Being a heavy user of the original Nintendo Gameboy and of Sega's Game Gear, I'm thrilled to see handhelds making a huge comeback. I own the ASUS ROG Ally and it's sooooo pleasant to use.
That's the one with better hardware than the Steamdeck, but is shipped with a worse OS, right?
Not necessarily worse, it depends how you see it.
Windows lets me run my PC Gamepass for Xbox as well as Steam, retro console emulators, Python IDE etc, out of the box.
However, it doesn't let me suspend games and it sure is more taxing on the hardware to run.
As I'm not exclusively playing on Steam, the ROG is perfect for my needs.
I don't use any of the game-rental/pass services, so I hadn't considered that angle.
I am glad it suits your needs
