I would rather a long life cycle. Devs shouldn’t be releasing unoptimized games in the first place. The current deck is powerful enough to run most things and a release every year means worse support and more e-waste in addition to minimal advances in tech to justify the cost. It also fragments the market for supported on deck status.

Its not supposed to replace a top of the line gaming rig.

Exactly!
Yearly phone releases are already too much, let alone a entire gaming handheld 😵‍💫
