We’ve had the Lenovo Legion Go in our sights for a couple of weeks now. With its beautiful 8.8” QHD display powered by the Ryzen Z1 Extreme, innovative controls, and whispers of a repairable design, we genuinely thought that the Steam Deck may have finally met its match. Then out of nowhere, Valve released an upgraded Steam Deck with an OLED panel, a new 6-nanometer processor, and a bunch of repairability upgrades! We couldn’t resist. We might have two repairability heavyweights in the teardown lab and we’re going to pit them against each other to see who's more likely to walk away after a good beating.
