Lenovo Legion Go - OMG THIS IS SO COOL 

699? Ain't no way

Your Wallpaper Pls

699?????? Glad i didnt buy ally 😂😂😂

that is an insane price, if its anywhere close to that after imports then i need it.

If that's the price $698 I'm buying one. But any higher and I'm out

I suspect this might actually allow me to game with a mouse. I just can't get used to AWSD plus ctrl shift etc, but with a thumbstick in my left hand and triggers at hand I think I could become a much better FPS player with this.

Thanks for informing us on Terraria news Chip!

I appreciate the mouse. but for us, me, Im lefthanded gamer, using mouse on the left, this is kinda deal breaker for me

would be nice for terraria aye

@@ulyssessait do you play handheld consoles or with a controller at all? or do you only play on PC?

I am HR for Lenovo and can confirm we have given him a $500,000 pay out for developing this idea. Is that enough for your social media satisfaction?

​@@OrvinReyes And you need therapy

Bro, just connect a mouse to the handheld, you get the same cumbersome result lol

​@@Cosmic-Bear.fr nothing revolutionary about it smh.

@@Cosmic-Bear. you dont get the point, that same mouse can also be attached to the device so you can play even without a desk to play on. If I have an ally and I want to be able to play using a mouse then I have to always bring around an additional mouse but with this you just have to detach the controller. The detachable controller presents so many use cases for me.

@@TheDave2DGiveaway-.what do you gain from embarrassing yourself?

I mean it's still more expensive and less functional than the deck

@@ThompYTSure but that’s because Valve sells the steam deck at a loss. They make that money back from people buying games from steam which other companies like this one can’t.

​@ThompYT depends all these handhelds are mini pcs. You can play epic game library, Xbox library, GeForce now library, and emulated libraries! With the steam deck you're limited to only steam games unless you want to change the os for some odd reason. Me personally I've started playing alot of emulated games on my phone but I'm missing ps3, ps4 and Xbox games so a handheld pc is most definitely worth it 😂 the only question Is what used pc would beat the price to performance

@@thenoobreturnz8968 Either you're on crack or you've never had a steam deck. Thousands of emulated games, epic games too no issue, GeForce now as well. And if you don't like Linux for some odd reason it's not weird at all to install windows if you're that desperate for a very specific game. the steam deck is a mini PC, more than any of these will ever be

Steamdeck has been a blessing for those extra hours at work for me …. Because in my case it involves alot of downtime and waiting

First party? This ain’t a PS, Xbox, or Switch.

Nyaee na Rajyam Lavde na bhojyam 🥰

@@BITSAT2024wtf??😅

Why would you ever want first party games?

Yep. If valve didn't release the steamdeck, the computer manufacturers won't even think about releasing hand held computers. 👌

Get gabes sweaty balls out of your mouth. It was Nintendo and it doesn't matter how much you deny it.

Steam Deck already has a suitable replacement for a mouse and it doesn't require sitting down in front of a smooth flat surface: gyro aiming. Look up gyro aiming on the steam deck. There are several ways to go about it, usually combining the gyro with either a trackpad or a thumbstick. It's why the thumbsticks have touch sensitive caps.

nah, man, they existed earlier, they just were extremely expensive and they were super niche. Sony did it in 2006 with their Sony Vaio UX UMPC. It came with Windows XP. Steam did bring them to the mainstream though.

@@Ballador well if steamdeck didn't innovate the hardware, then we will just see a failed handheld computer.

And give us a box they thought outside of for a case with the device...unlike ROG Ally

Seriously, the steam deck is garbage and so ugly.

It's not garbage. It's not perfect, it's not for everyone or even me, particularly, but it's not garbage.

it won’t the moment it releases the company is gonna get sued cuz the patent for that style of controller belongs to a company that fucks over youtubers for less

Unfortunately, like the rest of windows-based handhelds it has a very niche enthusiast/tinkerer market, because handheld experience with windows is too rough to say it mildly. I'm waiting for Valve to start licensing StreamOS to third parties, this is when those handhelds will start to be competitive with Steam Decks.

Meanwhile playstation edge still doesn't use one, laughable

life

or he is lazy af, no script

​@@YasinHasanExactly. I love Dave's videos, but this one is all over the place.

Nah dave forget how to make his usual video style, it's been long pause and man is old

So long that David’s hair has seemingly grown out - seriously, when did that happen? Haha.

This is the longest, with no context or comparisons to other metrics. I guess I was right, not a terrible channel, but if you want a comprehensive review that doesn't seem like an ad look elsewhere. Because it seems like he was STEAMDECK IS GOD, ALLY IS GOD, NOW THIS IS GOD, UNTIL THE NEXT. Don't insert any context or nuance on how the pricing of all of this is shit. Just compare the $400 steamdeck to this $800 device. Sure the steamdeck only has 64 GB storage, but this only has 256 GB for double the fucking price. That should be a bigger issue. The desktop replacement laptop was a minor seller for a reason. You have to value the lack of portability. He tends to lean into certain aspects without any context.

