I'm pretty much a Xbox gamer. Rarely play PC. I'm interested in a handheld, would you go with the upcoming ally for Xbox or whatever the Lenovo one is called? I'm not very techy, just want something that's going to play games for at least the next 5 years. Something with great battery life.

The SteamOS-based Lenovo Go S is really neat. Picked one up a month ago, and kind of swear by it now.

It's a terrible value. Better off with regular Legion Go for a lot less money.

Sadly, I don't think the regular one comes in a SteamOS version, which I would absolutely recommend over Windows when it comes to handheld gaming.
