Every hardware vendor seems to want a go at making a handheld, and now its ZOTAC jumping in with the Zone.

‘it will come with windows’

Why. Why on earth do these OEMs keep trying to make windows on portable gaming consoles a thing. It’s so stupid

I wonder if theyll use the airjet like they did on that one minipc they made with them.

There was big hype over that cooler a couple years ago and since then just crickets.

Finally, one that gets the “i want to be a steam deck competitor” formfactor correct.

It has actual trackpads!!

Hoping it has the back triggers too

All i want is a steam deck with a screen size on par with the legion go.

The joysticks don’t look like they’re in a comfortable spot for me sadly. They seem to be around where the touchpads on the Steam Deck are and personally that isn’t a comfortable spot to keep my thumbs for the majority of a play session. These devices should really just copy the Steam Deck layout, it’s already a copy of the Wii U.

Is it a competitor if it’s like, almost exactly same thing? Why would I buy anything at all from “Zotac” vs. Valve? Especially when they have no distinguishing features?

They may not be what you want, but this article listed multiple distinguishing features. 1080p, 120hz, hall effect joysticks and triggers, adjustable triggers, and a camera.

I’d still choose a Steam Deck personally, but there are definitely enticing features here that I wish the Steam Deck offered.

And gyro for shooters.
