So impressively what the Steamdeck is achieving with all these optimisations and upscaling. 

Yep. FSR4 is breathing some life back into it and staving off some of the concerns of there not being any decent new PC handheld hardware. 

Having said that, a lot of 9th Generation feature heavy titles run poorer on it than Switch 2. Star Wars Outlaws (and probably Indiana Jones too when it releases) being examples. 

Which is to be expected - the best feature of consoles (and old home computers), at least form my POV, was fixed hardware, so games can be fine tuned for that specific platform.

Take Outlaws - it's running with a lot of cut down geometry on Switch 2 and there's no such preset for PCs. Unfortunately, as much as PC handhelds are nice, I don't think any developer will go extra mile (at least for foreseeable future) to make fine tuned ports just for them, instead of just treating them as low power PCs. Maybe that will change with XBOX ROG Ally, but I kinda doubt it.
