Well 1200*800 will consume less power and will allow the handheld to play alot of games, This will allow you to play your steam Library (games that you bought on sale) on the go and you wont be renting the games like you would with stadia, there will probably be less latency as well. I dont think Stadia is even a competitor for this?
The Steam Deck is a handheld which will let you play cheap games as well as emulate other games since its just a PC, and its not even that much more expensive than the switch which will only be an advantage for it.

They probably should have made the controllers detachable so you can hook it up to your TV and play it from your couch just like the Switch.
Also, it would had been nice, if the battery was removable too.

Most other controlers were designed with kids hands in mind.

And you can play cloud games too in it, and at that price it has value than any smartphone in market.

The resolution is thus perfect; higher res. is inpercievable at this distance on 7".
Games will run fluid with the throttled cpu (not much space to dissipate heat).
This really is an awesome device!

yes gtx. 1050 is not the best but it can play any title on high setting wich is more than more than more than acceptable
a very very very big upgrade from my gt 740m laptop wich I got for 250 dollars about 4 years before

Despite all the bad press for Stadia, it's actually unsurpassed on handheld. You can connect your phone to the controller and enjoy top titles (Cyberpunk, Red Dead etc) in 1080p.
As for this thing, I don't get the point of it. It's pretty low res and can't handle Half life Alyx. Doesn't have the OEM titles to compete with the Switch and doesn't have the horsepower to compete with Stadia/Xcloud. Hmm

Lower the physical controls a bit and the price by $20 dollars and the unforseen potential will bubble up instead of simmering down like a sewer-reject knockoffs.
