"Microsoft's Windows 11 Handheld Mode Brings Gaming to Steam Deck-Like Devices"
TL;DR Summary
A leaked pitch video from a Microsoft Hackathon shows a concept for an optimized Windows user interface on Valve's Steam Deck handheld PC, allowing for games to be opened from multiple storefronts. The pitch calls for Microsoft to "get serious" about handheld gaming to improve its credibility within the PC gaming community. Currently, Valve provides drivers to get Windows working on the Steam Deck, but the experience is far from optimal. The Aya Neo Pro and Air are pricy competitors, while Asus recently unveiled its ROG Ally handheld PC.
