Brazilian company TecToy just announced Zeebo's successor, the PC handheld Tectoy Zeenix, and it's stronger than a Nintendo Switch or Steam Deck. lmao

Yeah, I'm not really sure why they do this with dedicated gaming devices either.
It's just silly.
>But I won't be able to play Valorant!
Who cares, just play the game it's a knockoff of.
Microsoft probably doesn't let device makers ship with windows 10 anymore. They want to pull the plug on that OS asap
I mean its not that hard.
Switch uses 2013 hardware and Deck uses a low end APU.
With a recent Ryzen CPU it would beat both, what has me puzzled is if they are going to assemble it on Brazil to avoid the 100% tax on gaming devices.
>100% tax on gaming devices
QRD? Monkebros have to pay the entire cost of a console in tax?
Anything gaming related has a 100% import tax.
Would the tax not apply if the system was assembled in Brazil? Or would the necessity of importing its parts still make it expensive?
It still would
.t Brasileiro
Xbox consoles here are assembled here on a factory and still cost as much if they were imported
The PS4 launched here costing around 4k reais and Sony stated half of that value was just taxes
Gaming and consoles here by law falls into the same category as slot machines, lotteries and bingo
When the PS3 came out, a major department store sold it for around $ 3720. Over SIX TIMES the original price. I recall that someone calculated: it was cheaper to fly to Miami, buy the PS3, spend a week in a nice beachfront hotel, and fly back to Brazil.
https://www.hardware.com.br/artigos/relembre-quando-o-playstation-3-chegou-ao-brasil-por-quase-8-mil/
Pretty insane how 3rd world countries are so poor yet everything is so expensive.
This is likely the future of all 1st world countries sadly. Global communism finally achieved, everywhere on earth equally shit
It's only expensive because of tariffs. Brazilians actually thought they could make their own game consoles to compete with the playstation and xbox because they are very stupid.
It would be like 40% instead 120%.
As of now we have to pay the entire cost of pretty much everything we import in taxes.
do the L
uhhhhhh socialism bros????
That's protectionism, not socialism. Whether the monkeys have any kind of national industry to protect is not relevant to the question.
Lula repeatedly tries to sabotage industry under the claim of proteccionism
>buys a gorillion tons of rice with tax payer money from the chinese
>wants to put it on market and sell it at below maket price
>wants people to pay for what they already bought
>is only doing this to perform a dump and force the agro industry to sell at a loss because its the one sector who doesnt want to play ball with him, so he wants to sabotage them and put MST (a landless hobo movement largely affiliated with crime and various left parties, led by rich israelites like Boulos who hold social support money hostage from poor people and have them work for their invasion org) thus having direct control of Agro
Which means its gonna turn to shit because the moment his corrupt ass takes helm of its going to just halt production to half and steal almost all of its budget
I hope you guys can some day find a way to fix your country
Civil war is the only way. Only a river of blood can cleanse our political system.
Will never happen. Brazilains are "broxas" who only enjoy killing random people and then pretend to be easy going and funny, but will never actually fight for something like improving the nation, only with the dude next door.
it really isn't that hard at all, the question is: is it financially viable? You have to figure out how much the customer base for steamdeck-like portables is willing to shill out for a unit. On top of that, you need battery life and for the unit not to set itself ablaze if it uses lots of power, even with a capable battery. Switch is definitely below-smartphone tier, but discussing it doesn't really make any sense here, because switch's job is to host nintendo games, and they don't really have any competition there.
deck is not as strong as it could have been but it is strong enough to do its job, while having an almost perfect price point not only for people who wanted something like that, but also enough to spark interest from ppl who never thought about needing one in the first place
i dont think the tech is advanced enough to create a viable Steam Deck competitor just yet
>Is it financially viable?
This. The real problem is that everyone is jumping on this market for whatever reason, and a small company can't compete with Asus and Lenovo when it comes to producing cheap electronics.
