Display is inherently strange. it's portrait orientation instead of landscape. Software makes it landscape. Overlays like the AMD one show up oriented portrait. You've been warned.

Dave2D released a video about this. Apparently, with Steamdeck OS, the Legion Go had better performance in some games, better battery life, etc.

It isn't bad to have choices. SteamOS is a single-purpose OS that doesn't try to do too much outside of gaming. It can but it isn't in your face like Windows can be. Right now, I just want to turn it on and run Fantasy Life and it does just that. There's a suspend feature that's pretty neat too but my controllers currently don't reconnect after suspending until you reboot the system.

I like to play assetto corsa competizione on the LeGo, mostly for the fact that AMD AMFM2 allows to visually double the frame rate at relatively high in game graphics settings. At 800p I get up to 109fps at 30 Watts TDP or 90fps at 20 Watts TDP.
This is not supported under Steam Os, sadly. My Steam Deck Oled has a hard time pushing 60fps in the same game at much lower settings.
it really depends on what games you're playing but at least for the racing Sims I tried, it's not even close - as much as I like the form factor and Oled brightness of the Steam Deck.

This a warm deal at best. It was this same price over 8 months ago. And then it was $350 a couple weeks ago at Target. At this rate, you are better off waiting for the next gen models.

There are trade offs.

Ally has VRR screen, much better software and updates, astonishingly better speakers. Overall, it's a much better user experience. The screen is a bit small for me at 7".

LeGo has a bigger, more vibrant screen but it's a native portrait screen so it does not do VRR. Its speakers are the definitively worst speakers I have experienced on ANY handheld in the last 15 years. The detachable controllers are cool but you'll need the 3d printed custom grips for anything remotely comfortable. The software is lackluster.

I've had the Steamdeck LCD, ROG Ally Z1E, Legion Go, ROG Ally X, and currently MSI Claw 8 AI+.

you know what you're talking about. the Legion GO's lack of VRR is an Achilles heel, as is the poor battery life, fan noise, grip comfort and speakers. You can tweak the sound setting but not really anything else. I returned mine within a week, and placed an order for a Steam Deck OLED which has just been just a completely better experience, from ergonomics, sound, display quality, and ease of use. It doesn't have all of the horse power than the Legion Go does, and that only appears in one of the games I play (Forza Horizon 5), but it seems I can play most games I like (older titles like Wolfenstein, Halo, Last of Us Part II) just fine. The Steam Deck is just a much better experience for me than the Legion Go. I don't even miss the Legion Go's screen at all. Maybe the kickstand though. And Windows. But not really enough to ever want to buy a Legion Go for any reason.
