Maybe I'm in the minority, but I feel like this looks worse than the original model. Sure, it's thinner, but it looks like a 2000s-era AlienWare design.
Not including a vertical stand is an odd choice, as well. I get that console hardware is typically a loss-leader in general, but not including something so basic that only costs $30 just seems like unnecessary nickle-and-diming.

Was the original not also an Alienware kinda design?
As shallow as it is, that’s one of the reasons I’ve been waiting for a refresh to buy one. I thought the OG was gaudy and trying too hard to look “futuristic” for me to want to have it next to my TV. Seems the slim carries on the tradition unfortunately…
