killamch89 Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Handheld PCs pack desktop GPUs in a clam‑shell or console form factor - what’s next? Better battery tech, foldable screens, cloud hybrid modes, or detachable controllers? Will ARM‑based chipsets overtake x86 for efficiency, or will niche AMD custom APUs rule? How will digital storefronts adapt - unified launchers, cross‑buy titles, or expanded mods support? And what social features like built‑in streaming, co‑play invitations, achievement sharing will define the next generation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 I believe the future holds incredibly powerful, yet more efficient, PC gaming handhelds. Expect longer battery life, even better screens (OLEDs becoming standard!), and improved operating systems that seamlessly blend desktop flexibility with console-like ease of use. Cloud gaming integration will also be key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion, Modular upgrade systems where you can swap out GPU modules, RAM, or storage like changing cartridges will make handhelds future-proof and customizable, similar to how Framework laptops are revolutionizing portable computing.
