Steam Deck won't have yearly refreshes because it's "not really fair to your customers", says Valve (archive.is)

Legion Go, released a year ago, follow-up announced, no release date

ROG Ally followed up by the Ally X a year later but still sold (just like Valve is still selling two hardware versions of the Deck)

Then you have no name brands that do flood the market

to be fair, the ally x is a revision of the same product. same chip. making some functional changes like that is similar to saying the steam deck oled is a new generation of devices.

That's my point, saying only Valve and Nintendo have a release schedule that's more than a year long is disingenuous
