I compared it to the yearly plan that showed up first. i was honestly not aware that there are different subscription tiers. when i used ps+ with the ps4 there was only one + as far as i know.
the power of the machine is dissapointing and i commented before comparing the ps5+ specs with the SM.
on the other side could it be a ok device if you want that formfactor, long softwaresupport and still have a pc that can be used for more than just playing games or watching tv.
Especially if youre not into AAA-gaming and more into Indie or Emulators. There you‘ll get a bigger Library than from a regular Console.
the price is also arround 7% more if you choose the SM over a comparable DIY according to gamers nexus so it seems fair i guess?
that being said i think the current SM is more a niche product and not for the masses.

The form factor is slightly smaller than itx and you can buy a pre-built itx pc. Software support is ridiculous, that’s already a feature in every pc and OS. Also, I don’t think the price is ok at all. If you’re going to take away upgradeability, it needs to be a lot cheaper than diy. I worry that this is going to be so niche that it’ll die a very quick death.
