Pricing probably held them back

You mean like the GPD Win Mini? Which also has the same processor.
-
not the ones at a comparable price point. the ones at a comparable price are super underpowered compared to modern handhelds.

That's fair, but they often don't have similar features. I don't think there is anything similar to the Max 2 on the market.

Check out the MNT Pocket Reform as well

Might be worth getting one second hand just to play older games on?

I adore my GPD Win Mini, they're the only ones putting out good pocketable clamshell devices and I adore them for it

I use the GPD pocket and its magical when flying to roll up with a laptop on a plane with a 9-inch screen. My model even has an i7 in it so it can handle some games. Only major complaints is that I had some issues getting the screen to play nice with wayland (Ive since fixed it, it was just effort) and its keyboard is an ergonimic train wreck.

Yeah the native portrait screens they use cause all kinds of weirdness on Windows for games, but I've solved that by running Bazzite. I only use mine for gaming most of the time, my Win Mini's 7840U is a fantastic chip both for hooking up to a lapdock for software dev and for handheld gaming.
I've only flown a few times but it's been a great way to pass the time