So why would I buy the Zeebo 2 for $1000, when the Rog Ally with the same exact hardware sells for $600. Aya Neo and GPD are getting fricked for the same exact reason, they don't have the economy of scale to compete with massive companies.
Still mean jackshit because optimization and price.
Optimization means jackshit when a new GPU makes everything run better.
>Switch uses 2013 hardware
*2015
Switch was only a few months older tech wise than MS and Sony were at their launches.
Technically Maxwell is from 2014 and the A57 is from 2013.
PS4 and Xbox One use GCN from 2012. The CPU (Jaguar) is from 2013... but AMD was so far behind at that point, Intel's Lynnfield from 2009 was better. So the year of release doesn't tell the whole story.
never trust a monkeyzillian with ANYTHING
Yeah.
>try to take a shower in brazil
>the poorly insulated electric shower head zaps you
>fall head-first into the poop paper bin because you can't flush down used toilet paper
Electric showers are safer though
>>the poorly insulated electric shower head zaps you
you never watched mythbusters anon
is phisicaly impossible for eletricity to travel through falling water because they turn into droplets when falling down
meaning the toaster shower is 100% safe and much more safer than having a rocket in your basement
And what about the wet wall right next to you? It's uniformly wet rather than droplets.
>wet wall right next to you?
last time i checked the porcelan square thingy on the walls does not conduct eletricity
>conveniently ignores the part about it being wet
but is not connected to the eletric socket meaning there is no way the eletricity can travel to the water because there is a layer of porcelan in between
and porcelan does not conduct eletricity
is like saying you are in danger when inside a bathtub because there are eletric sockets in the bathroom
is just static and it only "shocks" you if you have small fissures in your fingers
its phisicaly impossible for the thing to shock you
A hot shower that was installed correctly, with proper grounding, will never shock you. But the one in that pic is a serious wtf.
Goddamn, brown people are funny
The bin is because sewage system here sucks ass, piping too, it cant handle toilet paper
Blows my mind that americans think toilet paper is an important commodity, as seen back in the covid pandemic. They could just shower and wash their behinds properly when they're at home. Do they really just walk around with their butts smeared in feces? Imagine standing next to an american in the bus and being able to smell their shit through their pants...
No better metaphor can be made. Brazilians literally think their shit doesn't stink.
I've never met anyone who does that, everyone throws it in the toilet and takes a shower or uses a bidet.
Perhaps they are merdestinos or cariocas, that would explain their disgusting behavior.
Exactly, the real danger comes from the shower shorting and catching fire, and getting eletrocuted when touching the shower valves
Super safe
Out of all things to complain about, these always boggle my mind the most.
Electrical Showers are perfectly safe, most of the world uses them and it's never a problem.
Putting toilet paper on a bin is perfectly fine, most of the world does it.
>using toilet paper at all
Enjoy smearing shit on your ass.
>Muttmericans use toilet paper instead of bidets
>and it's stronger than a Nintendo Switch or Steam Deck
so it's ANOTHER one of them chinese phones that they couldn't sell with a shell added?
>Brazilian
>tech
Pick one
Anon, that's just a rebranded AYANEO that they will pretend it was made locally to avoid import taxes.
>Zeebo successor
We are so fricking back, bros.
As a Brazilian i don't even trust this shit. Every Brazilian PC is shit, every single one.
My Positivo monitor from 2012 is still working and I'm using it right now.
It seems the basic model is the Ayn Loki Zero, which is too weak to play any recent games; whereas the high-end one is the Ayn Loki Max, which is pretty decent.
How many Master System games can it hold?
exactly 1
All of them. (Just checked, the SMS fullset is a little over 200 megs.)

This shit is not significantly stronger than the Steam Deck, if it even is stronger at all.
The CPU and GPU are way better than the deck.
Why there is more ram in the lite version? Wtf
That's a typo, it's only 8 GB.
8gb is nothing for a Pc with window 11. Really not good for a game device.
