The Legion Go's software looks great but needs some refining to match ASUS. (Image credit: Daniel Rubino) Gaming and performance highlights There are dozens of other gaming handhelds on the market today. (Image credit: Rebecca Spear / Windows Central)

If you have no need for pressure sensitivity to control paint flow, chisel, or brush strokes, it's just a matter of finding your preferred passive pen. This may be adequate for various Steam modeling apps. Regarding shape and weight, the Legion Go has a massive 8.8-inch screen and weighs relatively a lot for a gaming handheld at 1.88 pounds. As expected, it feels bulky in my hands, with some buttons too spaced out to be convenient to press. Even my husband, a tall six-foot-five man with large hands, found the controllers a little too big for his liking. This being the case, I'm sure that children and people with small hands will have to strain their fingers wide to hold it. I could actually see a stylus (with a bindable button on it too) being a useful accessory for playing strategy games and other mouse-heavy games that might gain a lot from it, which might be more comfortable than either the touch screen or the pads. One hand on a grip, the other holding the stylus. Of all the leading gaming handhelds on the market today, this is the only one with more than one USB4 Type-C port (with Power Delivery 3.0, 40Gbps data transfer, and DisplayPort 1.4). There's one on top of the device and one on the bottom. This allows me to charge the handheld in either location, depending on what's more convenient — I use the top one when in handheld mode and the bottom one when charging in the included travel hard shell since there's a hole in the case for conveniently doing so.The Lenovo Legion Go is bulky from the front, but its grips are ergonomic and thinner than you'd think.

Concern is that the Wii U tablet was super lightweight, maybe this would be too heavy to comfortably use one handed while poking at it with the other, idk

The overall look of the Legion Go casing is boxy and somewhat unattractive; however, it has a very sturdy build, and the large screen outshines the controllers right in front of you. I thought there would be some wiggling or creaking from the detachable controllers, but this is not the case. They can only be removed if I intend for it to happen. Otherwise, they stay very securely attached. Meanwhile, the Legion Go earned higher scores for CrystalDiskMark, which tests SSD speeds. Lenovo's handheld scored a read speed of 5,013 MB/s and a write speed of 1,620 MB/s, which is respectable and puts the Legion Go near the level of a Dell Lattitude 9440. In comparison, ROG Ally scored a 4,317 MB/s read speed and a 1,844 MB/s write speed. Read and write speeds are essential in gaming because they determine how fast the system can open programs, save data, or repeat previous tasks. So it's good to see such good results from the Legion Go. Although the Legion Go still doesn't have the best battery life, it can still last longer than many other Windows gaming handhelds out there. In my testing, the Legion Go lasted about two hours on average but could also run for up to about five hours on reduced settings. The large 8.8-inch IPS display with a 144Hz refresh rate really makes a difference when playing games. It would be better if the Legion Go supported VRR, through.

A powerful contender in the handheld PC gaming space.

If you want more, Linux has no problem supporting pressure pens. For example, Gimp supports ABS_PRESSURE . While Legion Space does offer some setting options, they are somewhat limited and don't allow for as much customization as would be preferred. Alternatively, if you have a Wacom or like-model drawing slate, you should have no problem plugging it in while in Desktop mode to use Gimp or with Steam available utils (like Aseprite). A: A stylus is a small device that looks like a pen and is used to interact with certain touchscreen devices. It can be used to draw, write, or navigate the screen. Styluses offer a more precise method of control than using fingers on the touch screen.

I found it to be a somewhat Zen experience, lying down wearing the Legion Glasses with detached Legion Go controllers in my hands and playing chill games without holding the screen to my face. However, overall, the Legion Glasses seem like a niche tool that only a select few will want. Graphics look really good on the Legion Go, but gameplay can be somewhat choppy, especially on more demanding games.As I previously mentioned, the Legion Go I reviewed has a 512GB SSD for storage, but I can add more space by utilizing the microSD card slot on top of the handheld. It can hold up to a 2TB microSD card, giving me plenty of extra room to work with.

The Legion Go performed similarly to the ROG Ally in almost every benchmark test I ran, but it was a bit choppy in actual gameplay. Overall, it is important to consider how much precision and mobility you need from your stylus when deciding which type of device to opt for. The type of device you choose should depend on your individual needs and preferences. The center of the glasses' OLED screen is the clearest when wearing them, while the outer edges are a bit more blurred. This might be because the glasses hang out rather far from my face. At any rate, I didn't see any way to adjust focus to make the screen easier to see (there is, however, the ability to add prescription lenses for those who need them).The biggest problem plaguing gaming handhelds right now is short battery life, which is why it's such a big deal that Lenovo seems to have found a way to make the Legion Go last for a decent amount of time (though it still doesn't last super long). This is one of the most expensive gaming handhelds out there, but that's because it has one of the very best screens and a good processor. Overall, it's well priced for what it offers. day warranty against any manufacturer defects or failures. We will be glad to set up an exchange for
