Lenovo Legion Go S with Steam OS fixes so much, but can it beat a Steam Deck?
Lenovo Legion Go S - Powered By Steam OS The Lenovo Legion Go S with Steam OS is light years ahead of its Windows-powered counterpart. Not only does Steam OS fix a lot of Windows' problems, but it also drops the price by $130. This makes the Legion Go S with Steam OS a viable competitor to the Steam Deck. It's well worth a look if you prioritize a large display, variable refresh rates, and offset sticks. When I reviewed the Lenovo Legion Go S — the one powered by Windows 11 — I did something I rarely ever do: I told readers not to buy it. No matter how I approached the product, I couldn't recommend it to anyone due to the ubiquitous availability of better, cheaper gaming handhelds. In that review, I mentioned that I was excited to try the second version of the product, the one powered by the Linux-based Steam OS — the same operating system that powers Valve's Steam Deck. Well, Lenovo was kind enough to send me a test unit of the Lenovo Legion Go S with Steam OS, and I'm excited to tell you all about it. Given that this product's hardware is exactly the same as the Windows variant (other than the change in button names and case color), I won't spend time re-explaining everything. If you need to catch up on what this product offers from a hardware perspective, read my Legion Go S review first. My colleague Hadlee Simons' hands-on with the Steam OS version at CES 2025 is also worth a read (anything he writes is). With that in mind, I will split this review into two sections: the first covering what Steam OS fixes, and the second explaining what Steam OS couldn't change. What Steam OS fixes for the Legion Go S C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The most significant and positive thing Steam OS does for the Legion Go S is simplify the experience. When you power up the Steam OS version of the Legion Go S, you're not greeted with any familiar Windows tropes. You don't need to log in with your Microsoft account or tell it your preferred keyboard layout. You never see a desktop interface. You do need to go through an initial setup procedure, obviously, but you can navigate through every step with the controller and a smartphone for scanning QR codes — something that can't be done with Windows. From the time you first boot up the Legion Go S with Steam OS, you immediately understand how this is better than Windows. Essentially, Steam OS is an operating system built for this particular form factor, whereas Windows is decidedly not (or at least until we know if the Xbox experience on the ROG Xbox Ally finally fixes things). That alone makes the experience using the Legion Go S with Steam OS much, much better than its Windows counterpart. Even when a wrench is thrown into the works, Steam OS handles it with grace. For example, if you want to play Red Dead Redemption on the Legion Go S, you must use Rockstar Games' stupid (and useless!) launcher. This launcher lacks controller support, which Valve cannot change. So, what Steam OS does in response is warn you that the Rockstar Games launcher lacks controller support and instructs you to use the touch screen instead. It's not perfect, but it's a simple, elegant way of informing the user how best to navigate through this process, since their intuitive reaction — to use the sticks and buttons — will prove ineffective. Steam OS is also better at the seemingly minor actions one takes when using a large-screen gaming handheld. When you want to stop playing, you just tap the power button. The screen goes dark, and you can put the machine down. You can leave it like that, unplugged, for hours (or even days), and then pick it up, tap the power button, and continue right where you left off. The Windows model doesn't do this nearly as smoothly, and Windows' idle state drains way too much battery for that to be a good idea anyway. For the record, I did this overnight with the Steam OS model, and the battery level only dropped by 3%. At that rate, I could have left it alone for over a week and not needed to be concerned at all. It's astonishing how much better Steam OS is in an idle state when compared to Windows. One interesting thing Steam OS does is nerf the teeny, tiny trackpad on the Legion Go S. In my review for the Windows model, I lamented how small and useless the trackpad is on this machine (it's still there on the Steam OS version — the small square under the right stick). In all my time with the Steam OS version, though, I never once got the trackpad to work. Even when I was setting up the Rockstar Games launcher, which is built around keyboard and mouse input, the trackpad didn't function. I feel like Valve was as perplexed with this 'feature' as the rest of the world, and just decided to nerf it rather than instruct users to touch it. In fact, Steam OS didn't let me use the trackpad even when I played games that support mouse input. I realize this is a weird way to approach the issue of the trackpad being so horrible, but honestly, I didn't mind. After a few hours, I simply forgot it existed. Steam OS also makes it easier to tweak your settings to milk the most out of your games. In most cases, though, you don't need to do this. This is because Valve has pre-configured Steam OS to change in-game settings to work best with gaming handhelds automatically. For example, all in-game settings are maxed out when I fire up my latest save in Horizon Forbidden West on my custom gaming rig with an RTX 4090 inside. When I played Forbidden West on the Legion Go S, though, Steam OS automatically switched to the 'Low' graphics quality preset and tweaked the display settings appropriately. It just worked. Steam OS does a lot of the legwork for you when it comes to making sure your games play well. If you want to get more granular with your settings, Steam OS supports that and makes it incredibly easy. You can tweak performance settings on a universal or per-game basis by hitting the Quick Access Button (signified by three dots and located at the upper right, above the Menu/Start button). This includes enabling a variable refresh rate (something no version of the Steam Deck offers), limiting the thermal design power (TDP), changing scaling levels, and much more. You can also show performance stats while you play, and Steam OS lets you choose how much of this information you see. C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Granted, the Windows version of the Legion Go S offered some of these features through Lenovo's own apps and widgets. However, in Windows, they weren't as easily accessible and not nearly as granular. Also, you don't need to use these on the Steam OS version. Like I said, the operating system does a great job of pre-configuring the system for each game you launch. But if you want to get nitty gritty to bring out the best performance you can get (or do the opposite to preserve as much battery life as possible), you can easily do that. Speaking of battery life, this is also nominally better with Steam OS. I don't have any numbers to share, but with this model, I didn't reach for the charger nearly as much as I did with the Windows version. This makes a ton of sense when you remember that all the useless things Windows does in the background, Steam OS doesn't do. I don't want there to be any misconceptions here, though: if you're playing a graphically demanding AAA game, battery life on the Steam OS version is going to be very similar to the Windows version — maybe 90-120 minutes of gameplay at a full charge. But when the device is just idling or you're doing things like tweaking settings, buying games, or reading game news, battery life is tangibly better. One of the things Steam OS does better than Windows is to cost nothing. Thanks, open-source licensing! The most significant thing Steam OS fixes, though, is the price. Without Windows on board, the Steam OS version of the Legion Go S drops by a whopping $130 to $599. This alone makes it much more of an appealing product when compared to the Windows model, which inexplicably starts at $729. For the sake of comparison, the Steam Deck OLED with 512GB of storage costs $549. While this is all great news, Steam OS is just software. It can't change the hardware aspects of the Legion Go S. Steam OS also comes with its own drawbacks. This brings me to the next section of this review. What Steam OS can't fix C. Scott Brown / Android Authority While Steam OS is fast, smooth, elegant, and feature-rich, it is, at its core, not as good as Windows for wide game support. This is because many games available through Steam rely on Windows features to function properly. Since Steam OS is based on Linux and uses Proton as a compatibility layer, this leaves a swathe of very popular games unplayable natively on the Legion Go S, including Fortnite, many EA Sports games, Reign of Kings, and more. To be clear, that doesn't mean low framerates or glitchy interfaces — that means the games literally will not launch. Ultimately, this is the ace in the hole that the Windows version of the Legion Go S has. You'll need to sacrifice game support with Steam OS. Heavy hitters like Fortnite won't work without Windows. Granted, there are ways around this limitation via Linux applications such as Heroic Game Launcher, which plays nicely with third-party game stores like Epic Games Stores, GOG Galaxy, and more. Game streaming is another good option, either from a cloud service like Xbox Game Pass or from your own Windows computer with something like Moonlight. Still, almost everything on Steam that isn't a VR-only title will launch on a Windows handheld without any tinkering or workarounds. This is something Steam OS cannot claim, as Windows restrictions, Proton incompatibilities, and occasionally anti-cheat software do mean not everything will run well or at all. If there's a particular game you want to play, I'd recommend you check ProtonDB to see what the status is. Steam OS also has no effect on the hardware limitations of the Legion Go S. I've already talked about how Valve nerfed the teeny trackpad, but it can't change all the other problems Lenovo introduced with this design. The whole device is still too heavy, for example. The button placement is still questionable, especially the Steam and Quick Access buttons being directly above Start and Select (I hit the wrong buttons many times during my testing). The microSD card slot is still on the bottom of the device, which could be problematic for people who like to dock their handhelds. The two USB-C ports are still right next to each other, making it tricky to plug in two things at the same time. These are all deficiencies I pointed out in my review of the Windows model, and they're still problems on the Steam OS version. Granted, no single one of these compromises is a deal-breaker. When you put all of them together, though, it does feel like the device is still not much better than a Steam Deck, which is $50 cheaper than Lenovo's offering. This, ultimately, is the biggest hurdle facing this product. Lenovo Legion Go S with Steam OS review verdict: A personal choice C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The Lenovo Legion Go S with Steam OS ($499.99 at Manufacturer site) is the first third-party product to run the operating system. That being the case means the only logical competitor to the Legion Go S is Valve's own Steam Deck, specifically the 512GB OLED model ($549 at Manufacturer site). So what exactly are you getting from Lenovo that you're not getting from Valve? The Legion Go S has the same operating system as a Steam Deck at a very similar price. It all comes down to individual preferences after that. The most significant thing is the display. The Legion Go S has an 8-inch 1,920 x 1,200 LCD panel, which dwarfs the Steam Deck's 7.4-inch 1,280 x 800 OLED. Yes, OLED is superior to LCD, but resolution and size make a big difference, too. Likewise, the Legion Go S has a faster refresh rate at 120Hz (the Steam Deck taps out at 90Hz). Additionally, the Lenovo handheld supports variable refresh rates, which the Steam Deck does not. In other words, just because the Steam Deck has OLED and the Legion Go S doesn't, shouldn't be the deciding factor on which is better. Lenovo's