I’m kind of surprised that they aren’t doing Steam Deck-style trackpads. I mean, it probably saves some money, but it seems like a major drawback if the point is “run Windows games on the platform”.
I don’t care to look it up, but I would suspect that Valve has a patent on their trackpads in the context of a handheld console. It might be difficult or impossible for anyone else to try to utilize the same concept.
If that were true then 1 trackpad would’ve been enough, no? Like legion go. Also ayaneo kun exists and it has 2 trackpads which most likely isn’t true that valve has a patent on trackpads.
They don’t, both the Lenovo Legion Go and the AYANEO Kun have a touchpad.
Microsoft must be woefully afraid of alternative input methods. I fully believe this thing wouldn’t even have a Gyro if it wasn’t building off the previous ROG Ally.
