Gpd win 5, Onexplayer fly apex

Yep that's why I recently sold my Steam Deck OLED after having the AYN Thor for several weeks now. I just got a Onexfly F1 Pro HX370 to replace my Steam Deck for everything I can't play on my Thor. I found myself picking it up might more frequently because it's not as bulky as the other PC handhelds.

PSA if you didn't read the text body. The current Apex Battery has some issues: [https://www.reddit.com/r/OneXPlayer/comments/1qwx7b9/onexplay\_apex\_battery\_issue\_video/](https://www.reddit.com/r/OneXPlayer/comments/1qwx7b9/onexplay_apex_battery_issue_video/) [https://www.reddit.com/r/OneXPlayer/comments/1qwnm68/confused\_about\_apex\_battery\_update/](https://www.reddit.com/r/OneXPlayer/comments/1qwnm68/confused_about_apex_battery_update/)

Hey guys and girls, I’m after a handheld that fits a few concrete criteria and I’d love your real‑world experiences. What I’m after - Primary vibe: quick sessions, bed gaming, snack-sized bursts of play - Screen: 6–7 inches is perfect; good image quality is a must - Audio: I’ll be using headphones, so built‑in speakers aren’t important - Buttons/triggers: avoid loud, clicky/clacky feedback if possible - Setup: not hard to get up and running; mostly plug‑and‑play - OS/library flexibility: future‑proofing is nice (a big library or easy OS upgrades) - Budget: around £800 What I value most - Longevity / “future-proof” potential (good software support, broad game library, easy to upgrade) - Comfortable ergonomics and quiet, non‑tacky controls - Solid display with decent brightness and color - Reasonable battery life for quick sessions - Portability as a bed‑friendly device Would love recommendations and real experiences - What worked well for you in day‑to‑day use? - Any gotchas (fan noise, battery life, reliability, learning curve)? - Is there a standout option under £800 that hits all or most of these? A few options I’m considering (for context) - Steam Deck (7”): Great library, easy to use, strong ecosystem, solid for future updates. Fan noise can vary by game and settings, but undervolting or power‑saving modes help. Best all‑round fit if you want a PC‑like library on the go. - Nintendo Switch OLED (7”): Incredible portability and very friendly setup. Quiet buttons, excellent handheld ergonomics, and a huge back catalog of cozy, bite‑size games. Not “PC‑style” future‑proof, but long support and strong first‑party ecosystem. - Windows handhelds (e.g., OneXPlayer Mini, AYANEO/other 7” Windows devices): Very flexible (PC games, emulation, PC apps). Usually pricier and can be louder under load; some models sit around £700–£800, which might fit the budget if you catch a deal. Heavier and sometimes shorter battery life, but excellent for a true “PC in your pocket” vibe. - Other considerations (used/refurb): It might be worth looking at gently used/refurbished devices to push into the £800 range with better specs or storage. If you’ve got a definite favorite or a negative experience with any of these, I’d really appreciate the perspective. Also happy to hear suggestions I haven’t listed—thanks in advance! TL;DR - Seeking a handheld under £800 for short, bed-friendly gaming with a 6–7" screen, quiet controls, easy setup, and solid future‑proofing. Steam Deck is a strong candidate, Switch OLED is great for portable chill vibes, Windows handhelds offer PC flexibility but may be louder/ pricier. What would you recommend based on real‑world use? I have no PC or console!

You didn't say you have a budget so in that case GPD Win 5 Or OneXPlayer Apex
