Hey, so I stumbled across this wild piece about Microsoft’s gaming things – basically, their handheld console shenanigans. It’s like they’re on this see-saw between doing their own Xbox handheld or boosting Windows 11 for gaming gadgets. Heard about this through the grapevine (or Windows Central, if you must know). Anyway, Microsoft seems to be chilling on their own Xbox handheld to jazz up the Asus ‘Kennan’ project instead. Kinda makes you wonder — are they onto something, or just chasing their own tail?
Oh, and apparently, some folks are loving the way SteamOS shakes hands with Windows 11 handhelds. Reminds me of trying to mix peanut butter with Nutella – strange combo, but you might just dig it. Like the Lenovo Legion Go S, which is all buddy-buddy with both systems. Only downside? Gaming’s sweet spot, Game Pass, takes a hit. But hey, some people are okay with that for the smooth ride SteamOS gives.
Now, if you were lost in space (or just not paying attention), here’s the gist. Microsoft was on a double track: making a nifty Xbox handheld and teaming up with Asus for ‘Project Kennan.’ Rumors are a bit like floating bubbles you can’t quite catch, but word is, Kennan’s gearing up for a debut before we hit New Year’s sparkles. And rumor has it – the device is pretty much ready to roll.
So, what’s up with Microsoft’s elusive first-party gizmo? It’s like wanting to cook a feast but deciding to order takeout. They had plans for a straight-up Xbox-in-your-hand type thing, but it’s now in limbo. With SteamOS muscling into the game like some unexpected plot twist, Windows 11 isn’t the sole sheriff in town. These handhelds can run both Windows 11 and SteamOS, like they’re hedging their bets.
Anyway – or was it actually… moving on. You wanna keep your ear to the ground, Tom’s Hardware is apparently the source to follow. Feels almost like chasing breadcrumbs in a tech forest, but sometimes you find the neatest spots when you’re lost, right? If you do end up following them, hit that button or whatever. Ah, tech news – a swirling storm of surprises and missed turns.
