I really like the look of the GPD Win Max 2 6800U rather than the 'switch' form factor.

But a 6800U spec handled with USB makes for a compelling setup imo, likely not this generation, but a future device like this or the win max etc, as a kickass little laptop/portable gaming setup, then bring it home, one cable in and you can connect a beefy ass GFX card and monitor, peripherals etc... this sort of setup has potential if some of the bottlenecks are improved over coming years.

I tend to think it's the most legal way they found to sell their product or just...take the money and run, it's a trusted website.
