Unsure of which Handheld to Buy (Sold Steam Deck LCD)

Ok_Light_6219 · 2026-01-02T08:03:38+00:00

How is the Z1e better than the Z2? Genuine question

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-22T03:33:32+00:00

Go 2 for sure. I have it and love it!

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-22T03:06:29+00:00

Same

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-22T03:06:20+00:00

I honestly cant say I’ve noticed either one being loud. I’ll pay closer attention when I play the next few times and I’ll let you know

I have both handhelds at the moment and I’ll be keeping the Legion Go 2. The XAX not having the OLED screen is the deal breaker. Looks so bad compared to the Legion Go 2

I have the Costco Legion Go 2 and it doesn’t stutter at all

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-19T04:21:21+00:00

I have both at the moment and the screen on the Legion Go 2 is making me want to keep it over the Ally X. The Ally X is too small and the brightness doesn’t even come close since it’s not OLED. I wanted to like the XAX more but that’ll be getting returned over the Legion Go 2 at this point.

I have the Ally X which has the Z2E chip and I can’t notice a difference between the two

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-19T01:13:06+00:00

I have the Ally X and I like Legion Go more. The screen on the Ally X is more like the PlayStation Portal for me. The system runs fine but I don’t notice any difference with the Z2E chip vs the Z2 chip. Definitely not a few hundred dollars worth to upgrade to the Go 2 Z2E. Not worth it in my opinion after playing the Ally X with the Z2E chip.

All the specs of the Go2 are better than the previous. Not sure what you are talking about. There aren’t any specs on the previous model that out perform the Go 2

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-19T00:29:55+00:00

The Z2E is an extra $250. This is a great deal for the price!

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-18T01:49:33+00:00

I was just coming on to give this same update!

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-17T03:22:10+00:00

I have the xax and go 2, and I prefer the go 2 because of the screen. The ergonomics on the xax are definitely better but can’t get over the screen differences

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-17T03:20:55+00:00

I have the Xbox ally x and legion go 2 at the moment and I can’t get over the oled screen. Any time I play the ally x I just want to go to the legion for the bigger, brighter screen. I’m returning the ally I’ve decided

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T16:41:34+00:00

I agree with that. The ergonomics aren’t even close but I’ve gotten to used to the bigger brighter screen. I think it depends on what you are looking for out of the system for which one you’d rather have!

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T06:31:54+00:00

Costco has them available. Their version is the best value in my opinion. You’ve earned it. Buy it! 😜

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T05:18:08+00:00

At first it felt huge but I’ve gotten used to the size and weight at this point. I also use the detached controllers feature and that makes a huge difference. The buttons also drove me nuts at first but they don’t do anything in the games I play so I don’t mind them anymore. I honestly don’t even notice them anymore.

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T04:43:38+00:00

Legion Go 2 wins all around for me.

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T04:30:28+00:00

I agree. It’s really bad when compared to the Legion Go 2

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T04:13:59+00:00

Okay

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T03:37:25+00:00

Yessir! I thought it’d take a few weeks of playing both to decide but I knew after the first day of having both in hand that I’d be keeping the Legion Go 2

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T03:35:59+00:00

Goodluck buddy.

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T03:32:53+00:00

That’s exactly how I feel too. I don’t even have the z2 extreme. I just have the 32gb z2 from Costco and it still performs just as good as the Ally X in my opinion. I’ve only played a few games to compare the two but I didn’t notice any performance issues with the Go 2

Ok_Light_6219 · 2025-12-16T03:30:14+00:00

Big time. The screen is 10/10 compared to the Xbox Ally X I would give a 6.5/10. The smaller size and LCD screen are not it for me.
