Anyone else mostly using their handheld to stream from a PC? Moonlight looks gorgeous on this display at full resolution.

Yep, all the triple A titles sit on the rig. I never thought I could stream at 4k 120hz, but here we are in the future, lol.

My mind was properly blown the first time I saw a game looking this good over a stream, with virtually no lag. We are indeed living the future lol

Yes, this is my main use case for the go. Was it the most feasible option? No, but I like that it has integrated controls and the screen is lovely.

That's also my thought process. There are cheaper options for streaming only, but I love the screen and controls. Not to mention the whole "it can also run games" part that's also a little interesting haha

I'm new to the LeGo (getting delivered tomorrow) how do you stream games like this? Seems ideal for home use!

Assuming you have a gaming PC, check out Moonlight (client app for the handheld) and Sunshine (streaming server for you PC). It's what I'm using for my setup. Works incredibly well and it's free.

There's also Chiaki for streaming from a PS5 (basically turns the Legion Go into a PS Portal).

Highly recommend your PC to be wired over Ethernet in any case though. Clients can use Wi-Fi just fine.

Nope because I don't have a decent pc 😂, my legion is the decent pc.

This is the way. I have been using Moonlight Sunshine to stream at 1600p 144fps and can’t complain! Do you use AV1 or HEVC for encoding and decoding?
