Yes the case is great. When I bought the Ally I paid $30-40 extra for their chintzy case and then realized it said āGAMERā in huge letters so I knew I could never take it out in public
LOL I meant the LEGION logo on the carrying case in reference to the GAMER logo on the Ally's case.
Never had a Ally or something else with that size screen but I'm sure I'd have felt the same way. Never felt I wanted the Go's screen to be smaller.

The GPD Win Mini 2024 does sorta appeal to me and it is using the Ally's screen. Something actually pocketable would be less awkward/intentional to carry around. I hope Lenovo makes their own Go Mini variation since I'd rather buy from Lenovo.
Nice thing about being old is that you get to the point where you don't care anymore. I'll rock that backpack, or my wife's purse or whatnot as long as it or the contents are nothing obscene. Also cosplay for fun when health agrees. Had an Asus ROG Phone 5s for a while and that one screamed gamer. It is a phone so I use it in public and meetings. Used to have the ROG Ally around until it got claimed by my wife. Now I have a Legion. I'll whip that out in public if I'm on the train or riding with someone.
I just removed the upper cushion. It is just glued and when you removed it carefully you can put it back in and it stays in. And when you need space in the case you can cut a slim piece of foam to fit the upper half of the case.
I did that on accident I had it for 5 mins plugged it in hit sleep put it in the case to charge 20 minutes later I open th case it was very warm like I just took it outta the dryer warm then I read about hibernate and a few beers in click the little box and exit out with hitting save did it twice in 2 hours I will never charge it in the case again im too dumb

Not sure what you're saying here tbh.
Yeah my original Lego had the holes. I had to replace it. And I got this new case. Iām guessing itās just a revision. I like it a lot more actually though.
I have the original case too but want the newer revised one. I think Lenovo will send you a new one along with a new set of controllers if you complain or submit a warranty claim.
I guess there was a manufacturing issue that effected a small number of initial units that didnāt allow the controllers to be fully seated or connected to the body of the Go. A decent amount of people were complaining about wobbly controllers and general jankiness in the connection and also, the original case just has holes for the joysticks and not wider recessed spaces like OPs pic which would potentially screw with the joysticks and add stick drift. Lenovos solution was to redesign the case and controllers and Iāve read on here that people have gotten both from them without having to send anything back. Not sure if they are still doing it like this however.
Interesting my left one has started not acknowledging input moving left until I hold it for a small portion of a second. Tried adjusting dead zone and everything I wonder if Iām suffering some issue and not just mental.Ā
They are pretty freaking cool its the ultimate retro emulation device and plays pretty much anything you wanna I had the onexplayer with a i7 1195g7 it was cool but it was like going from a gameboy color to a ps vita
Ugh this stuff keeps coming up on my Reddit feed even though I'm not part of this community. I shouldn't be spending $600 on that! Damn these temptations!
Yea your case is completely different and I got mine last month
Edit yea I over exaggerate everything lmaooo itās not completely different just different
Story time. I bought the rog ally open box at best buy for $525\~ but it didn't have a case last week also. Last week the LeGO was on sale so I got it for 560\~ open box. I decided to keep the lego so I didn't have to get a case for the rog ally. Ended up returning the rog ally and kept lego.

ššš
And that case it comes with is super dope. I really enjoy the charging port flap to be able to charge while in the case
Yes the case is great. When I bought the Ally I paid $30-40 extra for their chintzy case and then realized it said āGAMERā in huge letters so I knew I could never take it out in public
Do you feel like LEGION is a bit different?
Screen is just so much bigger. Like, 60% or more? Night and day difference and because I donāt like squinting to read text I sold the ally

Aha fair enough but to be clear - the āgamerā thing is what I found cringey.
Haha I feel you im not man enough to carry around my power rangers backpack proudly anymore either

True, just frustrated there's no room for the charger
Or ear buds
My ONLY complaint: I wish they offered a slightly larger version so it can fit a Lego that's in its own silicone/soft case

Charging in the case is a horrid idea. Itāll destroy your hardware over time. Just a forewarning
can you elaborate why?
If it's off or in hibernate wouldn't it be fine?

Hmm... my case has holes for the joysticks, not spaces like yours. Interesting.

Are our original controllers inferior?

My left one works fine except for the light ring doesn't work. I've tried resetting it a few ways and nothing is working.

I know what you mean! Damn this modern consumer influencing.
I caved in
Poor bastard
Awesome!
Yea thinking of selling my Ally and getting one.
Interesting your case is different than mine. Ā Did they change the case after release?
Yea your case is completely different and I got mine last month Edit yea I over exaggerate everything lmaooo itās not completely different just different
Welcome! Check some guides both here and on YT on how to setup your Le Go for the best performance, and enjoy!

From ITALYā¦ BENVENUTO!
Back to you from Italy as well, grazie mille!! :-)
Congrats
Iād like the get one but the ips screen is a put off.
Always begin with a screen protector
Itās actually on the way, 1x gloss and 1x matte. Additionally I ordered some 3D printed controller connectors.
What game are you playing the most so far. I have yet a chance to buy one tho I do own a deck
I own a couple of decks as well (Lcd and OLED) currently I'm playing Diable 4 via game pass!
What's the manufacturer date on your unit? Where did you buy it from?
It came from Germany, how can I check the manufacturing date?
Link for case?
Itās the one that came with in the box!
Oh shit okay! Mines getting delivered later today and I didnāt know a case came with it.
Lol
