    You hold the top two buttons to turn on the controllers when they're not connected and you can swap the start and select buttons to the top buttons in legion space .
  • @jazaspi10
    Had my Go a week now and really loving it, im coming from the Steam deck lcd and haven't touched it since. The future is exciting for the pc handheld market.
  • @WarrenGuan
    Got my LeGo two weeks ago from BB for my Vegas trip (Tip: Donā€™t believe it will deliver next day when it said it would. BB ended up sending me via UPS Ground from LA to NYC, which was ridiculous. I picked up my 2nd order from my local BB before my flight, and returned the late arrival after I returned from Vegas) Played Horizon 5 and Street Fighter 6 on the plane and successfully fast forwarded my plane trips.
  • @luciann36
    I started the process of returning my legion go a day after arrival. But in the next few days until the date of collection I feel in love. And a day before they should pick up the handheld I cancelled my return. You need time to discover it and after you will love it.
  • @HooktonFonnix
    The Go is the only handled I've used that doesn't hurt my hands after a short gaming session. I don't notice it digging into my palms like a lot of people complain about. This obviously happens for some people, but know that YMMV, and it may just end up being the most comfortable handheld you've ever used
  • @Pavel-gn5yp
    Hello, some tips: 1) For audio: fxsound - gaming mode 2) Virtual memory: disk C - 10 Gb, disk D - 32 Gb 3) Disable CPU turbo boost 4) When using Performance mode, Lenovo works for 90-100 minutes. For heavy games, 20w is enough. 5) Screen resolution in games: If the game runs in 2K resolution as rdr 2 (texture ultra, fsr balance, 20w (Performance mode), fps 36 limit (144 hz screen)) - enjoy. If the game does not work stably at 2k at 36 fps, then the game resolution is 1200p and the screen resolution is 1600p + lossless scaling program with the ls1 algorithm (the game must be in a window) - enjoy

    Legion go is like solving multiple mathematical equations itā€™s a love hate thing with me but itā€™s also a pc thing
  • @bachatas809
    I bought the 1tb on Best Buy on sale itā€™s best handheld right now I also owned SD LCD that I upgrade my self so i have both world itā€™s really awesome
  • @TheDarKris
    The Legion Go has replaced something that I wasnā€™t expecting it to replace: my iPad Pro
  • I had a lot of misgivings about getting a legion go but I kind of love it. I don't mind using it plugged it as it's still more portable than most laptops and having a type C charger around or a portable charging brick most places I use it actually isn't an issue. I like popping it out in a breakroom with a pair of bluetooth headphones. It's not for me to sit in the park unplugged for hours on end. It's not a switch and I don't use it like one. Legion space is ignorable, but I like how it just puts any computer game in my hand no matter where I am. Including a lunch break at the local cafe.
  • @Partinaire
    Micro Center is where you wanna go to get one of these guys. Back when they had just released, I bought an open box one that had been bought and returned within a week and was able to get a 512gb model for like $600. All the open Box ones have literally nothing wrong with them so might as well get them cheaper. The only thing you're missing out on is the Xbox Game Pass trial that comes with the legion go.
  • Just a side not on the audio ,saw on another youtubers site that if you go to your realtek audio settings there are parameters to adjust the sound , he recommended the "club" sound setting, now the audio sounds a lot better.
  • @TheTeque3000
    I think there is a setting in the software to switch the start and select button. I think that was one of the first updates that were done.
  • @MarkLangdahl
    The menu buttons can be changed to start and select and vice versa in the Legion Space settings. I think it was added back in February and I have had it that way from the day I got my Legion Go. Also when it comes to sound I would recommend trying FXSound. Before I installed that I would agree that the sound really sucked. After installing it I gotta say that I prefer the Legion Go over something like my Switch even though the switch has front-firing speakers.
  • @EntertheFray1
    I just watched a video where some guy is selling 3d printed comfort grips that snap on to the legion go at the sides. That might fix your ergonomics issue, though they are sold out now lol. They are specifically custom made for the legion go. The guy commented it really changed how comfortable it felt using them and changed how he viewed legion go. There was also additional 3d printed things they did for it, such as thicker grips for FPS mode controllers that turn them more into a joystick than the flimsy design they are while still having access to the buttons. Also one that allows you to use the controllers as an actual console controller by connecting them both to each other with a middle base via 3d printing. All are fairly cheap at around $20 each. They look fantastic actually and probably a must have if I'm considering getting it. I'm really torn on deciding between steam deck oled vs legion go. So I'm just browsing all videos trying to make a decision. I've never held a handheld console before. I understand the differences - Ease of use and console for steam oled, vs the sheer power that legion go offers, but not as portable and finicky with windows. So I'm not really sure which one I would appreciate more between the two. I'm stuck in limbo because I don't really know which i'd regret least, or prefer more.
  • @Ilike2run4fun
    I have the Steam Deck OLED and Legion Go and I do play my OLED more since the overall experience is better and more efficient than the Go. The Go does have a large and pretty screen and can play games that the OLED has trouble with, but both are awesome to have since they balance each other out.
  • @FabioJackson
    people donā€™t give it time. hasty makes wasty
  • @tehpunisher4568
    You have to push and hold the pause and select the button equivalents on these controllers to turn them on when they are off the main body
  • @GoodValues1
    Iā€™m a battery saver guy so I donā€™t mind playing at reasonable settings to save battery life quite the opposite from you. Just want to give some info. Currently playing lies of P on this thing with 800p low settings quality fsr. 1.10w - 36/40fps - 3hrs 2.12w - 60FPS - 2hrs30minutes Imo the sweetspot for most games are 10w-12w. This works on AAA games that are fairly optimised. Cyrberpunk, god of war, lies of P, forza horizon 5, GTA V, assassin creed games, etc. AAA games that are not quite optimised yet do require atleast 15W-18w for 30fps. Starfield, avatar, new horizon game. Wattage to battery estimation(800p/60hz/wifi off/bluetooth off/light off/low settings) 1. 7w to 8w - 4hrs30mins/4hrs(good for emulation until ps2 for most games 2.9 to 10 w - 3hrs30mins/3hrs(perfect for new light pc games and possible for older AAA game such as hellblade, gta v and also possible for some newer AAA 30-40fps ex-lies of P. 3.11w-12w - 2hrs45mins/2hrs30mins(good for 60FPS optimised triple A games/older AAA games. 4.15w-18w - 2hrs10mins/1hr50mins(good for 30-40fps for newest Not very optimised game such as helldivers 2, avatar, starfield) Of course these are not 100% accurate. These are just based on my experience and rough calculations.
