Its really great! really good display, good battery, good customizability and freedom. It is even pretty cheap for the steam decks performance.

It’d a fantastic backlog killer. Main PC for new titles, steam deck for indies and patient gamer style games.

I got over 600 game and still play the same 5. I'm just able to do it comfortably at work now.

Steamdeck is for me everything even new ones like Armored Core, Cyberpunk etc… and indies and even old ones like half life. Everything possible through proton.

I’ll get a steam deck as soon as I can detache the controller and put it on my TV like the Switch. While the Deck is probably amazing, it’s what I need to get one, additional to the gaming PC. I always feel chained in, when my controller is made from one part only.

You can plug it into any USB hub to play it on the TV and connect any controller to play from the sofa. They even sell a dock!

Oh I didn’t know about that USB hub. Sounds good.

Downvoted for the cringe af name
FangedWyvern42@lemmy.world 1 year ago
It has a dock available.
smort@lemmy.world 1 year ago
Yeah I have a usb dock with HDMI plugged into my TV, and an old Xbox One controller paired to the Deck. Basically works the same as a docked Switch

Did they fix the joystick grinding in the OLED?

Played Moonlighter for almost 10 hours the other day without being plugged in…
Entropywins@kbin.social 1 year ago
Your telling me they removed the entirely functional, multiple hour lasting, 50 watt-hour, li-polymer battery pack...

Its slightly better than the normal steamdeck. I wouldn’t call it a radiant new dawn lol
BruceTwarzen@kbin.social 1 year ago
I disagree. Better display, better battery and they adressed a lot of problems with repairability under the hood.
Ugurcan@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I have the old one. Next iteration will have the same better display along with better cpu/gpu/ram, current battery is more than enough for a day of my gaming needs and I doubt I will ever need to touch a screw let alone a repair. It isn’t a “radiant” anything.
Hegar@kbin.social 1 year ago
My thinking exactly. This is just a really silly ad for a new product.
thorbot@lemmy.world 1 year ago
I’d like to respectfully say you’re fucking dead wrong. The display is gorgeous, the increased framerate is amazing, the battery life is SO MUCH BETTER and it downloads games and launches faster. On top of having more storage space on the LE edition. And the charge cable is LONGER. I was actually able to play over 3 hours of deep rock on a flight and still have some charge left. If you use the device a lot it’s a massive upgrade.

Ok so let me get this straight. 1-3 more fps, a brighter screen and a bit more battery is now considered revolutionary for portable gaming. If that were the case then the rog ally or one of the other handhelds would be considered more revolutionary for portable gaming.
