I've yet to see another handheld that has touchpads like the Deck. IMO those are a must-have because a lot of older games especially don't have good controller support.
one of the recent announcements had them. Forgot which one, though
Ayaneo Next II seems to have two trackpads and Lenovo Legion Go 2 only one.
Zotac zone just released one with both. Lol
Agreed. The touchpads are one of the key points why the Deck is so great to me. I could live with only one, but it really requires at least one touchpad; ideally two.
