New Manjaro Linux Gaming Handheld from OrangePi
New Manjaro Linux Gaming Handheld from OrangePi
This is exciting! A gaming handheld from a great open source hardware company that makes SBCs like the RP5. It looks to have all the quality features and combines the best of all the handhelds I've seen. This has me really excited.
I am wondering though what gaming on Manjaro Linux is like if anyone knows. I've heard of Bazzite and Nobara as well as Chimera and HoloISO which are all focused around gaming. Does Manjaro ship with all the gaming features preinstalled?

This is a good looking piece of hardware, but i hope they keep the price low. That's the biggest thing that these sorts of systems have going for them is making a desktop ecosystem affordable, and if this is expensive I fear it'll be fighting an uphill battle against the steamdeck bc it seems most steamdeck competitors tout their windows compatability as an upside, and as far as most consumers are concerned that's true
Either way, if this is good (and I can afford it when it hits the market), this might be the handheld pc i pick up. Great looking chassis, good feature suite, hall effect sticks out of the gate, and it helps get me back to tinkering with linux more. Seems like a win all around
I 100% agree with everything you said. It seems like devices with the hardware that this tend to go for around a grand or a little more
