My steam deck runs Windows 11 at full speed to take advantage of the xbox game pass. My two surfaces both arm and intel run win 11 at full speed, I dont understand your comment. The one major complaint is that SteamOS sleep is a killer feature, not a day goes by that I do not covet it. Windows sleep does not exist and is left out in reviews but honestly to a regular person is the biggest difference, and is why I can not recommend anything other than steamdeck.

it seems that you didn't understand my comment. What I wanted to highlight is, both AMD CPU's and Linux use up less battery than Intel CPU's and Windows 11 while gaming. Why are you telling me something about "my steam deck runs windows 11 at """full speed"""(?)"? If you check GamersNexus' MSI Claw review, you'll realize that its battery life is pretty bad compared to other handhelds, arguably one of the most important stats of a handheld.

You are correct I misunderstood, I read your comment as handhelds with intel can’t windows. It is why I shifted to my surfaces, as they have xbox gaming and run other than AMD. IME windows can game on literally any platform, I linux professionally but MacOS privately, apple apps that run on x86 can not run on their m platforms because they dont support ARM #Facepalm, so the run anywhere promise of windows (which I know is fake) seems hard to beat, and I do not feel windows has overhead that these handhelds can’t overcome.

Alright no worries, my first comment was mostly just a quick jab at intels powerhungriness on desktop compared to AMD and windows 11's telemetry eating up processing power (which I also know can be turned off). Admittedly, I don't know too much about power efficiency of intel's mobile chips to comment on them in a serious way.