Props to Lenovo for not cheapening out on a part that will get abused. ♥

​@@KylePandapatanWill be interesting to see how well the device can be opened and repaired. I'd bet that with the detachable controllers it's not user repairable

Actually magnetic joysticks have long been extremely popular on Nintendo Switch and Steam Deck thanks to the company guilkit

Even the PS2 / PS3 era potentiometer sticks used to last ALOT longer. My two PS3 controllers still dont drift. This crap started with the PS4 era consoles somehow.

@@xXYannuschXx Nah, drift been here for a long time. I had 4 controllers for every console since the N64, and I had drift on PS2, PS3, Gamecube, Xbox, 360, and PS4 controllers. I agree that the problem has definitely gotten worse, though, as among all those controllers, only 1 controller I had for each console had drift (always the one that came with the console, and mostly within 2 years), EXCEPT for the PS4 - All 4 of my controllers have drift, and one of them got it within 2 months of use. I am *certain* that manufacturers are just cheaping out at this point.

What you want to do is Integer scaling

Yeah, definitely didn't expect that, and I'm not even sure how much I'd use, but it's definitely a cool feature. (My guess is it will be one of those divisive, "I don't really care" or "I absolutely love this" features, similar to people who use gyro for aiming, or the trackpads on the steam deck)

I’ve been watching handheld market for a while now and this gave me a jaw drop 😮

Would be dope to have a flight simulator joystick mount you could attach it to.

I don't know, if you are serious about competitive a wireless mouse is better in every way, otherwise gyro aiming is enough for offline game.

Vertical gaming mice alone should be more mainstream since it’s so much better for our wrists in the long run. Glad to see proper ergonomics baked into this design.

They need to or ask some other Chinese company to do it for them if Nintendo becomes unhappy with them. For the first time I am happy yhat Alienware chose not to bring out UFO. And Razer brought out their mobile SOC handheld. Those two would have priced it insanely.

They or some 3rd party will definitely take this so far missed opportunity. But I realized that you probably can just connect a ps5 or xbox controller to this thing anyway.

@@beckinbinderinalso they way more expensive cuz those company’s don’t have any means to get more money back , I hoped ASUS and Lenovo could ask way less money for these pc/console hybrids Still waiting for the right one to buy , if only Alienware brought theirs … it would be even more expensive that ASUS and Lenovo combined 😂😂😂😂

​@@beckinbinderin​You skipped over "accessible." Nothing accessible about ayaneo. though their devices are beautiful.

@@filipemiguel8754 the steam deck will forever be the budget option, no other company has the ability Valve does to sell the device either at a loss or breaking even then making money on steam, any other company needs to make money on the device itself I say this not because you suggested otherwise, but that the way you worded it made it sound like you want to see steam deck level pricing on these, that wont happen, $500 is the lowest I would see all non steam deck PC handhelds going, though you do always have the option of waiting till a gen 2 device and buying a used gen 1, AMDs already announced their 8000 series mobile APUs will come out in 2024, I would be surprised not to see a Z2

@@filipemiguel8754yeah, Alienware. The Dell series that is almost always overpriced and underdeveloped. GG.

​@@filipemiguel8754I can definitely see Alienware dropping a $999+ handheld.

It never left.

@@PSYCHOV3N0M Since the death of PS vita, Switch was the only thing mainstream until the steam deck arrived so yea, it was dead before now.

we all should say: "Thanks Nintendo"

​@clvn9ja before the switch there was the 2ds and 3ds

What has happened is the transition from portable gaming being its own distinct category, because a handheld system was incapable of matching a desktop PC or console, to an era where the same set of games can now be taken anywhere. PSP started this trend, but still needed big cuts to be made to games for them to be ported over. Vita could've done it better but Sony never wanted to fully commit to it. The Switch changed the equation by fully merging Nintendo's home console and portable game systems. It changed what we see handheld gaming as. Even though it's long in the tooth now its impressive what has been achieved with Switch hardware. And now with the advances in x86 APUs it's become totally feasible to stuff gaming laptop innards into a Switch style form factor leading to all these incredibly impressive devices we've seen in the last year.

They aren't really that portable. Handheld yes but we are missing the vita/3DS level pocket size

Windows?

copying the switch and steam deck is not innovation. its a 6 year old concept at this point

But those were also running games specifically made for them. I don’t disagree that it would be cool to see another PSP, but that would probably need some upgrade in hardware like Apple’s M-chips were for Macbooks: super efficient to save space in cooling and battery size.

​@@timzy11fulthe concept of this specific device is a little bit different though. isn't that the point of innovation?

yes, the ones from nintendo are good at inventing these weird things 😅

@@ema_443 ehhhh other then the detachable controllers there isnt much the switch does hardware wise that is impressive, the docking solution is just a USB C port with displayport alt mode, the impressive part comes from the seamless transition, which would be on the software side of things and for previous consoles, the wiiu flopped hard, Nintendo bought, not created, the wiis motion controls, and everything before that is just standard hardware

@@flamingscar5263 so did you think that right after March 2017th. Before that no one had done anything close to this but now they’re behind in handheld gaming when the switch is what brought handheld gaming back to the forefront🤦🏾‍♂️🤣🤣

You mean, beyond the box? 😉

​@@flamingscar5263I remind you the switch was launched in 2017, before that year there was nothing comparable in the market. Like it or not the switch was revolutionary for the time being.

