Neat, but looks rather like a mix out of steamdeck, rog ally and its super weird because of it. Because it doesnt have the same level joysticks you cant easily swap between joycon and trackpads and the page looks definitly not like some jpg slammed together. 100% not scammy looking.

And charging port on the bottom, yuck!

Maybe they figure people will use it docked? And phones have ports on the bottom, they're not so bad to use while charging.

I use it handheld primarily. The difference in my phone is weight. With the port on the bottom, handheld charging becomes almost impossible without constantly putting pressure on the cable and port.

90 degree angled USB cables are a godsend for this.
