Interesting. Similar to the ONEXPLAYER 2 and 2 Pro, with the 8inch screen and detachable controllers. So many buttons! I wonder if the detachable controllers works as is or if you need a controller dock like the OXP2.

Detachable controllers is something I miss on the Steam Deck. At the same time, I don't feel like having Windows on it, I have Linux on everything, including my phone, so unless SteamOS is officially supported, I won't buy. Valve should hurry and release SteamOS as an installable image.

Bluetooth controllers work with it well and 8bitdo makes some nice smaller ones for portability. Not the same as a switch but very handy

You could also pair the joycons to the steam deck

Including your phone? Care to elaborate?

Yeah but. Yeah, sure :) If you specifically say you run Linux I don't think oh he is running Android :) Sorri!

Not really, it uses a patched Linux kernel. Nothing else of the Linux ecosystem is present.

It can have a different distro, as long as it’s Linux then it’s a viable product
