It’s really exciting to see this because naturally as more molds for handheld displays become common and components become more commonly produced because of demand, prices should become a lot more reasonable. Or rather, performance should be a lot more reasonable. In 5 years I’m sure we’ll be playing AAA titles on handhelds that have more reasonable prices. And if we figure out lower latency technology for cloud gaming and phones then that’s always an option too. The Backbone controller on my iPhone already runs Xbox cloud streaming really well. If we figure the latency out then that would be the solution to battery life, performance, and cost allowing the focus to be more on ergonomics. Super excited to see the future.

Plus add to the fact that the Nintendo is a known name, you can just grab one walking through Wal-Mart, Target or Best Buy on a whim. Plus you know that the Switch (at launch) and Nintendo's next console will have a 5+ year support plan in place, so the games will be designed and optimized specifically for that hardware for years.

Ever since the Switch showed everyone how great gaming could be even on in a handheld, only not as limited on power, everything has only gotten better. Though I'm constantly surprised at just how cheap the Steam Deck is for the overall power and utility. Seems like that itself might be hard to beat. That and the idea that a thumbstick going bad means that the console isn't effectively damaged, being able to easily change it, is icing on the cake.

Steam deck doesn't have thunderbolt. I have a 2070 super sitting on a table and if I got a handheld, I'd want to give it the graphics power of a ps5 on the go and be easy to carry to something like a hotel and hook it all up. I don't care about laptop performance so a handheld could entirely replace a laptop for me. All I care about is thunderbolt, good screen, good buttons on the device, a processor that has enough speed and cores, and decent enough build quality not to be rickety I'd crush indies on the display in portable use, and use a portable gaming setup when visiting my dad or whatever. My main PC weighs about 60 pounds and I don't care about mobile performance when I can just game on a 4k HDR big screen with a water-cooled monster. However I need a $500ish handheld with basically USB 4 with integrated thunderbolt, and a processor that doesn't get bottlenecked by a 2070 super and controls as good as the older Xbox one game pad. Steam deck comes close but it's screen sucks ass, it's CPU is weak and no thunderbolt or USB 4 Also I need an E-GPU that supports water-cooling cards

@@roundduckkira They doln't have the means to do that. This handheld of theirs is their response to just how successful Steam Deck is, and it's still not enough. By the time they would be able to get price competitive to Steam Deck(whatever version of it by that time), Valve will probably expand into the smaller form factor/more premium one already. I don't doubt Aya will continue to exist for a long time, but Steam Deck is the beginning of the end for them and everyone else in the handheld market. Valve is just that big, operating at profits for doing not all that much, they can do whatever the hell they want, and Steam Deck shows it. Also Steam OS is NOT just a cost cutting method for them not using Windows, but it's also a response to Microsoft's very edgy practices and their Windows store etc. You want Valve to keep succeeding for years to come. And no Steam OS is not just a prototypeish version of Steam with big picture mode, it's quite a bit more. It gives you a very easy way to use/play the Steam Deck and monitor and control it's hardware, something no other device really has, especially the hardware control.

Sharing with a phone or goodness forbid, using your phone as a GPS, it's just a PITA. IMHO. There's just no reason not to use your portable computer to do everything better. Why there isn't a Traveler Pro model is just beyond me.

It is great to see the handhelds going through a renaissance. Back in 2012-ish, people seriously thought smartphones would be the death of them. I agree that the Air needs a bump to RDNA2. AMD isn't making any off-the-shelf Rembrandt APUs with a 15w TDP though. Deck is still the way to go even if it's a chonker. More powerful, and Valve has more skin in the game long term. But this is something I can see doing very well in Asians market due to its small size and lighter weight. Deck to me is something you more play around the house or on vacation, not day-to-day on transit or something.

