Tecno Pocket Go is like a Steamdeck that replaces a screen with a wearable display (www.notebookcheck.net)

I think this is really the way going forward with portable gaming.

  • Lighter and smaller handheld
  • A large screen experience in a portable package
  • Privacy
  • Not having to hold the handheld device oriented to view it
  • Replaceable battery is a big plus too!

There is no mention of Linux as the OS but it looks as friendly to Linux gaming as any other AMD based handheld device beside the Steam Deck.

Doesn't seem like a bad idea but Steam Deck + Xreal Air is what I would (and did) choose over something like that. That way I have the option of using the glasses but they're not strictly necessary.

Also the 8840HS makes the same mistake as other handhelds with almost zero regard to battery life.