Lenovo has always been kings in their customer support so i wouldn't worry much

Legion is the premium gaming range of lenovo. I really hope they launch something which is more affordable, like they have ideapad in laptops.

I was gonna say I see more old Lenovo stuff than new so I’m sure it’ll be supported

Except Lenovo has terrible software support so good luck using it for more than a year.

As an Ally owner, even if it did affect the price some, I think it'd be worth it. You still get a handheld when playing an RPG or a racing game, but you can make a tiny laptop when playing shooters and it's way easier than carrying a mouse and keyboard with you. That track pad on the right is also a godsend and the Ally so desperately needs one IMHO. Same for the ports, this one seems to have 2x USB C, and the screen looks so much nicer thanks to the smaller bezel. Even if it's like $999 it'd be completely worth it for me.

Looks like starting price for the Legion Go will be USD699

so the price has been announced 512b 16gb of DDR5 with the z1 extreme chip is $699 and for the 1tb version is $749.99

Unless they're reporting the controller button input as keyboard presses there will be a lot of games that completely refuse mouse input while a controller is being actively used.

Did you try gyro aiming? With practice you can play shooters REALLY well with it

I've been using the JSAUX case which isn't a carrying case like this one, but it does come with a cover that has a cutout for the charging cable. Not sure if it will fit your needs but it's definitely a cool feature.

just get a scissor and drill your own hole for christ sake

​@KasukeSadiki The Jsaux mod case is fantastic. I bought the fan kit and it has come in handy with games like Baldur's Gate 3 where the temp will hit 70 fast with the internal fan running wide open. With the Jsaux modcase and fan running at roughly half speed I can get it down to 64, if I turn it up all the way I can get it down to 59. Fantastic case and great attachments.

This one is better bro just save your money and wait for this one to come out.

Same I'm holding off for this I love my steam deck but this looks nice

Would still like to see how it does after launch.

Exactly the same

Rog isn’t very good imo. Disappointed by something pretty much every time I turn it on.

@fabiodragon13 x86 PCs/gaming PCs and handheld gaming PCs are commodities so innovative features like the mouse design are good for helping consumers decide between one product or the other when you can't get the same feature anywhere else

Deck is innovative on the OS and software scale... Asus just released a powerful windows handheld... And Lenovo actually innovated on the hardware level.

@@Viesta yep I agree

The Deck was pretty innovative when it came out especially on the controller side of things and the OS ui is excellent, but Lenovo really has delivered a fine device here, if I did not have a steam deck already this would be a hard choice which device to get!

@@Viestaasus innovated on the cooling aspect. The ally is quiet and doesn’t get warm by your hands. Really game changing and hard to go back to anything else in my experience

I'm pretty sure this takes the best of all of them and combines them into one, not to mention this is the first handheld that supports the highest bandwidth memory that can finally take advantage of rdna 3 rather than being held back like in the Ally which competes more with the steam deck especially when you look at 1% lows

​@@NadeemAhmed-nv2brIt runs windows though so it's over

And it will be called Nintendo Switch 2

Brad's 260 though

​@@ennayanneWhat does Windows have to do with it?

"I'm happy with my deck for years but this will replace it" nice job contradicting yourself.

@@BahhBahhBrownSheep "I'm happy with my Deck" doesn't contradict "I may end up replacing it". I love my Steam Deck but this thing is a somewhat unnecessary upgrade. If it turns out to be an amazing device, I may buy it. If I don't end up doing that, it's because I'm happy with my Steam Deck and don't want to spend the money. That doesn't mean I'm not happy with it. It means there may be a better device that might make me even happier. Goofball

Don't validate Internet trolls bro. Sometimes it looks like an honest reply, but he's just trying to mess with you. I've had my eye on the steam deck OLED. The legion with its MASSIVE screen is very alluring. But that thing has to weigh as much as a brick after 20 mins of holding it.

@@brianflores8303 the legion go sucks, I took it back two days after ever before the oled was announced. I hope OP didn’t switch to it.

Give some respect to ava neo as well. They revived this scene even before valve

The competition is cool to see, but it creates the same issues as gaming laptops where we shell out a bunch of money, then 3-5 years pass and the you have to upgrade to the latest model. I'd rather have a few APU, batteries, display, ram, motherboard options. Yeah I know that would be very costly, but I'd pay to keep what I have up to date on my time

This isn't Apple, I wouldn't worry too much about replacements

With how I play on my Switch mostly at home, I place it on a tablet mount that holds the console, then use the pro controller to play it in 'tabletop' mode. This device have a similar functionality will be perfect for playing certain PC games in a similar fashion.

As when attached, the weight is about 250gr more than RoG Ally, but it's way bigger too. Ally looks mini on camera.
