Not...really? I think it's best described as "not bad". But there are a half a dozen handheld PCs at this point that are nearly indistinguishable. Maybe some weirdo really wants an Intel handheld for some reason, so they buy The Claw.

Using worse components just to be different is not really a good sales strategy.

They're not objectively worse.

The benefits of Intel (mostly Thunderbolt) are irrelevant for handhelds, though.

eGPUs with a handheld? Yeah... nope.

Where are you carrying that eGPU?

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 0 points 1 week ago

You don't carry it anywhere. You leave it on your desk.
