The Win2 is indeed way more expensive, I admit. But the Win1 is in the same ballpark though. I bought mine brand new for the price of a Switch (instead of buying a Switch back then). And I don't understand your comment "lack any proper games of their own".

I played hundreds of proper PC games on the thing. I played Skyrim on this before it was even out on the Switch. So games on Switch are "proper games" and the same games on PC aren't "proper games"? If you're talking about first-party games, there are none on PC because the "PC" platform isn't owned by anyone. So basically, your argument is that it's a PC.

And it was far from mediocre. I mean, I had one, I should know. I spent hundreds, if not thousands, of hours playing PC games on this thing.

This device, for me, was something I did put in direct competition with the Switch, and bought over a Switch back then. And I never regretted that decision as it was a tons of fun. I kind of almost regret selling it, but oh well.

Saying this cannot be in direct competition with the Switch is being a bit intellectually dishonest, as I used it exactly in the same manner I'm using my Switch these days: mostly to play games on the go and occasionally on the big screen. Some games I play on Switch right now, I played them on this thing way before they were released on Switch.

I have a friend who still have both (GPD Win and Switch) and still much prefer playing on his GPD Win.

I smell a bit of Consoles vs. PC in your post. Personally, I play on all consoles + PC (have all of them) so I humbly consider myself a bit beyond all the fanboyism... And while nowadays I prefer my Switch and play on it all the time, I still say it's inaccurate to say nothing compares...

Unless you need something that does everything 100% the same way as the Switch, then nothing will ever compare to it... And thinking like this would also mean that no console could be compared to any other ever, as they all have something that distinguishes them from others....

Maybe for you, those devices aren't in competition. But I know many people who beg to differ. GPD devices usually sell very well and are often produced in multiple batches, and get multiple revisions. Surely, there are some people out there who think these devices are worth it for gaming... on the go or at home... like a Switch.
