I really wish more PC handheld devices would come out with SteamOS instead of Windows. It'd make them a lot more appealing to me over the Steam Deck. The Windows experience on handhelds is a bloated and kludgy mess.
It can’t be done cause Steam hasn’t released it yet unfortunately
They haven't released the installable ISO, but there's no reason why hardware vendors and Valve couldn't work together to build a Steam OS image for specific devices.
Presuming valve wants to do this of course.
Don't see why they wouldn't. Every SteamOS device sold is a huge win for them
They have everything to win and nothing to lose. SteamOS is purpose built to direct you to Steam, Valve only wins.
My main concern with companies like Lenovo or Asus building such devices on Windows is support. I have more trust in Valve to do this right.
Allegedly MSFT took notice and is working on it…. But there are some good 3P apps that make it usable to launch games. Installing them is still a chore without a Bluetooth keyboard.
