And this year, the latter caught my attention the most.
Despite the success of theSteam Deck OLED, it never wowed in terms of pure power.
So, surely anAsus ROG Ally Xwould do, right?
Not really, seeing as it only runs Windows 11.
Im sorry Microsoft, but the operating system just wasnt built for PC handhelds.
And I wasnt a fan when I tried it on a Lenovo Legion Go.
Now, though, the stars have aligned.
Just look what happened when we gave Windows 11 the boot and overlayedSteamOS on an Asus ROG Ally X.
Will the specs be good enough?
The Lenovo Legion Go S is arriving in multiple configurations throughout 2025.
The Windows 11 model is set to arrive in January, with a starting price of $799.
In May, another Windows-powered Legion Go S will arrive and will start at $599.
So, why more affordable?
Well find out more details soon, but either way, the Legion Go S has some beefy components.
Thats better than some gaming laptops around the same price range.
Plus, weve seen it in action.
While we still have more time with it, we have high hopes for its power and efficiency.
Im a big fan of pushing systems to their limits, especially when theyre portable.
A design that works
Does the Legion Go S look familiar?
Its clear Lenovo has learned from its first take on a gaming handheld.
The original Legion Go is a fine gear but can feel clunky at times.
proudly, the Legion Go S will kick off the year strong for gaming and I want in.
Thats what makes the Legion Go S shine, making it somewhat of a successor to the Steam Deck.
Will it have stiff competition with the inevitable Nintendo Switch 2?