display is terrific, regardless of the panel type. Another thing the Legion Go S has over the Steam Deck is processing power. On paper, the AMD Ryzen Z2 Go in the Legion Go S isn't too much better than the Steam Deck's AMD Zen 2. However, the Z2 Go is capable of hitting much higher power draw than the Zen 2 — 28W vs 15W, respectively. This means that you can, theoretically, milk more frames from the Legion Go S than you can from the Steam Deck at the expense of battery life (and sweaty palms). You'll need to be comfortable tweaking settings, both in-game and on the handheld itself, but if you care enough to do so, the Legion Go S should be superior regarding performance. Also, keep in mind that a second version of the Legion Go S with Steam OS is on the way, and it will have the Ryzen Z1 Extreme under the hood — a CPU that will absolutely destroy the Z2 Go and the Zen 2. However, that model will cost $899 (!!!), so buyer beware. If you prefer a larger display, VRR support, offset sticks, and the potential for eking out more frames, maybe the Legion Go S is what you're looking for. Outside of these two major differences, there are minor ones as well. The Legion Go S has offset sticks, for example, something that many players prefer. There's also an eight-way D-Pad on the Legion Go S, which could give you an edge in fighting games over the four-way D-Pad on the Steam Deck. Really, even with the $50 difference in price taken into account, choosing between the Legion Go S with Steam OS and the Steam Deck OLED is a matter of taste. You need to decide what hardware features you prefer and then go with the model that makes the most sense for you. The bottom line here, though, is that this is a far cry from the Lenovo Legion Go S with Windows. When you combined Windows' cumbersome, battery-draining design with the hardware deficiencies of the Legion Go S and its way-too-high price, you had a product I couldn't recommend to anyone. The Steam OS version, though, is a fine choice for anyone who really likes the Steam Deck but wishes that it catered a bit more to their own play style and priorities. Lenovo Legion Go S - Powered By Steam OS Native Steam OS integration • Large display • Great price MSRP: $599.99 The first true Steam Deck competitor. The Legion Go S with Steam OS is the first gaming handheld to feature the same operating system as the category-defining Steam Deck.

SwitchBot just launched a household robot that'll be your vacuum, air purifier and security camera in one
SwitchBot's whole schtick is to take simple home appliances and make them smarter. And while we haven't tested many of its products (we last reviewed the SwitchBot Smart Lock back in 2022), the company's latest drop is seriously impressive. When we first laid eyes on the SwitchBot K20+ Pro at CES 2025, my colleague Mike called it "a Transformer" and branded it one of the best smart home gadgets of the entire show. Why? Well, while there was a lot of robot vacuums on display at CES 2025, none offered the versatility of the K20+ Pro. Not only can this robot vacuum, well, vacuum, but it can also use a range of additional accessories to transform it into a security camera, air purifier, mobile fan, smart delivery system and more. And now, the SwitchBot K20+ Pro has launched in both the U.S. and U.K. for $699.99/£599.99 — though of course you'll have to pay extra for accessories. The SwitchBot K20+ Pro is a robot vacuum capable of a lot more than tidying floors. With a flexible platform, it can be transformed into a mobile sentry, smart delivery system, air purifier, mobile fan and more. While the base model will cost you $699.99, each additional accessory kit will cost you extra. At its core, the SwitchBot K20+ Pro is a robot vacuum that'll clean a variety of surfaces around your home and even reach those hard-to-access spots. Using 3D obstacle detection and LiDAR, it's programmed to move around your home with ease. But, what's even more impressive about the K20+ Pro is what it can become. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. While the base model will cost you $699.99, you can purchase different kits that'll level up your robovac. Take the Air Purifier Kit as one example. It'll remove dust, bacteria and pet hair while it navigates from room to room — cleaning up and purifying air as it goes. Or, you can add the Air Purifier Table on top. Then, you've suddenly got a smart delivery system that'll even bring you tea in bed, carrying up to 8KG/18lbs of weight. Or the Patrol Kit that turns your K20+ Pro into a mobile sentry kitted out with a high-res camera that'll keep an eye on your home for you, or your pets, issuing alerts when necessary. Or the Air Flow Kit for a mobile fan that'll activate when the room temperature rises to keep you cool wherever it goes. There's also the Adjustable Device Stand Kit, where you can mount your tablet onboard to follow you around. That one's not available yet, but SwitchBot says it's "coming soon." When it comes to the vacuum part of the SwitchBot K20+ Pro, all the technology for sweeping, mopping and vacuuming is underneath. So, an opportunity has been taken to use the flexible platform on top for bonus possibilities. To do this, the platform is equipped with multiple power ports and an easy-to-adjust bracket for customization. There's a specific point to mount a camera, charge your air purifier, and attach an adjustable display, while power for those is also on board. When it's equipped exactly how you want it, the K20+ Pro uses DToF (Direct Time of Flight) radar and advanced navigation to create a map of your home and work out the best route to get around. And it uses laser sensors to avoid obstacles as it goes. All this is operated via voice-control, compatible with Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri, as well as the SwitchBot PTC Plus app which the company say can operate the K20+ Pro and feels "like driving an RC car." I didn't even know I wanted a robot vacuum until now, but the idea of a multitasking robot that'll follow you around and cater to your needs feels like it puts the best robot vacuums on notice.

