Legion Go S powered by SteamOS review: A purpose-built OS makes all the difference
The article reviews the Lenovo Legion Go S, a gaming handheld powered by SteamOS, as an alternative to the Steam Deck. The device features a straightforward design with an 8-inch 1200p display, Hall effect sensors for joysticks, and programmable back paddles. The SteamOS version offers slightly better performance than the Windows 11 model, likely due to the optimization of Valve's platform. While the SteamOS Legion Go S is more expensive than the Windows version, it provides a better user experience tailored for gaming. The article notes that the device is a welcome option for those who prefer SteamOS over the Steam Deck, particularly for playing more demanding modern games. However, the Steam Deck remains the better choice for budget-conscious buyers or those who prioritize energy efficiency for older and less resource-intensive titles.
