I'm glad they kept the detachable controllers. Makes it much nicer to get actual work done on it without looking like a freak. I just hope they release an official keyboard dock for this one.

It's still happening? I thought Lenovo gave up cause you couldn't find the steam version anywhere on their site or online retailers.
This or a Steam Deck?
Today? SD.
But when this comes out, I suspect this. Pending pricing and reviews of course.
SD is getting a little old, sadly.
I keep seeing rumors about ridiculous pricing, so like you say I will wait and see, I currently have neither
What games is it too old for, exactly?
Could be any, depending.
More about the tech and being sub 1080p.
Of course if you're fine with that, it's still quite excellent. I love mine.
Honestly, the resolution doesn't really bother me. It's just about right for the screen size, about 200 PPI at 7". If the screen were larger (which is one of the things I want from a SD2), it might not be enough.
The other thing I'd want is more USB sockets (at least one with USB-PD) on both the top and bottom edge.
Word, I can dig it. My SD OLED is a nice piece of kit. Been very happy with it.
Nice, I'm looking forward to this one
