So the dual trackpads are interesting. I use my right trackpad on my Steam Deck all the time for more mouse centric games. I appriciate that ZOTAC included them, but the execution is key here.

Personally, I have two steam decks in my house and I'm extremely satisfies with them. I dont think a new handheld will make me switch until we get another generational improvemnt in terms of battery or power.

I love that the market has so many options! Steam, Asus, Lenovo, MSI, Zotac, AYANEO, AYN, GPDWin, or even the chaper linux retro consoles! its fucking awesome. In a few years we'll see who really sticks with it, but for now, we're in a little handheld revolution. Enjoy it while we can.

They must have been reading the comments to every other handheld. Every time a new one is announced, the Steam Deck's trackpads are mentioned as a selling point.

Another nice thing is the Hall effect joysticks, but that 120Hz display seems like overkill to me.

The price makes for a tough sale though.

It would be weird if they were listening to criticism of other handhelds and still went with windows.
