The State of PC Handhelds in 2025 & the BEST Ways to Enjoy Them!
While in New York City this week, Stubbs, Rob, Andrew and guests The Phawx (Cary Golomb), Baldly Rudy, and Scattered Brain gathered to discuss the state of mobile PC handheld Gaming in 2025. We chat in-depth about our hands-on experience with the GPD Win 5 (and 395+ Max), MSI Claw 8, ROG Ally X, Xbox fullscreen experience, AMD Z2, Steam Deck, Lenovo Legion Go S & 2, Win600, and the OneXFly F1 Pro, Switch 2, and Apple devices. We also discuss the best ways to play your Steam, GOG and other PC Game libraries, x86, Android with Winlator/GameHub/GameNative and using ARM, SteamOS, along with local and cloud streaming. With all this in mind, we explore how much you'd pay to travel two years into the future where we believe everything will converge into the best possible device and play methods, and what it will take for us to get there!
