I mean, your phone is probably not listening to you all the time for ad keywords. Maybe some random app you have installed is. Most likely what happened is you said something and then you or someone on your wifi network searched for it.
On the second point, I use an iphone for work and android phone personally. I agree with you that overall the iphone is a better package.

Most of them a power supply that maxes out at 120w vs the pi4 with its 15w power supply. My guess is at idle usage would likely be around 30w so still a decent amount above a pi but still cheap to run 24x7.

Funnily enough mine runs cyberpunk at a solid 44 while my 2080 super build struggles to hit a solid 72/144
Bearing in mind I have a 2k ultra wide...
Resolution works wonders.

Yeah, windows PC versus a near universal computer that can be almost whatever you need it to be.

Steam has not announced anything and every news outlet has been theorycrafting there's one but let's be honest it's the same people who have been saying the switch pro will be out for the past 5 years so take that with a huge grain of salt.

I'd honestly say it's 2-3 gens ahead of switch. Realistically, Switch games behave and look like PS2 games in higher res.

Why would I need a mouse? As you pointed out, joysticks work fine.
Just off the top of my head, I'd pit this HP against the steam deck. Especially at the deck's resolution.
At the $650 I paid for my deck it's even easier.

If you are busting out a mouse and controllers with your laptop there is no fucking way I'm believing you use it anywhere outside of environments like your home. Imagine trying to play a laptop with a controller on a subway vs a steam deck.
Care to link a decent gaming laptop for $400?

PS2 has had a lot of rapid advancement in emulation over the past few years; there's still some problem titles (MGS2/3, the Ace Combat series, the God of War series) that require extra beef to get to fullspeed, plus a few games like Silent Hill 2 and 3 that are a little glitchy regardless of your hardware unless you enable workarounds, but past that, if you have a quad-core that's either Haswell or later (for Intel) or running on some form of Zen (for AMD), and an even halfway decentish GPU, you can run 95% of the library fullspeed without issues.

I also have controllers that are going to be better than the deck's sticks and buttons. They're small and portable.

>As for the parts difference, you really can't think of a reason why anything extraneous in a laptop not needing to be present for a mobile device would allow for a budget to be different?
Can you be specific what you think is missing that's significantly detracting from the price? What is the deck missing that prevents it from having the functionality of a laptop?

For the vast majority of things that would require a track pad you have joysticks. There is a huge difference in the feel of a track pad vs a joystick.

Eventually, Steam Deck won't be capable of running the latest games. Just like you buying a laptop today and expecting no problems with titles five years down the line. Because Steam Deck is also fixed hardware just like a laptop. Until Steam Deck 2...

Playing on the Steam Deck's trackpad is a pain in the ass.
As Valve points out, the steam deck is just a PC. It doesn't have special, cheaper "gaming" parts.
