On August 6th, Legion go s Windows and Steam versions received the latest AMD drivers, and from January until now, Legion go og has not received any latest drivers at all. Is it worth waiting for the official AMD Legion og drivers? I'm afraid this will happen again with Legion go 2

Why would I buy another Lenovo device when they've shown zero commitment to supporting devices for any length of time? I keep seeing posts from their rep saying "I promise it will get better" and nothing happens. Unbelievable that Legion Go has received such poor driver support.

If your Steam Deck Broke, Would You Buy Another One or a Different Handheld?

I sidegraded to the Legion Go S SteamOS version and I've sworn to never buy anything else but a Steam Deck again. While on paper it seems great, more power, better screen, steamOS, more ram, more everything. It also has it's downsides you realize when you actually use it daily. It's bulky and heavy

Windows hate is overblown.

I think it's mostly around the current implementation of windows on handhelds. It's a standard version of windows, with some extra bits on top to shoehorn it onto handhelds. Steamos was purpose built with handhelds in mind. It's also based on arch Linux and runs only what's required. Whereas you got

Concerned to play fortnite on Legion Go 1

I've been playing Fortnite on my Legion laptop for 5 years, less so in the last 6 months. You're not getting banned for no reason at all. I can't get Fortnite to work on my SteamOS Legion Go S anyway. I read it works fine with the Windows version, though.

Legion Go 2 Z2E + GPD G1

Ugh that sucks. Guess I’ll just keep it tucked away. I had to tinker with it so much with my Legion Go 1 and it really took the fun out of having it so maybe I’ll just buy a normal eGPU down the road or try a different all in one eGPU. I still have my OG legion go so maybe I’ll try to dedicate that

Which handheld for strategy/indie games (Civ & FM)? Legion Go S vs. Steam Deck OLED?

Didn't play either, but I have played some RTS and other mouse heavy PC games on the deck. I think the legion go S would be a huge headache for you to wrangle into feeling even usable for those kinds of games. The track pads on the deck not only function well as a mouse, but also are fantastic for s

Ist das Steam Deck 2026 noch der beste Handheld PC?

Es ist zwar nicht der stärkste handheld pc aber der mit dem besten Support, rog ally und legion go sind zwar stärker, brauchen aber mehr Strom und haben mitkriegen mittlerweile kein Treiber Support mehr (es sei denn du bügelst halt selber steam os drauf) alles neuere ist meines Erachtens viel zu teu

Great device, but sometimes I can’t enter my Windows PIN on ROG Ally Xbox - has anyone else experienced this? Thanks!

It's also on the Legion Go S Windows version . It's more of Microslops poor optimization !
