I mean ya can't really evaluate the hardware and ignore the software. The hardware won't do anything without it.

Additionally Valve was the first to my knowledge to incorporate actually comfortable hand grips (at the expense of size), gyros, and trackpads.

Any handheld that's not just a basic emulator is totally nullified by their garbage software (in my opinion).
