Clever Use of Space: Tear-Down of Lenovo Legion & Cooling Comparison vs. Ally, Deck (Disassembly)

Episode Title: "Clever Use of Space: Tear-Down of Lenovo Legion & Cooling Comparison vs. Ally, Deck (Disassembly)"
Content: Sponsor: Arctic Liquid Freezer III on Amazon - https://geni.us/5N1BRr9 Following up our Lenovo Legion Go review, now we're tearing down the device to compare some of the internals (like the heatsink) to the ASUS ROG Ally and Steam Deck devices. The Legion Go was overall impressive for design, despite having some downsides, and particularly deviated in the additional thickness of the unit. This largely aligns with the choice to use separable controllers, which take away some of the horizontal area that internal components can spread to. As a result, the cooling solution is significantly different in some ways from the Ally. We've found all of these devices relatively easy to disassemble thus far.
