AI has just about killed the PC handheld market, anything half decent coming down the pipe will have crazy starting prices, like £1300 ($1500) or more.
Well, unless sales collapse for some inexplicable reason, which will panic Nintendos shareholders into forcing Nintendo into releasing a newer, more powerful product, it will last just fine.
...but I still won't buy one until there's an OLED version.
Patiently waiting for display ports to arrive that will support the necessary bandwidth for 6K 240Hz OLEDs, which should be in late 2027 or early 2028.
Until then I'll have to slum it with 4K 240Hz... 😁
Sony sure as hell wouldn't want people to see their games running at higher resolutions and framerates on Microsofts console hybrid,Helix. If as people are saying, it will be a fair chunk more powerful than what Sony have lined up for the PS6.
Those new Asus Zephyrus G series laptops with these new Panther Lake chips look quite tasty albeit probably costing close to $5K for the fully loaded G16, RTX 5090 variant.

Re: Arc Pro B70 Benchmarks Show The "Big Battlemage" Arc B770 Graphics Card We Never Got
Their desktop GPUs were never going to survive the Nvidia tie up and the dysfunctional memory market simply put the final nail in the coffin.
Re: Star Fox 64 Remake For Switch 2 Announced, Arrives Next Month
Looks nice and I cant wait to play it...on my PC at 8K, 120fps, one day
Re: Windows K2: The 6 Best Features From Microsoft's Upcoming "Please Don't Leave" Update
Nothing in the long term but in the short term let me do offline installs of Windows without having to jump through ever increasingly absurd hoops.
At this point Microsoft is to financially invested in all this AI integration nonsense to make anything but the most superficial of changes.
Im just waiting for Nvidias Linux drivers to improve enough to make the switch from Windows permanent.
Re: Review: Corsair Vanguard Air 99 Wireless: Great Ideas, Superb Execution, Terrible Price
Even taking into account VAT that is some serious price gouging of the UK consumer at that price.
With a $260 US price tag, no way in hell should it be as high as £240.
Re: Review: Asus ROG Raikiri 2 Xbox Wireless Controller - A Better Elite Alternative
@MattGPT
No way is worth a hundred notes more than G7 Pro and it doesn't even have Gyro controls which is a must for all things Nintendo emulation
Just the usual ASUS tax for the gullible E-Peen brand whores.
Re: "This Could Be Interesting" - Intel To Unveil Panther Lake Handhelds With Arc G3 Graphics At Computex In June
Let's hope they dont follow Lenovo on pricing....what is it now, $1500 for even the most basic Legion Go.
And if, as i assume, MSi will get first dibs on these, dont expect to see them at retail until Q1 2027.
Re: How Much Would You Pay For PlayStation 6?
DOA, relative to previous PlayStation launch numbers, if it costs more than £649 in the UK.
