How to Decide
The Lenovo Legion Go S is a handheld Windows gaming PC prized for its 8‑inch 120 Hz IPS display and AMD Ryzen Z2 Go processor, and it’s primarily used by portable PC gamers. The alternatives split into a few clear camps: Aya Neo leans on a larger 15.6‑inch 1080p 120 Hz screen for a more expansive view; Steam Deck OLED emphasizes a SteamOS/Linux ecosystem with Proton compatibility and open‑hardware design; ASUS ROG Ally X is distinguished by an 80 Wh battery that promises much longer play sessions; OneXPlayer stands out with an Intel Core i7‑12700H CPU paired with a vivid 8‑inch 1080p OLED panel.
When weighing handheld gaming PCs against the Legion Go S, focus on (1) display characteristics – size, resolution and refresh rate, which differ from 8‑inch IPS to 15.6‑inch LCD or OLED panels; (2) CPU/GPU performance – AMD Ryzen Z2 Go versus Ryzen Z1 Extreme, Ryzen 7 5800U or Intel i7‑12700H, which impacts game settings and frame rates; (3) battery capacity – ranging from the Legion’s modest battery to the Ally X’s 80 Wh pack and OneXPlayer’s 48 Wh, affecting session length; (4) operating system ecosystem – pure Windows 11 on most devices versus SteamOS with Proton on the Deck, influencing game compatibility and software flexibility; and (5) storage options – built‑in SSD size and expandability, which vary across the models.
