I had a dream last night that my brand new fancy Steam Deck OLED had arrived and I opened it immediately only to be horrified that it was such a sunny day that all I could see on the screen was my own face reflected back at me. I was absolutely kicking myself over getting the 512GB instead of the 1TB version all because of a potentially more vibrant screen. I was researching the returns policy on Decks and then I woke up.
To clarify, I haven’t ordered a Deck OLED yet and am still debating in whether it will even be worth it considering I sold my OG Deck due to lack of use. Obviously the while screen debate is something that my brain has latched onto.
I think everyone is overreacting about this. Either way the device is awesome. I’ve loved my OLED Switch so I doubt I’ll know what I’m missing by going with the glossy screen.
Additionally, matte screens are a sensory nightmare for me so I think I can deal with seeing my ugly mug during loading screens.
How would the matte screen trigger your sensory issues if I may ask?
