That's a matter of opinion.
The steam deck probably wins on value for money and on number of sales

For those people with the spare cash one of
the more expensive, more powerful Windows ones may be king because it
has better performance.

Supposedly the Nintendo switch runs FreeBSD with a proprietary kernel.
Don't quote me on that.
