Manjaro? So it will break after a few updates?
Edit: I want more competition. Don't get me wrong. The more handhelds, the more linux, the more innovation!!

Glad to see a company finally use track pads on their device. Though I personally am not looking for a new device.
Neat, but looks rather like a mix out of steamdeck, rog ally and its super weird because of it. Because it doesnt have the same level joysticks you cant easily swap between joycon and trackpads and the page looks definitly not like some jpg slammed together. 100% not scammy looking.
And charging port on the bottom, yuck!
It looks like it has a usb c port on the top and bottom so it might be wired where you can charge with either/or?
Maybe they figure people will use it docked? And phones have ports on the bottom, they're not so bad to use while charging.
I use it handheld primarily. The difference in my phone is weight. With the port on the bottom, handheld charging becomes almost impossible without constantly putting pressure on the cable and port.
Let me tell you that as someone who lays on their back while playing, I truly hate charging points on the bottom. If I'm not exactly mobile, I'm plugged into a charger because why waste battery life? Having that port on the bottom makes relaxing comfortably much harder.
I was excited when i saw the trackpads. It faded away when i saw the lack of grip buttons.
So Raspberry Pie and Orange Pie? 😸

The whole idea behind Manjero's update scheme is just generally a landmine. LTS releases typically work by maintaining a older branch that gets updates. In this way you delay features not patches. If you run Firefox on such a system it will be Firefox LTS with this week's patches (this is kinda important for security reasons). Manjaro doesn't do this instead it just holds everything back artificially one or two weeks.
Bluntly doing this with a browser or other security critical software should be a crime.
Manjero just generally feels very amaturish and its history of taking down Arch's servers is not helping here.
