James is a more recent PC gaming convert, often admiring graphics cards, cases, and motherboards from afar. It was not until 2019, after just finishing a degree in law and media, that they decided to throw out the last few years of education, build their PC, and start writing about gaming instead.

as we pointed out in a previous story), the Acer Nitro Blaze 7 is suspiciously similar to the Terrans Force Handle 5. At first glance, the comparison is undeniable. Buttons are in the same place, and the curves of the machine appear to be identical, from what I can see. The only real differences, aesthetically, are Acer's model has a Nitro button down the bottom left and it has a few more decals around the thumbsticks, D-Pad and corners.

Outside of this, the display is the same size on both handhelds and both offer the same refresh rate at 144 Hz. The battery for both devices is exactly 50.04 Wh, too. Though we don't know the inner workings of a company like this, both companies could have potentially bought this same design from a third party, effectively allowing both companies to work around the R&D costs of designing their own build. We don't yet know how both companies ended up with such similar designs.

Most of what sets others apart is how it is built, how it looks, or what price it comes in at. Part of this is that handheld gaming PCs are a convenient bit of tech, so relying on experimental builds could cost that user experience. Another is that there really aren't many handheld-friendly chips to choose from, though. This is why it's not too strange that Acer's upcoming device emulates most of the most popular handheld gaming devices right now.
