I mean, you're basically describing the mini-pc form factor. I'm not sure exactly where the steamdeck lies but the last couple of years these laptop CPU based systems have been pretty amazing for what they pack.

The one big (to me) advantage of the Steam Deck is that it's a static system, this way many games have a preset specifically for the deck, usually automatically applied on boot.

No need to spend hours adjusting settings and scouring the internet for That One Setting that will make it run smoothly.

Even CP2077 runs great out of the box on it - and it's nigh-unplayable on PS4 level hardware.
