  They should rename it then! The Steam OS version should be “FTW” 👍

  This looks just like the OG PlayStation Portable (PSP). I need this.

    I feel the same except it’s a lot of money. Line $800.00 US, I think.

      It looks like it’s trying to be a dual-purpose handheld, a controller with a laptop inside. 32GB of RAM is for running multiple programs simultaneously, and with their special dock connector to get it going with a monitor and other peripherals, I would guess they are targeting people who want to replace their setup with something smaller than a traditional gaming laptop.

      Their previous offerings have been laptops with controllers attached, but given the popularity of handhelds, this seems like the logical move for them to stay relevant in the market. It’s niche, but it will probably attract some.

  Using mine with Manjaro, hoping the hardware setting stuff comes to linux.

    Try ChimeraOS. It’s close to a perfect replica of the Steam Deck experience, and works great on my GPD device.
