    Speaking of bigger numbers: Are there even any rivals larger than Steam Deck? The damn thing is wider than my laptop.

    I think the point of the original Deck and the recent update are that they have too crappy of a screen to play non-demanding games, too weak hardware to play demanding games and too heavy of a body if what you do is just streaming from a PC.

      I feel you’re probably just trolling now, but I’m guessing you’ve never actually used one, or if you have you’re comparing it to a gaming laptop that cost at least twice as much

        No, I just daily-drive a OneNetbook 4. Steam Deck is wider than that. Or a GPD Win Max. Or anything reasonably-sized, really.

      Both Aya Neo and Lenovo have handhelds bigger than the Deck. I don’t know about the size of the ROG Ally, but I do know that both of GPD’s handhelds are smaller than the Deck.

        You’re right. I forgot not all Ayas are cute pocketable OLED 5.5-inchers.
