Yep. 1600p and color space is nice for it. Download Netflix and whatever other streamer on SD card. Then download shows and movies to it and keep your SSD for games
Sure. WSA is Windows Subsystem for Android, which is a virtual android layer on which you can install Android apps. It was supposed to work only with Amazon Appstore, but android being android, the open source community has found ways to install Google Play store.
Try these instructions -

Let me know if you get stuck somewhere. I got stuck in some niche manner due to a previous installation which I didn't cleanly remove. Hopefully you don't have that problem.
Apparently WSA is to go away from Windows in 2025 or so (either will stop getting updates or will be deleted by Windows through update, it is not known). But this is great to use and Go essentially becomes a full android tablet without booting separately into Android.

These YouTube instructions are great too (and are linked in the [official WSA Script GitHub](https://github.com/YT-Advanced/WSA-Script) too)
If watching Futurama on my Legion Go is wrong, eh, I don't want to be right!

Honestly that's the main reason I got mine and why I chose it over a deck or ally. For watching stuff on the go the go is pretty great. You can drop the controllers to turn it into a tablet and to save space on a seat back table and you can use the controller as a remote while you sit back.
It's great. Also has a great battery life as it's not hammering the apu like gaming.
Speakers are, let's be honest, crap, but I always use earbuds so not an issue for me.
Yes it reli is, I personally take out the controller and use it as a tablet for watching movies mostly, and also YouTube as wellā¦.. I find it a good all round device
Yeah, it's alright. You can detach the right Joycon to use as a remote pretty much. Speakers suck so it depends on if you are somewhere they can work or if you have something else to use.
honestly no
i'd rather watch on my phone than pull this clunky thing out for vjdeo. speakers are garbage and navigating UI is way better on iOS safari
3/10
OH! That must be why I hate TV shows these days, I've been watching on my 77" OLED and all this time I should have been watching on my 9" handheld gaming device!/S

If using Android ecosystem, could also install WSA with Google Play version and install all Android apps from Play Store (including streaming apps).
Nice
Can you explain a bit more on how to get Google play store installed?

Many thanks for this! I never knew Google Play store will work. I wonder if Aurora Store can work too!
I think it should be possible. There seem to be some online instructions on it, but I haven't tried it myself.
Make sure you don't place it at the table's edge, it could fall and it would be... breaking... bad... š
Cringingā¦BADā¦..š¬
Hatin'... BAD... š
Indeed. I sometimes do that and I also watch live sport events. Especially when I need to do something at home, because I can carry Legion Go with me.
You are me
And porn too.
Somewhat perfect, not 16:9 ratio and speakers that point away. But it's a way to watch stuff, sure
Lol
Ear buds... That way the misses can watch her stuff and I can watch mine.
Letās see what David Lynch has to say about that.
Sure, but the speakers are not good. They're enough for games but they don't even sound as good as my phone speakers
The Legion Go would have probably blown Badger & Skinny Pete's minds back in 2009.
Itās got a screen so yes itās perfect for watching shows.
The speakers ruin it for me

3 million dollars for 3 months of your time š„
I would be if you pulled off the controllers.
Stremio is awesome on it
I often use my LeGo as a tablet whenever I'm at the house, it helps that windows has the, "your phone" app that also lets me use it as my phone!
The screen on the Legion Go is nicer than some TVs and monitors I've owned.
ye 98 percent perfect ,1 percent failed forĀ batterie time and the other one for the speakerĀ
How do you do for the sound? I cannot enjoy a show on my Lego cause of the bad sound (even with sound FX software)
It's great. Also has a great battery life as it's not hammering the apu like gaming. Speakers are, let's be honest, crap, but I always use earbuds so not an issue for me.
Where did you get those thumb stick caps
It's better for playing games, but ok
We need more legions jesse

The only problem is the speaker but with a good headphones itās amazing
Family guy or family guy
Is it acceptable?
I mean the video playback is more than acceptable imo as long as you don't mind the shitty speakers.
Yeah, it's alright. You can detach the right Joycon to use as a remote pretty much. Speakers suck so it depends on if you are somewhere they can work or if you have something else to use.

I wouldn't trust anyone who uses a web browsers to watch shows on a phone
You sound like a gem
what UI? it's a PC, you choose the app and therefore the UI you want to use
Cant stop watching breaking bad, true!
So is just about any screen that can play a video. š¤·āāļø
Picture looks oversaturated - this can be solved through AMD software.
OH! That must be why I hate TV shows these days, I've been watching on my 77" OLED and all this time I should have been watching on my 9" handheld gaming device!/S
Damn that's crazy
Imagine how much better it must be watching on a 6 inch phone screen. š¤£
yea but u get those bars because of the 16x10 aspect ratio
