Huh, pretty rare for a big company to offer something extra for an older device which they’re not directly making money from anymore. Nice!

Well congrats on the big hand, I guess! This is the first time I’ve seen someone asking for phones to be larger rather than smaller; I wonder why they stopped making the Pixel XL devices.

How big are your pockets!? Seriously, 7 inches was the size of the Nexus 7, the first tablet I bought. Not the kind of device you could use with one hand!

The 7a is massive, how big are your hands‽

Brain Butterfield has cornered the market already

Hopefully a small pain which will encourage better behaviour overall in the future. Hopefully.

Could be as simple as blue sky having the money behind it to advertise it more

I remember reading like a year ago that they wanted to get it on other handheld devices first (which this post looks to cover), so don’t hold your breath but hopefully it’s a step closer

Sticking on a streamer who you can just listen to chat while they happen to be playing a game is just a newer version of having the TV or radio on in the background while you do other stuff. Sometimes we just want to chill and not have to focus!

You don’t have to exclusively play new big-budget games with high spec requirements, an old laptop will play decades of old PC games as well as plenty of newer indies, or you can just go on eBay and buy someone’s last-generation console along with all their controllers and games for the cost of a brand-new game or two!

This actually looks pretty fun, f1 meets micro machines or original GTA. I vaguely remember playing something like it on a Windows 9X machine called something like F2000.

Oh wow, this is going to make for some confused and misleading posts and articles in the next few days!

All games are like this

Speak for yourself, this is the first game I’ve played since PoGo came out that even has microtransactions in it!

Yeah basically the same, though depending on where you’re coming from the exchange rate might be a bit better!

Well I run !freegames@feddit.uk so I end up filling the backlog with freebies faster than I can play them anyway!

Summit does too

A healthy attitude to take. Having a Deck is finally letting me get through the backlog, I’m not going to start adding to it again!

Oh that’s cool, I’d not even considered using it to control a mouse

They’re apparently worth a fair bit now if you’re looking to just get rid of it