My Favorite Laptop for Travel Just Hit a New All-Time Low Price
Back in January at CES 2025, I knew the moment I saw the Asus Zenbook A14 that it would be my new favorite travel laptop. It boasts an incredible 32 hours (!) of battery life, a Snapdragon X Plus chipset, 16GB of RAM, 512GB of storage and an OLED display. It's also one of the lightest 14-inch laptops you can buy, weighing even less than Apple's MacBook Air. With all of that going for it, it's no wonder the Zenbook A14 ended up winning a CNET Editors' Choice Award and a Best of CES Award for best laptop. The single biggest downside at that time was the price. But I just spotted the Arm-powered laptop on sale at Best Buy for $250 off, bringing it down to a new all-time low price. My favorite version of this laptop, in the Zabriskie beige color, is now available for a discount of $250. As a result, the $1,000 laptop is going for just $750, no special codes needed. The first time the Asus Zenbook A14 went on sale was for Memorial Day, and even then it only saw a $200 discount. If you've been looking for a lightweight, midrange laptop, this sale is your chance to score one you'll love at its best price to date. Why I recommend the Asus Zenbook A14 Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET The Asus Zenbook A14 is one of the best laptops you can buy right now and there are three reasons it's become my go-to device. First, it offers a long battery life, and by long, I mean you can extend it up to two days without needing a charger. I can carry it in my travel backpack without worrying about the availability of a power outlet. In fact, the Snapdragon X variant is only the second laptop CNET has reviewed with a battery life of more than 24 hours, with the HP OmniBook X 14 lasting an hour longer. That brings me to the second reason I like using the Asus Zenbook A14: its OLED screen. The HP laptop lasted longer during CNET's test thanks to an LCD display, but the Zenbook doesn't compromise on its screen to deliver a stellar battery life. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. You get a 14-inch OLED panel with a 1,920x1,200-pixel resolution. It might not be as sharp as the 2.8K OLED screen on the Asus Zenbook S 14, but you won't find another laptop with this combo of 24-hour+ battery life and OLED display in this price range. I appreciate the OLED screen for its excellent contrast and deep black levels. In CNET's tests with a Spyder X colorimeter, it showed 100% coverage of the sRGB and P3 spaces and 97% of AdobeRGB. My only slight annoyance is the thick bezels, which make it a little less immersive than other Asus laptops. Third, the Asus Zenbook A14 is surprisingly lightweight. At just 2.4 pounds, it's the lightest Arm laptop you can buy. And Asus hasn't traded build quality for the lightweight form factor. Its Ceraluminum build is both rigid and lightweight, keeping the weight in check without making the laptop feel cheap or flimsy. Plus, it's scratch, smudge and fingerprint resistant. Things to keep in mind before you buy the Asus Zenbook A14 Prakhar Khanna/CNET Asus Zenbook A14's keyboard offers a satisfactory experience and the trackpad is reliable. The A14's Snapdragon X Plus variant (on sale) is more powerful than the Snapdragon X model, but it isn't built for power-intensive tasks. If you want to use power-hungry video editing tools, this laptop is not for you. The M4 MacBook Air might better serve you for this use. This Asus Zenbook A14 is for those who are always on the go and want an extra-long battery life without compromising on screen quality. It's a great laptop, particularly at this price -- and especially if you're looking for an ultralight, ultralong-running laptop for travel. If this isn't quite what you're looking for or you want to shop around a bit, it's worth checking out our running list of the best laptop deals happening now.
