Handheld Resolution and 16:10 Guide
Handheld and 16:10 questions should answer what is known, what is intentional, and what players should record when reporting black bars or scaling.
Run checklist
- The useful current search terms are 16:10, aspect ratio, black bars, Legion Go, SteamOS, Steam Deck, handheld, and resolution settings.
- A recent public thread describes a Legion Go 2 on SteamOS 3.9 forcing 1920x1200 while the game still presents a 16:9 play area.
- The visible-map explanation matters: changing aspect ratio can reveal more terrain, affect gameplay information, and change performance assumptions.
- When reporting a display issue, include device, OS build, runtime, forced resolution, in-game screenshot or device photo, and whether the issue is black bars, stretching, UI clipping, or stutter.
- For build advice on handheld sessions, prefer short safe routes with food, movement, and one damage plan instead of long risky challenge attempts.
