Has anyone tried one of these Steam Deck alternatives like ROG Ally, GPD, OneXPlayer etc? I'm kinda keen on this Ayaneo Geek 1S (www.indiegogo.com)

Let me give you a tip - if you are planning to play games just like you do with Xbox controller - pick any device you want.

But if you want to have these:

  • Gyro aiming
  • Trackpads (aka "mouse touchpad")
  • Back buttons
  • Self-repair
  • Value (price/performance)
  • Customization freedom (macros, shortcuts layers, virtual menus of bindings in-game, idk many more choices...)

Then you have to pick Steam Deck.

Hell, it should be enough for you to check what are your choices if you break Aya vs Steam Deck display. Where would you get display? How easy it's to replace?

With Steam Deck it's iFixIt and they have parts, quality guides and tools for everything. What does Aya have?
