All these handhelds have decent AMD hardware, I would bet money that absolutely any new steamOS handheld will have similar or more powerful hardware than the OG deck. This new Lenovo device specifically is more powerful than the OG deck as well.
And with steamOS being Linux, a free and open source system, hardware fragmentation wont really be a thing. With Android hardware fragmentation was bad because many devices would never get updated after a year or so, but this is true Linux and valve is a consumer friendly company so I don't really know what you mean talking about hardware fragmentation.
This is great for valve, and great for gamers. There is no down side to this.
