So far I'm really enjoying my new GPD Win 4. Having a kryboard built in is really a game changer. I usually use my Rokid Max as a screen since the Win 4 is a bit small for getting much work done. I like the built in keyboard more than my Rii 8+ since it has two shift/ctrl/alt keys which makes running shortcuts easier.

Sadly desktop mode in chimera OS runs in raw wayland so the controller keybindings don't work and neither does xdotool for nerd-dictation. I'll figure it out soon enough :)

My setup. 🥰 It feels more dense but it's way easier to hold in one hand than a steam deck. Also bought the GSM module so hopefully I can get a data sim into it >:)

@mauve wait how do you actually get work done on that? Are you wearing at glasses? Is there a keyboard ? Whattttt

@fleeky There's a keyboard yeah. Also set up my speech to text engine last night. I usually use the glasses but the lil screen is okay for basic web browsing and gaming.

@mauve you can use that keyboard as a daily river? wow , i am just impressed you've managed to find a way to do this.

@fleeky Unsure yet! I still need to configure it a bit more before I can daily drive it. I need to find a way to launch the desktop in a gamescope shell so that the keyboard events from the controllers can be properly passed through.

So far the keyboard has some more convenient features than my Rii i8+. It's defs heavier and requires my fingers to reach further. Luckily my fingers aren't short. :P
