Someone has been able to test SteamOS in a snapdragon tablet or laptop?

Pure SteamOS not Rocknix or Droid Deck, also, no phones, I don't think SteamOS should focus on becoming a phone OS, there are solutions like Droid Deck and Game Native in android and their respective IOS counterparts for that. I also know this is very new and isn't good for day to day use. I only have the curiosity if someone has been able to test it.

ArmadaOS is as close as I’ve come. Works great.

I wanna see pure steamOS on things like the retroid pocket 6 etc. That’s gonna be where the real tests will be had. On proper standalone handhelds.

I'm running ArmadaOS on the RP6 and it works just how you'd expect a mini steam deck to

Yeah I ran gamescope steam on some snapdragon laptops. I think I have a bug though performance is low 🫠

Like 5hz on Crysis. So I could not answer does it run crysis 😔🔫

Technically not pure SteamOS, but some people did similar on X with the Steam Frame packages

Probably an issue with the GPU driver. I got Crysis (with Crysis-ce) running at 20-30 fps on a Snapdragon QCS6490.
