    works great, still a handheld PC so performance on AAA is never gonna be great but it's definitely a step above Steam Deck, and SteamOS is super smooth

    This is my favorite handheld. I’ve had a few of them and I can say this is truly such an amazing handheld. The performance is so great, STEAM OS is so much better than just windows. Yes it’s a lil harder to mod or not possible in some cases but this is perfect for on the go gaming and easy to use!

    Running Steam OS gives the Z1E new life. Everything feels much faster than it does on Windows. Much better device than the original Legion Go.

    feels super nice and better than nintendo switch, but I returned it after trying some games and their configs were messy. It seems like a pc gaming: you have to configure the console especially for the game. Thats not what I was looking for.

    Exceeds expectation coming from Switch 2! I got tired of Nintendo and wanted to expand my library. I love using this thing! It feels better in my hand "stock" then the Switch or Switch 2 and is not as loud or heavy as many reviews made it sound.
