A Raspberry Pi CM5-powered handheld with a 10,000mAh battery, TrackPoint, and tactile keyboard is preparing for launch. Its open-source pitch sounds familiar, but the execution might not be.
I have a Clockwork Pi uConsole and with even just one 18650 I can easily play something classic like Roller Coaster Tycoon for a couple hours. They’re not as bad as you’d imagine.
It’s okay, but the size is the actual issue. You always think a handheld keyboard on a phone feels too small until you bump up to that size. Your thumbs just reach everything, but especially when you factor in the aluminum case and its weight, you’re not going to be journaling on it. It’s more for tasks with light point and click interaction with the occasional data entry. Hence why RCT is one of my go to experiences on it.

How does it (thumb) type?

No, that’s terrible.
