Lenovo Legion Go S vs. Steam Deck OLED: here’s what we know so far
- Lenovo's Legion Go S is a new handheld gaming device, which is gunning for Steam Deck's position through its upgraded display, processor, and affordable price tag. The entry-level model of the Legion Go S starts at $500, which undercuts the Steam Deck OLED by $50. Additionally, the device is expected to be faster than Steam Deck due to its newer CPU and GPU and increased memory capacity. Although the new Legion Go screen is bigger and brighter than the Steam Deck's, its display is an LCD and doesn't have the rich depth of contrast and colour of the OLED panel of Steam Deck.
- The device's CPU and GPU specifications are quite dramatic, with Z1, the high-end configuration of Legion Go S, with 8 Zen 4 cores/16 threads looking overpowered compared to the Steam Deck. The last wrinkle to consider is that reportedly, there is no Z2-based Steam Deck 2 currently in the works. The Legion Go S will come with a choice between Windows or SteamOS. The new Legion Go S is significantly more comfortable in hand as compared to the original Legion Go, however, it still not as comfortable as the Steam Deck.
- The Legion Go S has a thinner profile and sleak design, and its miniature touchpad is perfectly usable. As per the experts, the added clarity, responsiveness and higher frame rate of the Legion Go S could give it a slight advantage in competitive games, but there won't be a lot in it when you factor in OLED's faster pixel response time. The new Legion Go S is likely to be pick due to its newer specs, options, and competitive price, however, Steam Deck's price problem could make it relevant in the fight for handheld gaming's crown.
