I swapped my Steam Deck for a Legion Go and ended up hating it in every way possible, and no, it wasn't Windows

I bought Asus Rog, Steamdeck and Legion Go and the only one I kept is the Legion.  Controllers fit my hands better, game play is excellent, love the screen size and quality and it's the only one that really has any other utility for me beyond gaming.

If it's your true opinions, I respect it, someone likes and hates, totally personal preference.  But to me it's funny that you complain a lot of things and one of them is not being able to sit on your lap, well, it's not designed to do so; I've never heard of people complaining it's so hard to drive a Ferrari in 10KM/H zone with fuel efficiency of 5L/100KM.

Stuck some $3 sticky grips on the outside, attached the magnetic slides, this thing is perfect. The fps mode is phenomenal. You get everything that's good about a switch but made better. Playing MK1 on this is a blast, old school shooters no problem, emulation yes please. If this article isn't satire then I'm not even sure you've used the legion lol.

Some of these commenters are truly NPCs...

But I suppose I should accept that's what I get for pursuing mid-tier goods on the internet.

Clearly the writer had an agenda.
Legion go controls and experience are far superior to the steam deck and every other handheld on the market.

How much did steam pay you for this article?
Go is a much better device all around, it's like you're writing for the sake of knocking out an article that will get clicks because 99% of people will disagree.

The writer should have watched Russ of Retro Gaming Corp YouTube channel. He would have had all the info he needed to know about the Legion Go and it would've saved him some time and pocket money.

Would have been better off with the legion tab 3 or even your phone with a gamesir g8+ controller, BT KB, with apollo, artemis, and tailscale installed. 2560x1600 @ 165hz display, fantastic controller, free open source streaming software that blows steamlink and the like out of the water, and a nice secure vpn for a true remote desktop. Steamdeck is trash in comparison.

This writer is DEAD wrong. I've owned every handheld from the steam deck to the legion go,Asus,rogue, and even a switch. The legion go out performs them all. He's writing option more than facts. I did have to update all the drivers to make it run like butter but now it runs BG3 and Black myth wukong(Most triple a games) better than your average pc. If you dont like the built in controllers buy a better one (they work great for me though.)

Part of me wonders if the writer is just out of touch or not tech savvy enough to run a simple update.

If you're comparing steam deck to legion go, get the legion go.

I have both the steam deck and legion go, if I'm wanting to play a portable game, I'm picking up the legion go every time.

It's like somebody clicked the Legion Go bot button. Somebody even had the audacity to say that the SD does nothing better than the Go, laughable! SteamOS, well basically any of the Linux gaming focused builds run rings around the trash heap for gaming that is Windows and none of the pathetic add-ons that the other gaming handhelds use come close to fixing it. Having used a Go I think someone would have to be simple to think it feels better in the hand and the touchpads make the deck far more usable for all types of games. Absolute NPC's.

Glad there's a comment section. Guy who wrote it can have his opinions but is dead wrong. The Lego is awesome!!!

You forgot the rest of the quote, "jack of all trades, master of none but better then a master of one."

This review really upset the fan boys. I guess fan boys aren't that into their crappy legion or they would be playing it instead of reading reviews for a product they already own
