Handheld sessions at home or on the go, plus docked play when you want a living-room console feel.
- Start with the built-in controls profile, then add external pads for docked sessions.

Known issues
- Higher performance presets can drain the battery quickly.
- Fan noise depends on workload and system profiles.
