So many "competitors" coming out, but I still think I'm just gonna wait for the Deck 2.

They don't want to miss out the "hype" but also Valve deem the hardware jump is not that much to consider "Deck 2". If only these manufacturer also consider bringing software optimization rather than keep producing portable handheld with small performance jump.

To be fair, they don't have a big digital storefront to make money. If they try to ask money for software update? Oh boy ....

So yeah, just like lenovo, asus or other malnifacturers, pumping out devices is their business model for now.
