Anyone notice that during the "steam deck" comparison of "thinner and narrower" they zoom in at 1:59 and it's more footage of the OneXPlayer? You can see the orange button on the front, and that top is not the IO and layout of the Steam Deck.

Yup. Definitely not the Steam Deck. You can see the joystick placement is staggered like an Xbox controller too. On the Steam Deck they're both at the top. It looks like Linus may have actually grabbed a Steam Deck at 1:58, but then the close-up shots were wrong, because the top layout was the same as the previous device (OneX Player Mini). I have to blame the editor on this one.

[@Gunks_]

@@VioletViolent Disagree. This is what's "technically capable" if you want to spend the money. The Steam Deck is a much more realistic or "possible" option because it costs similar to what people traditionally pay for a handheld. Would you pay $1300 for a better Switch? What about $530? Valve attacked this market with a quality product, even if it is inferior to things like this, at a reasonable and realistic price point. I have never even considered one of these devices because I could get a gaming laptop for that price and it would be similarly useful. But the Steam Deck? The closest competitor is the Switch and that is not exactly a similar market.

It's a very niche market who has been selling to pay for a device between phone and laptop at this price point.

@oh no whats that to do with anything?

[@brikeibur123]

I bought the Ayaneo pro recently and fortunately was in the window of return when they announced the Next, I had to send the pro back roughly a month ago and I've definitely missed it. I look forward to receiving this new version because I was truly blown away at the Pro's ability to run AAA games. Aya's challenge is definitely price because their pockets do not run as deep as Steam's but I'm grateful for the competition in the handheld market. It's awesome that Nintendo has some significant challenges in this area and it should drive some great competition.

I also say "start" and "select". And in my mind, all the letter buttons on the xbox controller are triangle, square, circle and X.

[@8strate8]

Top AND bottom is not called a "switch". It's called "vers" or "versatile". "Switch" means SUB and DOM.

As an Aya Neo pro owner, it's great to see aya grow and put out new tech to further the portable gaming market. Personally I already had a good reservation for the steam deck, so I won't be going for the next. That said for everyone saying this is doa, it isn't. SD is only going to be available in a few countries at launch and AYA will send their units anywhere, so they very much have a market and are already popular in China, South Korea, and Japan. So where the SD is the Aya will probably have a hard time, but where it isn't Aya does very well.

2:01 That is not a Steam Deck... Linus?

I don't see the point in lauching all these new models with ryzen 6000 behind the corner

[@robotsix6268]

Design takes time and money. If they don't release anything just because a new generation of essential tech decided to get released early, they'd lose 6 more months to wait for supply and millions of dollars just to replace their current stock.

[@goncalo33]

This video gives us a bit of a glimpse into their video publishing schedule, as those JerryRigEverything knives already arrived ages ago.

@2:00 comparing to the steam deck on a side view and then switching to a top down view of… not the steam deck? while still talking about the steam deck… lol

[@christopherburden999]

[@karlkiernan6863]

I have been watching many reviews of this type of handheld PC for gaming and was supried at how expensive they are then the Next comes along and is even more expensive. Although it is a really nice device I just cant see them selling many as they have much competition anyway in this field and the Steam Deck is almost out . Its interesting to watch how they progress as I have gone from gaming desktop to a GPD Win Max 2021 and so far I like it.

[@otso648]

Now install SteamOS 3 on it.

[@oplkfdhgk]

That would probably be the smart choice but I don't think that's possible yet. 🙂

My only concern, that new models coming out to frequent.. paying $1300 this year, just in a months times to see newer model released…

[@hisnameis28]

That's actually a very valid concern, you don't want to regret your purchase when the tech is moving fast for mobile. But it probably doesn't matter much for those focusing on 2d games and retro emulators.

[@marcusx3605]

That happened to me with Asus.. got a zephyrus duo se 15 last year just for them to come out with the zephyrus duo 16 and better specs this year.. especially for the price I paid.. really pissed me off. Almost like they new they had this in the workings and did a money grab real fast to pump out the 16 with better specs.. and I had to wait 6 months to get the laptop on back order.

[@brandon_nope]

LMAO 2:00 that is not a Steam Deck Linus 🤣

I wonder how easy it would be to setup and how well it would run on steamOS!?

It's extremely hard to even be remotely interested in these handhelds when the steam deck is a thing. The deck starts at a third of the price, and absolutely shits on the entire competition in terms of performance. My one complaint: the steam deck looks like absolutely dogshit. But still, I'm buying one.

[@GamerFrom93]

I would personally like to see a teardown of the Ayaneo Next, and would also like to know, as i didn't notice in the video if he mentioned, if it has the potential to use 2 m.2 or if it's just one, as I would like to have a bit more storage than 1tb in there

[@MrEdennnn]

“It’s called a switch 😉” all the 🏳️‍🌈 guys like 👀👀👀

[@patrickw1442]

It would be interesting to compare with WIN4.

[@jhidalgo_]

I am very surprised and pleased with their own interface. There is a market here once prices go a little bit down.

[@dangerwr]

"Do you know how many AA batteries I bought?" Hundreds if not thousands before rechargeable was a thing.

[@AssailantLF]

3:26 "whatever these buttons are called on the Xbox, I call them start and select because I'm old." Apparently the official names are the view and menu buttons. I don't think anyone calls them the view and menu buttons, lmao.

[@chrisogrady28]

2:42 it's called being Vers. Switch is specifically a BDSM term for being both dominant and submissive in different situations / with different people. Dominance and submissiveness don't always correleate to penetrative and receptive partner.

[@Kafen8d]

Console manufacturers are taking the controller, cutting it in half, and jamming the entire console itself in between with a screen to boot. I like it.

Aya neo: can I copy your homework? Valve: shure but change it up a little Aya neo:

I still call'em Start and Select too, Linus. Don't even worry about it

[@Regi_Goes]

1:49 uh anyone notice that they compared the oneXplayer twice instead of the steamdeck? kinda weird, I wanted to see it compared.

[@sardonicgoat]

Weird edit at about the 2:00 mark. You grab the Steam Deck for comparison but the overhead shot is the comparison of the Next and One X again not the Steam Deck.
