AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme (Zen 5 / RDNA 3.5), 32GB LPDDR5X, 8.8" 144Hz OLED (first true-black HDR1000 certified on a handheld), 74Wh battery, 1TB SSD, M.2 2280 + microSD expansion, dual USB4.

Xbox Handheld (Project Keenan)
Microsoft's first-party Xbox-branded gaming handheld, internally codenamed Project Keenan. As of July 2026, Microsoft has officially confirmed the device exists and is in development, but has not announced the final hardware specs, price, or release date. This page is updated as Microsoft confirms or denies rumors.
Nintendo Switch 2
Nintendo's next-gen hybrid console. Setup guides, dock-mode tweaks, and game-specific performance tips for first-party launches.
Steam Deck
Valve's PC gaming handheld running SteamOS (a custom Linux build). Designed to play the full Steam library on the go, with built-in controls, a 7-inch LCD or OLED display, and tiered storage options. Launched in 2022.
PlayStation Portable (PSP)
Sony's 2004 handheld — the first to bring near-PS2 visuals to a portable, with a 4.3-inch widescreen display and UMD optical media. Twenty years on it remains the most collected retro handheld: batteries and shells are still in production, the 2000/3000 revisions are cheap and plentiful, and Memory Stick adapters make storage a solved problem.
