    A couple of days ago I sold a PC with a 4080 and bought a simple laptop for editing and a steam deck for games, I never regret it, I’m not tied to my workplace, I can mount it on the couch and play there, of course the performance suffers, but it’s perfect for my tasks.

      When you can be grateful for having medium/low preset with 30-40 fps (and also miraculously 60 fps) you will never need gaming spec just for gaming. In my case im too lazy to game on my 2070 super despite having far more power

    I saw a lot of steam deck videos, before I buyed my own. The biggest surprise for me, after my own experience: no one talks about the ergonomy of the deck. It fits like a glove! It's such a good feeling, just to hold the deck.

    • @Sayject
      @Sayject  3 дні тому

      Exactly!!!! it’s absolutely amazing. I don’t have huge hands, but out of all the handheld I’ve ever used even though the steam deck might be huge for some it fits fantastic in the hands. Absolutely love it and I can’t wait for valve to make another. I’ll be taking it right off the shelf as soon as it drops.

    • @Woupsme
      @Woupsme 3 дні тому

      If you want to make it even more ergonomic you can buy some "cushions" to put onto the back buttons to make them even more comfortable and easier to press.
      That's probably the accessory I've been most happy and impressed by.

    I bought the Steam Deck a few weeks ago as a travel buddy for long flights (I travel to Asia a ton for work) and an addition to my PC, not a replacement. And I couldn't be happier. It really holds its own very very well all things considered. Interestingly enough I love to use to also just lazing on the couch.. But would I buy one to replace my PC? No.

However, I’ve been playing more story-driven games lately, and I’ve been enjoying them while relaxing on the deck. I’ve been playing Spider-Man on Red Dead Redemption on it, and I love it.

      I understand your concern for sure, but with any handheld it’s kind of expected whereas the Nintendo switch you can just buy new joy cons.

    As someone who has been gaming since the late 70's, early 80's, portable gaming has always been my thing, even when what was offered was Game & Watch style single game electronics. I haven't had a gaming PC in ages, and I never used it when I did, and when the Deck came along, it was the answer to my gaming prayers of 40+ years. I got the OLED in late July for my B-Day and I haven't stopped using it since. I wanted a Deck most for emulation, and I have yet to install a single one, as I've been so busy playing PC games. It truly is a jack of all trades, and master of many device, and I probably won't be buying anything else until the Deck 2 comes along.

I used to play on a beefy desktop setup most of the time, but working and studying as a designer I spent most of my day either in the office or meetings and arrangements with clients or I'm at college. With the Steam Deck I can take my games wherever and play basically whenever. It also got me playing through my backlog, like games I always wanted to play for years but never got to before I had the Deck. So yeah, awesome handheld. Also it did save my butt when my pc was on maintenance I used the Deck as a backup device for work.

      Coming from someone who was in the same spot you were in earlier this year, i've gotta say that the button and joystick layout is 10x more comfortable than it looks.
      I have big hands myself, and I wouldve thought that id've had to cramp my thumbs to press the DPad and Letter Buttons, but with Valve being the geniouses they are, the transition from the joysticks to buttons/dpad is fluid and so comfortable.
      Honeslty I cant even tell you which controller it feels most similar to, because to me, its more comfortable than all of them. (Xbox, Playstation, Switch etc.)
      For me, I was lucky a friend brought his over to show me, but for you, if you're willing to take a stranger's word, id say the leap of faith is 100% worth it.

Its a best of both worlds situation and I am pretty happy with my purchase. I am highly leaning towards the new MSI claw 8, when it launches here in Malaysia during quater one but from a person who had the LCD for a year and the oled now for another (2 years of steamdeck baby ), its been worth it :)

    The only thing I wonder is if the LCD one battery is going to be too bad.
    Also, I agree that a good screen is even more important than ultra settings, proper contrast can enhance light perception way more than higher shadow setting.
    Maybe I should wait and go for the Oled...

    I bought a Legion Go a month and the truth is that I use the legion go as pc and tablet. for games I always grab the steam deck oled instead of the legion go. the deck is much more comfortable and has many advantages such as the simplicity and efficiency of SteamOS, the ergonomics, the battery. the oled screen, the return to play literally in 3 seconds after pressing the power button and many other things, such as trackpads, the backup of valve and the huge community, the control profiles of the Community, etc. Long life to Steam Deck

    I've been playing on my Steam Deck for a few months. Haven't played on my gaming PC or consoles except for the Switch, mainly because it's also portable. Love the OLED screen on both. I'm currently finishing up The Division 2 on the Steam Deck. There's been a few sections where the performance dropped, but for the most part it's been great. Also play a ton of other games on it.
    I was looking at the Legion Go for the games that aren't backwards on the Steam Deck but I've since decided not to. And I LOVE that it has track pads for when needed.
    I've been to lazy to install other installers for my EPIC and GOG libraries and emulation.
    I have a RTX 2070 Super and plan on building a new PC when the 5070/5080 comes out. I also stream and other PC stuff and I still have a lot of games that just play better on a PC.

    Its great, i love it and i still use it, but its age is beginning to show. These games coming out just are too much for it.
    On top of this, cloud gaming is starting to get pretty decent. Meaning i can bring my phone and phone controller with me, allowing it to be more portable and play more modern games.
    For that reason i cant recommend getting a steam deck now.

    Had my Steamdeck oled for about 6 weeks, havnt touched it for 3 weeks because I been busy playing on my PC... Portable gaming is great if you're often not home and travel for work or something. That's not me, I'm always home if I'm not at work. No portable could ever compare or replace my PC. How can a 7" Screen possibly compete with my 55" 4k Oled TV with Full Atmos Surround Sound? It can't, I'm not going to waste my High End Gaming Experience on a tiny screen. Seamdeck is great for old PC games I wont play on my PC or for Emulation. Im not Playing Cyberpunk or God of War Ragnarok on this little toy machine bro... If that's what you wanna do it's your prerogative but I think you're missing out on half the Experience... I want to Experience Games not just play them.
