- Valve has revealed SteamOS for other handhelds is coming in “March sometime.”
- The OS should be installable on the liked of ROG Ally and Legion Go.
- The general release date for PC is still unknown and we hope it happens soon.
One of the questions that users have had since the release of Steam Deck is “When is SteamOS coming to other handhelds and PCs.” Valve’s answer to this has been “Soon,” but that has changed. While the general release of SteamOS for PCs is still unknown, Valve has kind of revealed when SteamOS will be available for other handheld devices.
One of Valve’s lead designers Pierre-Loup Griffais told The Verge that the first SteamOS beta for other handheld devices will arrive sometime after March sometime. This isn’t surprising, since Valve has been adding support for ROG Ally’s ( review ) extra keys as part of the recent SteamOS updates.
This comes weeks after Valve came out with the official SteamOS guidelines . It indicates the imminent arrival of SteamOS on handhelds other than the Deck. This is followed by the announcement of Legion Go S handheld that is set to come with SteamOS preloaded.

In general, we just want to make sure we have a good pathway to work together on things like firmware updates and you can get to things like the boot manager and the BIOS and things like that in a semi-standardized fashion, right?
At the moment, we don’t have a list of all handhelds that Valve will end up supporting. But it’s confirmed that the Ally and Legion Go are some of them. That said, if you want to install SteamOS right now, the folks behind Bazzite have done a fantastic job. The installation is quite easy and the overall experience, as per most users, has been great.
I do wish Valve slated a SteamOS ISO release date for PCs. I’m aware of the potential issues with NVIDIA drivers, but the firm has done a lot in the past year to make drivers great on Linux. I hope to install SteamOS on my PC and bid Windows adieu, forever.

- Movano is coming out with their new EvieAI coming to their smart rings.
- It is post-trained on 100,000 medical journals, including FDA-approved content cross-referenced from Harvard, UCLA, and Mayo Clinic.
- The AI chatbot achieves high accuracy rates and doesn’t provide answers to unknown topics.
Nearly every device at CES has AI labeled all over it, given its flexibility of use and marketability. But its incoherence and the room for hallucinations make it a poor choice for medical advice. So, companies stray away from it because of the major repercussions it can have on someone’s health and life. But smart ring maker Movano is coming out with their new health and wellness LLM called EvieAI, offering more reliable medical advice.

So EvieAI will only be pulling its information from this data set reducing its chances of hallucinations. The results speak for themselves as the answers from the AI chatbot are 99% accurate. That’s also because EvieAI confirms whether your query tracks with the Movano’s training data. The AI will also follow industry-standard encryption methods. Since chats are deleted periodically, no one will be able to track them back to the users.
Movano’s CEO John Mastrototaro also mentioned that the AI doesn’t shy away from saying no. If you ask anything related to a topic it hasn’t been trained upon, “it’s not going to tell you because it doesn’t have any information about that” according to Mostratotaro. He further added, “I think that it’s okay to say no if you don’t know the answer to something,”
Movano has recently re-released their Evie Ring to customers which addresses feedback on sleep data and heart rate accuracy. The company has also received FDA clearance for the EvieMED ring which is aimed at remote monitoring and clinical trials of patients. The beta version of the EvieAI will be rolling out starting January 8th to current Evie Ring users in their companion app.
Movano is trying to do something that can change the way people perceive AI. Training their LLM on just medical journals will for sure improve the accuracy of results, and they are going to be better than other general AI models. However, even Doctors coincide with each other on the recent development of new techniques and technologies. So its accuracy and how correct it stands with its answers will be interesting to see.
