But to run really any modern game you have to put this thing in "performance mode" which uses 25 watt TDP and then you get 90 minutes battery life. And even then in practice it might not perform as well as the Steam Deck (source: RetrogameCorps) even with half the battery life.
The chip in this thing is miserable and it's false marketing to call it a Z2 chip when it's actually a Zen3+ chip while the Z1 Extreme is Zen 4. That's right: the "older" chip in the ROG Ally and original Legion Go is actually newer.
So, you know, personally I wouldn't get it. I would recommend Steam Deck OLED or ROG Ally.
This is currently the lowest price for this variant, so the $50 price difference would be worth it.

I agree with OP that, if you want Steam OS, it would make sense to sideload it onto this one. It's officially offered by Valve, and there's a bunch of written and video tutorials to make it less intimidating.