I imagine they simply don't have the manufacturing capacity (and perhaps profit margin) required to sell on Amazon. To steal Linus' Framework explanation, they're not a big enough company to just build 50,000-100,000 of the things (numbers entirely pulled out my arse) and stick them up on Amazon for the masses. They need to reinvest their profits from each batch back into manufacturing the next batch/next generation of product. Even though the Steam Deck absolutely murders anything GPD or Aya have in terms of value, I imagine they'll still keep happily chugging along and growing as companies since the only people buying their products up until now have been enthusiasts with a lot of money (like Linus), and those people will still be in the market for something higher end than the Steam Deck if available. So maybe someday we'll see products like this on Amazon, but right now your best chance is probably the Steam Deck in 6-12 months once they've finished clearing their backlog and can finally put them up for direct sale through Steam, and then eventually retailers (well maybe, but surely if they want the things to sell they need to get them out there).

Downsides are buggy window behavior where backgrounds do not load correctly, and the web player randomly breaking/hanging. The player also fails to buffer above 20mb/sec.

On the other hand, I personally cannot justify spending another $600+ on a handheld device for emulators or newer games at very low quality settings. I love video games as much as any gamer, but idk. I built my pc so that I could get a really good gaming experience and this just feels like it takes away from that in exchange for the convenience of playing in bed (or on the pooper). Which I don't really want to do. Maybe I'm just not the target consumer for this one.

It’s totally fair to not be the target customer, but here’s my take: I have such a large backlog of 2-4 generation old games that don’t need to be played on my main machine to have a good experience, alongside a number of indie games like FTL, Factorio, etc. I’m addition, I don’t get to game as much as I used to, and when I’m on my main machine, I want to play the games that make the most use of the hardware. My Deck (and I did buy the $600 version) actually gives me more opportunities to play some games on my backlog that I otherwise wouldn’t get to. In addition, the Deck is so good in desktop mode that it also functions as a laptop replacement for me - granted, I don’t have significant need for a mobile workstation. The Deck provides a more convenient experience than hauling around a laptop, which I have done in the past. In short, I knew that I’d be targeting light game use (significantly below my main machine) alongside light laptop use (significantly less than a mobile workstation), which the Deck fulfills perfectly for both. Being new, having interesting power constraints, and an in-work Linux OS also provides a bit of a scratch for the itch to tinker and make the hardware work to the best of its abilities. I have been well satisfied with my purchase, and I would - and have - seriously recommended the 350 or 500 dollar versions who liked their switch but wanted more flexibility from the system. Like I said, it’s okay if you’re not the target customer, but I’m glad I bought mine and have supported those working on improving the technology in this resurgence in handhelds, especially since I never got to experience handhelds in the DS days.

@@nwzander This is probably the best response I think I've seen anywhere in regards to this. These devices don't make sense to me because I'm either playing the oldest of old games (on a hacked Vita) or the newest of new games on my desktop PC. No inbetweens. I also stay away from indie games. With that said, I don't have much time to play games at all anymore with work, and life. When i travel for vacation, the last thing I want to be doing is playing video-games, especially if it's a new place I've never been to. For web browsing, email, and non-interactive media consumption (movies/videos) I can get by just fine on my phone so no need for an additional device for that either. If I do decide to bring some kind of games with me, it's probably just my Vita for all the roms. The only time I get to sit down at my PC and actually use it to game is mostly on weekend nights and that's it. But I'm ok with that because that's how life is structured for me. So these handhelds really don't do it for me. However - I am very glad to see that there is a market for this technology with consumers like yourself because I do believe this kind of technology will push computer hardware towards some even cooler stuff.

It was a pretty big seller, but they didn't have hardly any orders filled. While they were still shipping orders, they announced an upgraded computer, the Osborne Executive. It was a much more advanced machine, but only prototypes had been shown off. In anticipation of the new systems being released, orders for the Osborne 1 were cancelled, 'causing them to not have enough money to continue development and release of the Executive. 2 years after the Osborne 1 was released, the company went bankrupt never having having released the Executive. There's a couple of other things that hurt them as well. Kaypro had a comparable machine to the Osborne 1 with a larger screen for a similar price. Now this company with their handhelds aren't as on financially shaky ground, but if everyone is going to wait for the vastly superior product, are they absolutely going to be able to produce that product if they can't even make what they put into the current model?

I try to imaging holding AyaNeo Air at the size of the Switch running 25+ Wh and how hot it would get in my hands. When it comes to playing low graphics indy games on a handheld Switch is still a good choice due to it's size and low wattage without getting too warm. A game like "Into the Breach" is perfect to play on the go with the Switch.
