I think this is really the way going forward with portable gaming.

  • Lighter and smaller handheld
  • A large screen experience in a portable package
  • Privacy
  • Not having to hold the handheld device oriented to view it
  • Replaceable battery is a big plus too!

There is no mention of Linux as the OS but it looks as friendly to Linux gaming as any other AMD based handheld device beside the Steam Deck.

Why did you list "privacy"?

Because no one can see your screen. Even if they can hear "what are you doing stepsquidward?" from your headphones

Nice, then I can finally jerk off in public, and no one sees what porn I am watching. Nice!
