For those that don't know, Steam allowing ARM binaries in Steamworks packages means that games and software can be packaged with native ARM versions for distribution on Steam. This was pretty much expected when they announced that their new headset would be running a Snapdragon (ARM) CPU - but having an Android version means there is also the potential for Steam to start making games you own on Steam playable on non-Steam Android devices.

Kind of makes me want to get one of these new handhelds with 16GB of RAM and latest gen Qualcomm's Elite chip. But then I remember that would be $500 and absolutely not worth it 😅.

Here I saved you $50!

Need at least 7" screen, preferably 8"!

On a more serious note Odin 3 looks pretty sweet.

Edit: God damn, the specs on the Ultra. 24GB RAM and 1TB in a small Android handheld. If this thing had a bit larger screen, I would be legit tempted.

There's the Odin 2 Portal also, with 7" screen. You'll need to wait for the Odin 3 Portal for the 7" screen. But the specs for 2 Portal are still quite good.

These are probably the best streaming handhelds on the market. AyaNeo also releasing Konkr Pocket Fit, which is quite good.

Oh yeah, Portal is pretty good, but its chip is basically a bit outdated now, especially if you want to run x86 on Arm.
