Incredibly bad talk. The text barely makes sense at many points, the speaker is barely able to read it out loud, and keeps messing up. Feels like a complete waste to have an expert and force them to read a couple of poorly translated marketing statements.

The design of this is clearly heavily inspired by the Steam Deck. 16:10 screen, two touchpads and a Linux OS, so it must ship Proton to be of any use. Valve should really hurry up and release a Steam OS distro.

The details in the hardware look nice, like Hall Effect joysticks. But my faith in the Manjaro devs is limited, and Orange Pi doesn't have a huge reputation yet (no complaints with my Zero 3 yet).

Interested to see how this plays out.
