Will these beat a steam deck do you think?

I think no, so much of what makes the Steam Deck great is SteamOS. Plus my understanding is that this things battery life isn't very good.

That being said, still appears to be a competent competitor and I'm here for that.

The lack of touch controls was a red flag for me, too. Having a trackpad as a backup input device for menus and things seems like it'd be pretty important, but I don't have a Steam Deck so maybe I'm wrong.

Trackpads are nice for desktop navigation so you don't have to be tapping on the tiny screen.
