There appears to be no limit to how chonky and eye-wateringly expensive PC gaming handhelds can get, with the latest behemoth being the Ayaneo Next 2. First announced back in November, the latest Windows handheld in Ayaneo's Next lineup is now up for pre-order, with a spec sheet that makes some of its rivals look modest.
