u/Natanael — Natanael

From the OEM standpoint no, but from the component standpoint the RAM makers are charging far more than the production cost and all of that certainly isn't going into new production

No idea about the buttons but the joystick ought to not be loud. Check the video reviews if you want to judge how it sounds

Prediction: some collector of old gadgets will set up a computer room with dystopian vibes (old broken CRT screens, various anachronistic electronics, etc), then have their VR/AR glasses repaint the room as some futuristic base, and pretend they're living in some cyberpunk world

Tldr escaping reality, but pretending you're escaping _another_ reality

Solvable by moving the locking mechanism out of the port and making one that you can retrofit to any cable

They really just need to demand that open formats are implemented in parallel with any proprietary ones, with no artificial feature/performance disparity allowed.

That kills any incentive to keep the proprietary ones locked down because eventually the open formats will be available throughout the ecosystem and users will have devices with support in the entire pipeline. Then users will simply no longer want to deal with the locked down formats for long and nobody will want to sell them.

I have good eyes, the zoom won't help me because it doesn't add pixels to the frame (maybe unless you're downsampling?). I want more physical pixels, and then higher resolution text to make use of it!

More stacking of layers (like 3D cache) and more efficient architectures and nodes will bring it closer.

However, nobody's ever going to beat TDP. Anything you can fit into a handheld can be multiplied several times over in a stationary console.

That's incredibly difficult in compact form factors. Modular frames and connectors would also add weight, etc. So far you can basically replace the SSD and spare parts like the joystick. But I'd certainly like to see them try. We're not going to see them make the CPU or GPU replaceable, but I've seen stuff like electrically activated glue for attaching components like screens while keeping it repairable because it's easy to release with electrical activation again. Would be cool to see Valve make use of stuff like that.
