I have a steam deck, so I'm not looking outsideof sheer interest and passion for these kinds of devices.

I'm curious to see how much of a monopoly some of these device brands have in mindshare.

My 2 favorites are my old gpdwin2, and my new retroid flip (not x86, android).

Have a deck, use it sometimes, but it's big...

Planning to get a gpd win mini when it comes out, that form factor is amazing.

I would loveto hear how you like the gpd win mini when you get it. I have the 2020 win max and loved it

I like the look of the win max, but the fact that I can pocket the win2 is just incredible, even if it kind of sucks for ergonomics and firepower.

Will report when it comes out.

I backed the OneXFly on Indiegogo, because my brother took the Steam Deck with him when he moved out and I had two RoG Ally systems from Best Buy fail on me (good thing they were under warranty). I'd get another Steam Deck but honestly I was disappointed it couldn't run Parkitect or Stellaris.

Absolutely. All said I like the Steam Deck's product quality; Far better than I feared, even if slightly underpowered.
