me choose it over the Legion Go. I actually just ordered the Ally X & it was supposed to arrive today but it's late. I really like the detachable controllers of the Legion Go, and with the kickstand on the screen allowing you to set it up on a table. Also the FPS mode is really cool. If the Legion Go had those 8 more Gigs of RAM & went with VRR over 1440p, I absolutely would have chosen the Legion Go even with the shorter battery life.

    • @ItsOleg

      @megaloth1955 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      VRR is an overrated feature. If you need it - you're not supplying enough juice, or not optimizing the graphics fidelity. It isn't sustainable, you can't just rely on VRR when the FPS fluctuates wildly, you'll definitely feel it, with or without VRR. At best it might prevent the occasional sub-second "hiccup", which you wouldn't get anyway if you optimized the game to fit your hardware

    The speaker on that thing sucks worse than a laptop or very cheap smart phone. I sold it and bought an ally-x because of that and the GO fried my SD card. That made me VERY MAD!!! As in it doesn't work at all anymore on any device and the data is gone. There is controller lag even when it's connected to the body. If those issues were fixed I would buy it again. But the sound is the worst out of any device, ever. Nothing sounds worse, it made a new benchmark of what bad sound can be.

      Exactly you have to do so much to get the Go to run at a decent fps because of the resolution they chose. How the hell did they think the Z1E chipset would be able to handle that resolution. And they say it’s equal but the Ally runs better at a higher resolution of 1080p because most of the time you’ll be playing at 800p on the GO. Was definitely the most frustrating handheld that I’ve owned.
