Why would they charge less than the Steam Deck if the Steam Machine is being said to be 6x more powerful than the Steam Deck? |
The reason, is the value people see in products.
You can build a pc yourself, equal to the steam machine with random parts online, from shops for like 550$.
You cannot build a handheld yourself, from random parts online.
This is why.
The markets decide the prices, by the competition surrounding them.
People are okay with paying high prices, if the perceived value of what your buying is there.
Its not with the steam machine, if you can build something yourself equal in power for like 550$.
Also with handhelds, a huge part (of the price) is the battery and displays and speakers and such....
stuff you don't need to care about in a console/mini pc.
