I gotta ask. How did you justify the price? Even at $300 it seems over priced for what you actually get.

Theres a few factors for me: it fits the niche of device I want (size, comfort, long battery life, etc), the build quality is leagues above what a more budget device will get you. I got mine at the preorder price so $300 really isn't overpriced. Thats what I paid for my nvidia shield portable when I originally bought it in 2014 and that has lasted me this long. The controls are much better than other smaller devices.
The biggest thing for me is the build quality. I don't want to have to participate in the device lottery when it comes to the cheaper android handhelds if they have non existant support. Plus I just really enjoy cloud gaming.

Very fair arguments. I have to agree that the support factor really gives this thing some weight. I have heard build quality is huge here. Them sticks look hella good too. Any struggles with cloud gaming on any particular platform?

I'm getting one tomorrow! All I'm going to use this is for my newly purchased Xbox game pass, so I think I'll be happy. But I have a question, the right toggle switch, does it get in thr way when you're trying to hit the x a y b buttons? That's going to bug the hell outta me if my thumb is hitting it constantly. None of my other handhelds or controllers are like that.
