I’m a handheld gaming PC connoisseur — I currently own a Steam Deck, Asus ROG Ally, and Lenovo Legion Go, and I’m already planning my next upgrade. It’s no secret that now isn’t the best time to buy into the PC gaming handheld market. The global RAM shortage is driving the cost of component pricing upwards, and those price hikes eventually hit consumers. Handhelds appear to be particularly vulnerable, as Lenovo’s base-model Legion Go 2 recently climbed 36% in price. The Steam Deck went out of stock due to market conditions, and now that it’s back, the handheld costs hundreds more than before.
