It's amazing.

It has the ease of console with (nearly) the library of PC.
I've been able to play current AAA titles, and the original Monkey Island.
It can Emulate pretty much everything the console market has as well (I mean, the stuff that a PC can emulate No Xbox One / Series X/S or PS 4/5).

And two features that don't seem as useful as they are.
It's a dedicated device for gaming
Its sleep mode works well

This means I can just pick it up, play for 10 Minutes until I get called to do something else again, pause, put it to sleep, and pick it up a week later.
