    So it’s more for casual gaming, the advantage over a phone is having physical buttons. That makes sense, thank you. I thought they would be used as the primary gaming machine which baffled me.

      Nah, the advantage of these over a phone is that you can play actually good games on these.

      Mobile games sucks.

      I think playing shooter games like cyberpunk with a controller is annoying but there are a ton of amazing non shooter games that I can play on the train on my way to work. Currently I am actually playing emulated switch games, but I have a few AAA on there as well and lots of indie.

        I don’t think I would like to play a big title on a small screen, that would be like watching Dune on your phone. But for smaller Indies it actually could make sense, like puzzle games. But I guess I’ll stick to my PC.

          I think it’s the convenience and portability that most people like, including me. They don’t have to be played in handheld mode. They can be connected to a monitor and optionally even support external gpus. That’s how I play big titles, docked, with an egpu and a monitor. But when I need to, I can just take the device with me to play smaller titles like sea of stars and mass effect legendary edition on the go

      My Razor Kishi pro v2 makes my phone better than any of these windows handhelds.
