It’s two generations behind the current handheld offerings.
Now if you were going to buy something to last you the next few years would you pick the already old product or the fresh new one with modern components?
It’s outdated.
The software beats the shit out of any other handheld.
Yeah. Unfortunately the hardware doesn't run last gen games as other options but the need to deal with Windows is a nono for me. Also I don't understand why people want to play AAA games on a handheld.
Honestly I use it as a desktop more than I play games on it.
Is it though? It's targetting 5-15W, the other APUs are terrible at lower wattages and only good if they're blasting through energy.
