Now you can play Steam games like Clair Obscur, Hades, Silksong, or Ball x Pit on a device that&#8217;s not much bigger than a Switch console. For Cyber Monday, select SteamOS gaming handhelds &#8211; including the Steam Deck &#8211; are on sale. One is even priced a bit lower than on Black Friday with the new Cyber Monda deals. SteamOS is more intuitive to use on a handheld than Windows and I would recommend it for anyone who wants an easy, hassle-free experience that plays most games with minimal tinkering and little technical know-how.<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">Lenovo Legion Go S Z1 Extreme SteamOS Edition<\/h2>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em><strong>New lower Cyber Monday price at Lenovo!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<div catalogid=\"3b683b44-8c8d-4c8c-8419-6f4e0413b4f4\" id=\"233031\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\">\n<div data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\">\n<div id=\"233031\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"Lenovo Legion Go S 8&quot; 120Hz AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme SteamOS Handheld Gaming PC (32GB\/1TB)\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/06\/30\/lenovolegiongos-1751311217785.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/06\/30\/lenovolegiongos-1751311217785.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/06\/30\/lenovolegiongos-1751311217785.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Lenovo Legion Go S 8&#8243; 120Hz AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme SteamOS Handheld Gaming PC (32GB\/1TB)<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Save up to $270 off the higher-end Legion Go S model. Lenovo has it slightly cheaper than Best Buy thanks to two stackable coupon codes &#8220;<strong>BOPIS<\/strong>&#8221; and <strong>&#8220;LENOVOHOLIDEAL&#8221;<\/strong>. Even if you buy it from Lenovo, you still have the option to choose in-store pickup at your local Best Buy retail store.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">This particular Lenovo Legion Go S is equipped with the more powerful AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, 32GB of RAM, 512GB storage capacity, and it runs off SteamOS instead of Windows. The Z1 Extreme is much more powerful than the APU found in the Steam Deck and as such, it will outperform the Steam Deck in pretty much any situation. Graphics also look sharper with more fluid movement, thanks to a bigger 8&#8243; 1200p display with a higher 120Hz refresh rate. The Legion Go S also supports a much higher maximum charging rate (up to 100W vs 40W for the Steam Deck). This deal prices the Legion Go S on par with the highest end Steam Deck, but it&#8217;s superior in almost every way.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Check out Jacqueline&#8217;s 9\/10 review of the Legion Go S (Z1 Extreme, SteamOS model), in which she concludes that it is one of the &#8220;best handheld gaming PCs on the market, and a legitimate Steam Deck alternative.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">Lenovo Legion Go S Z2 Go SteamOS Edition<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div catalogid=\"3b683b44-8c8d-4c8c-8419-6f4e0413b4f4\" id=\"223855\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\">\n<div data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\">\n<div id=\"223855\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"Lenovo Legion Go S 8&quot; 120Hz AMD Ryzen Z2 Go SteamOS Handheld Gaming PC (16GB\/512GB)\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/06\/30\/lenovolegiongos-1751311217785.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/06\/30\/lenovolegiongos-1751311217785.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/06\/30\/lenovolegiongos-1751311217785.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Lenovo Legion Go S 8&#8243; 120Hz AMD Ryzen Z2 Go SteamOS Handheld Gaming PC (16GB\/512GB)<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Also on sale is the Legion Go S Z2 Go Edition, which is currently $449.99 after a $200 discount. Despite the fact that the AMD Ryzen Z2 Go is a 2nd gen chip, it&#8217;s actually less powerful than the Z1 Extreme. Fortunately, it&#8217;s <em>still <\/em>more powerful than the Steam Deck&#8217;s APU and you should expect slightly better performance out of it, especially if you knock the resolution down to 1280&#215;800. Since a Steam Deck with equivalent specs will still cost you $549, this is a much better value: you get more features and pay less money.<\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\">Xbox Ally Z2 A Windows Edition<\/h2>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em><strong>Free Xbox controller included<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div catalogid=\"3b683b44-8c8d-4c8c-8419-6f4e0413b4f4\" id=\"233077\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\">\n<div data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\">\n<div id=\"233077\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"Xbox Ally 7&quot; 120Hz AMD Ryzen Z2 A Windows Gaming Handheld PC (16GB\/512GB)\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/12\/01\/xboxallyxwhite-1764579687119.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/12\/01\/xboxallyxwhite-1764579687119.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2025\/12\/01\/xboxallyxwhite-1764579687119.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"product-badge jsx-3056253127 jsx-1233459104\">\n<p>Free Xbox Wireless Controller<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">Xbox Ally 7&#8243; 120Hz AMD Ryzen Z2 A Windows Gaming Handheld PC (16GB\/512GB)<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>0<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The Xbox Ally was released last month, with the AMD Ryzen Z2 A model retailing for $599.99.

If you&#8217;re pinching pennies, you won&#8217;t find a less expensive gaming handheld PC. Every Steam Deck is equipped with the same processor, so the base model will still run games just as smoothly as the highest end $650 system. You can also upgrade the storage yourself with some technical know-how.<\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\">\n<aside class=\"card jsx-1339469126 jsx-1178573261 box jsx-2627838217\" data-cy=\"aside\">\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\">How to Follow IGN Deals Recommendations<\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The IGN Deals team has over 30 years of combined experience finding the best discounts and preorders available online.
