Changed my order on the Mecha Comet. I've downgraded because a.) I can get by on lesser processor power at the moment b.) it won't suck the battery balls dry and c.) I'm impatient. #Mecha #MechaComet

Mecha Comet upgraded to 8 GB RAM, with all extensions (keyboard, gamepad, I/O), and 128GB storage costing USD 427

Prototype of the modular Linux handheld Mecha Comet

Does anyone know what to call the design aesthetic of the #MechaComet?

It’s more colorful than most #neumorphic or #softui

It looks like an @androidarts.bsky.social or pixel art design brought into the real world with soft matte mid-tone pastel plastics.

Mecha Comet looks like a fun little modular Linux handheld Another handheld! Although not a gaming handheld like you may have been thinking. The Mecha Comet is a small handheld modular Linux computer around the size of a phone.

Those cores are terribly slow and old and seeing them really prevents me from buying gadgets.
