It does allow for better (integer) downscaling for 1280x800 since it is twice as much.

Very few people who are looking for a mobile gaming device like a Ally/Legion is cross shopping for a gaming laptop.

Also people complaining about VRR have no idea how it actually works (not accusing you or anything just a general observation I'm seeing).

VRR is useful for syncing your FPS and Hz, preventing screen tearing and saving a bit of energy. However, it's not a necessity. Even without VRR, a high Hz display, like 144Hz, still offers a fast and smooth visual experience, showing new frames quickly. Pro gamers sometimes skip VRR to get info on the screen faster. Also, there's no need for a perfect match between FPS and Hz; a high Hz display will show frames fast, regardless. While VRR can be a nice to have, it's not essential, especially for handheld devices with high Hz screens.

Why the heck does this have QHD on it with only a 9" screen? Waste of battery life and FPS. FHD is plenty for such a small screen.

Seems like it would combine well with $100 off $500 at Lenovo through Amex. Blue Cash Preferred here.

So... This or the base steamdeck 64 GB (recent sale) + TB SSD combo I just ordered?

It depends on how much you value the display, battery life and portability. The display on this is far superior, but it's also a behemoth of a device and because steamOS provides granular control of frequencies, TDP and frame rate you can stretch the deck's battery in a way that most likely isn't going to be possible on this thing.

My Amex offer expires on 10/29. The ship date is now Nov 2. So YMMV

Same question here. If they don't charge then it won't work

No VRR, not really superior except in resolution.
