"It's possible that the existential threat from SteamOS, which on paper delivers better gaming performance than Windows 11 itself, has informed these decisions."

Yeah, the Lenovo Legion handhelds, the SteamOS version is substantially better in performance than the Windows version. And at a lower cost. With what Microsoft is trying to accomplish now when it comes to gaming hardware, Valve is their biggest competition now.

Still probably the right call.

IMO doesn’t matter how great the hardware is if Microsoft doesn’t curate the Xbox experience on Windows (especially for handheld)

get the software right and circle back to the hardware https://t.co/UsG1OvY09X
