AMD-powered OLED handheld aims to rival the Steam Deck OLED — Ryzen 9 AI HX 370 runs Black Myth: Wukong at 50-60 FPS with 1080p low settings
AMD's Ryzen AI 300 series CPUs finally make their way into a proper handheld gaming PC.
- no touchpads
and assuming it's like their other handhelds...
- no back buttons
- runs windows
And most likely poor repairability
Every. Single. Fucking. Time.
These people don't fucking see the light urrghhhhhhhh
- runs windows.
Let me present to you https://bazzite.gg ✨ (I assume it's easy to flash these things just like on the other brands)
You don't "rival" the Steam Deck with better hardware alone.
Fan base is loyal, native linux support, no obvious UX advantages with competition
Everyone is trying to make a "Steam Deck killer" but none of these companies understand what makes the Steam Deck so good. Its not the touchpads, the back peddles, the good motion controlls, the capacitive sticks, or the good grips (although they help), its the software that truly makes a steam deck different from every other PC handheld. Everything just works and everything works together. Fundamentally you cannot recreate that experience with another poorly designed launcher, you need a true controller UI.
With SteamOS getting patches specifically to make it work as the main OS on third-party handhelds, that's less of an argument now. What's left is the absolutely insane price point of the Deck.
As of now no 3rd party handhelds ship SteamOS by default
It has that performance at 65% resolution scaling.
Imagine running windows on a handheld lol
But can I get it for $400? Because if not, then why are we talking about the Steam Deck.
