Tedious set up, but great afterward.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this to play my Game Pass games natively on the go. It took a WHILE to set up, but it has been great afterwards. I can play my games at 60 FPS at 720p without issue. This includes Killer Instinct, Forza Horizon 5, Halo Infinite, and TMNT Shredder's Revenge. Its even better that i got the Z1 extreme open box for $560. If you can get through the initial setup, you will be very pleased with the product.

Made video games fun again
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Something about playing video games on a dedicated gaming device just makes it more fun for me. I already have tons of steam games and this can run all but the most poorly optimized (struggles with a basic RTS called Northgard that it should be able to run haha). I just beat Elden Ring on this thing. It's great! Just be sure to buy a bigger SSD, you can even get an adapter to allow fun size NVME SSDs which are way cheaper.
