i hate how inconsistent best buy open box is. it really feels like they just randomize it. from trashed devices in excellent to near perfect ones in fair. makes no sense.
best to go to store, you can check in person. usually, can drop a tier or 2 and still get a nice one if in store

Is there a big performance difference between this and the Go S R1 extreme?

Not really, but the 16GB limit will prevent a small amount of heavy games from even running.

I am using it right now. \

After about 1 year, I have to clean the fan, re-appy thermal. Finally everything is back to normal now.

The MSRP for this was never $550. It has always been $699 (512GB model) and $749 (1TB model).

If I jump, is stick drift a risk on these? I would hate to have a stick go bad and have no recourse to fix it.

I have not had any issues with stick drift. One good thing about this is the original legion go is compatible with the new more ergonomic legion go 2 controllers. So worse thing is that you will have to purchase that. But honestly, with the weight of this thing I find my self using the kickstand and a third party controller most of the time.

I have not had any issues with stick drift. Since the controllers are removable the worse case scenario is you have to replace them with the more ergonomic controllers from the legion go 2 since they are compatible.
