I haven't used bazzite before but was looking into handhelds for my spouse and was curious if anyone has installed bazzite on a GPD Win 4, I heard some kinks hadn't been worked out with SteamOS on that hardware so I was curious about people's experiences. Or rather is that hardware more than needed? Would she be better off with a unit that comes with SteamOS for cheaper as it runs everything you have thrown at it?

I haven't used a Legion Go S, just my original Go, which has a roomy enough trackpad. The Go S looks like it's barely the size of the top part of my thumb and review have widely panned it as useless. I do have to lift my thumb still to mouse entirely across the screen, so I can't imagine what that's like with the smaller trackpad.