Pro one will destroy SteamDeck even in the first world, Brazil won
damn I can't wait for even MORE brownoid shills
AYO TEACH
ANON HAS A ZEEBONK TECTONE IN HIS BACKPACK

Holy shit what's with these moronic names
How do you copy Steam Deck and Nintendo Deck and yet not understand the simplicity of a naming conventions
>no trackpad
>windows 11
bye
Lmao my fricking phone is stronger than the switch
>windows 11
into the trash it goes
handheld kino incoming
they have their own "Zeenix Hub", it's not just Win11.
btw the name is a mix of Zeebo and Phoenix, that is why it sounds weird.
>it's not just Win11
You realize that's not a plus right?
I wonder if the people trying to sell that shit don't realize it. Do they assume having extra bloat like that doesn't hurt the sales or what?
Zeenix chads ww@
it's over the switch and the deck, brasil is going to take over the market
Again, it's just a rebadged chink device.
That's pretty cool.
>Literally Who just announced Literally What, a portable PC that looks to be a Literally What, which is not a bad thing!
>And the presentation also named Literally What several times as part of their console lineage haha!
If brazil was smart they'd cut the taxes on their own products so this shitbox would be cheaper than a deck or switch. So at least they'd sell in their own country.
>Brazil
>Being smart
Yeah sure
>not taking a 6800W shower
ngmi
Why sell cheaper when you can tax and buy favelados with gibs?
>it's stronger than a 7 year and 2 year old handheld
Wow
It's going to use the same AMD chips everyone uses anyway. There's no other choice at the moment, we know exactly how it's going to perform: like the ROG Ally, the Legion GO, the AYANEO Kun and all the other Z1Extreme/7840U/8840U-based devices.
MSI tried using Intel and... yeah: https://youtu.be/y6vGRHDrkQs
Nvidia expressed interest in this market and Intel's Lunar Lake looks good, so things may change in the future. But for now, there's only ONE (1) viable choice and it's the 7840U and its clones.
I wonder when they'll start using arm chips instead of mobile desktop CPUs. It would be interesting to see how handheld windows 11 arm compares to these ryzen devices
Not that much better: https://youtu.be/SVz7oGGG2jE?feature=shared&t=765
Monkey bros we run this shit!!
Also: frick gaben for starting this portable pc shit
who?
Grift
>Tec Toy
One of our country's most pathetic companies, can't build even the simplest electronics without marking them up twice above the MSRP of an import. It's honestly baffling how Tec Toy still gets to live.
Why would anyone in their right mind buy a brazilian tech product?
It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter if its quality, if it has good games, if it runs well. The vast majority of us thinks that anything built here is shit and only imported shit is worth it, specially when it comes to electronics. No one will buy it at all
>anything built here is shit
and they are right
That is besides the point. I don't believe for a second that Tec Toy has the technological knowhow to manufacture something of this level. They will either ship from China with the Tec Toy logo already printed on it, or at most ship the parts and have it slowly assembled in Brazil.
Either way, will result in a device that is more expensive than just buying a Steamclone.
>ele comprou um shitch
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
>Brazilian
Into the trash it goes
I miss Tec-Toy+Sega when they brought good quality stuff to us... Now it's just emulated stuff
TEC-TOY could just release the original master system carts
>which is not a bad thing!
Top tier praise
>portable PC
>windows OS
Not video games. Also no one's buying this.
lol look at this monkey doing his tech CEO impression.
>and it's stronger than a Nintendo Switch or Steam Deck. lmao
>ryzen 3050e
>better than steam deck
macaco burro dum caralho, ainda bem que levámos o vosso outro, sabe lá deus onde o desperdiçariam
this shit is a rebadged Loki Zero and the price is probably going to be the same at around 240$
Brazil bros, will this invention finally catapult us out of south america and turn our monkey people into scholars?
badge engineering? yes, it'll turn brasil into a second world country
