So now we wait for an AMD 6xxx series version, right? Wonder if they will offer it by the autumn

Honestly, these custom "Hand-Held Gaming PC's" make no logical sense.

We should just repackage them into former "NetBook" sized chasis and re-brand them as "GameBook" PC's.

Tell the customer to BYOC (Bring Your Own Controller).

Use a more innovative portable format where the NetBook naturally stands up in a "A-Stand" configuration for good airflow / ventillation and has a 100 Wh battery with a flat rubber base with a screen that opens up for better viewing angles at a elevated height where you won't strain your neck as much by having to look down.

Stop trying to make a heavier portable hand held.

The Nintendo Switch sucked in terms of ergonomics/weight, you can't hold it for longer than 1-2 hrs without your arms getting tired.

Making a larger/heavier hand-held gaming platform isn't going to solve the problems of weight/mass along with bad ergonomics.

I don't get who is buying any of these, yeah.

If you want a Nintendo Switch, get that. It's better and cheaper.

If you want a gaming PC, get that. It's better and the same price or cheaper.

Also, these all tend to use an overpowered CPU and underpowered GPU. Doesn't that defeat the point of a "gaming" device?

Only if you want Nintendo Exclusive games, which is usually their 1st Party lineup. Otherwise, you might as well wait until it comes to PC.

True, a gaming Desktop will be infinitely superior for the cost, the only down-side is that it ain't portable.

A Portable Gaming LapTop will be "Over Priced" and under performs compared to your DeskTop, but there are sacrifices to be made for Gaming LapTops.

Depends on the resolution you're targeting. Gaming at 1K resolutions of 1280x720p @ 60 fps is do-able for these low powered APU's or cheapo ARM APU's like the Nintendo Switch.

But the one thing they aren't is "Light Weight", "Small", or "Ergonomic".

And they get REALLY HOT when you push them.

You could also have a dedicated home server that you can remote into with ParSec from a average laptop when traveling and run games or anything else that is gpu or cpu core intensive.
Works for me.
