Is running windows os on these devices is a lot of resource overhead?

windows can be tuned to run fairly well, but we're talking lenovo here, and they do love their preinstalled crapware.

The bigger problem with Windows is that the Steamdeck has some great battery optimization settings that seem like they'd be a pain to implement.

Plus windows just kinda sucks to use with these sorts of devices

Plus windows just kinda sucks to use ~~with these sorts of devices~~

FTFY

These devices are honestly quite fast, the overhead is similar to the overhead on an entry level gaming PC (to be fair, that is still a substantial overhead, but people accept it)
