Can I get a sanity check on something?
If you're reviewing a new handheld gaming device like the Legion Go S, would you benchmark it against other handhelds like the Steam Deck and ROG Ally, or, say, a bunch of expensive gaming laptops instead?

Because that's what PC World did, and I'm equal parts baffled and angry.

Bar chart comparing average FPS in Metro Exodus 1080p Extreme, no RT mode for five different laptops. The Alienware m16R2 achieves the highest FPS at 50, and the Lenovo Legion Go 5 scores the lowest at 8.

@killyourfm wowzers. Talk about a lack of journalistic integrity. Why would they compare it against a completely different product category?

@gardiner_bryant *SHRUGS* I honestly don't know man. I'm gobsmacked, and I use that word sparingly.

@gardiner_bryant Also, I'm not selectively picking on the review. EVERY benchmark, including battery and PCMark tests, uses the same laptops.
