If you are not familiar with streaming from your PC to your deck, here is a reminder that it is really helpful especially with very demanding games like Alam Wake 2 to be able to render in 800p or even super sampling it a bit to 1200p and watching it on the new OLED screen at its full high settings and ray tracing glory.

    For those who couldn’t buy an OLED steam deck and have a gaming pc, just use sunshine and moonlight to stream to your mobile device. If you have a relatively modern android device or an iPhone, that is literally an OLED screen right there. You can stream your games to it and experience HDR OLED that way.

      I’ve actually been doing this minus the OLED, using 8bitdo pro 2 controller. I call it the 8bitdeck 😅. So far my experience is smooth af with a Redmi note 9 pro Max phone, however occasionally I had internet issues but otherwise it’s pretty great. Steam deck is too costly for me plus they don’t even sell it here officially so the only way I could get it is if I get a bonus
