Lenovo Legion Go S SteamOS

93% Lenovo Legion Go S SteamOS review: Steam elevates this handheld to another level
Bron: Techaeris EN→NL
The Legion Go S SteamOS should have been the only Go S released. I’m not even sure why we were given the Windows version, probably contracts. This handheld is much better than its Windows counterpart in software performance. The design is really nice, and I love the color. If I had one complaint about the design it would be the grips. Like the Windows version, these are just a bit shallow for me. But it doesn’t make it bad; I can tolerate it. The buttons, sticks, and D-pad were all amazing and felt good. Performance and battery life are also good; battery life could be better, but this is something we deal with on gaming handhelds. SteamOS is the star of the show here. No Windows nonsense. No Windows AI. No Windows anything.

Tony is back with another handheld gaming PC review, but this one might seem familiar ???? The Lenovo Legion Go S with SteamOS is a true Steam Deck rival and arguably puts Windows 11 handheld to shame thanks to its snappy interface and strong performance.

The Lenovo Legion Go S SteamOS is the best version of the Legion Go S. While there is a small sacrifice in the form of game selection tied to Steam, the benefits of leveraging the refined SteamOS experience are well worth that trade-off. If you’re looking for a portable handheld PC experience, the Legion Go S is on your radar. I cannot recommend choosing the Lenovo Legion Go S SteamOS enough. Priced at $599.99, it is the best version Lenovo has to offer.

90% I tested the new Legion Go S — and it’s the Steam Deck killer I’ve been waiting for
Bron: Tom's Guide EN→NL
I once said I wanted a handheld with the ROG Ally X’s specs that ran on SteamOS. I’m happy to say the Lenovo Legion Go S is literally what I’ve asked for. Unless we see a SteamOS-powered handheld with an AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme chip released this year, I’m confident in saying this will be my favorite handheld of 2025. If you own a Steam Deck and are happy with it, then you don’t need to upgrade to this Legion Go S. Similarly, if SteamOS is too limiting, then you might be better off with a Windows 11 handheld like the first Legion Go S. The Lenovo Legion Go S with SteamOS heralds a brighter future for gaming handhelds and is a fantastic device in its own right. If you’ve considered buying a handheld but didn’t know which one to get, this is the one for you.

90% Lenovo Legion Go S (Z1 Extreme, SteamOS) Review
Bron: IGN EN→NL
When the Lenovo Legion Go S first launched with Windows 11 back in February 2025, it was a bit of a joke. It was using the underpowered Z2 Go chip and the design made it way more difficult to navigate the operating system than it should have been. However, by swapping to a more powerful chipset and licensing SteamOS, Lenovo took a lemon and made it into one of the best handheld gaming PCs on the market, and a legitimate Steam Deck alternative.

83% Lenovo Go S With SteamOS Is the Steam Deck I'd Buy Today
Bron: CNet EN→NL
It's unfair to compare a new device with one that's a couple of years old, but Valve's OG Steam Deck and Steam Deck OLED are starting to feel a bit old compared with shiny new devices. As the first of what I hope is a decent-size field of new SteamOS-running hardware, I think Lenovo has gotten a lot of things right that I even found too quirky on Valve's device when I first got it, though. The SteamOS model of the Lenovo Go S does dole out its own share of sadness, especially given the $830 price tag of the top-end model I tested -- the IPS, non-HDR display instead of OLED is my biggest complaint -- but the bigger screen, better controls and device layout compensate a lot.
