I need 1-2years to get a PC, so I want buy a handheld for collection games and doing some paper work. Steamos is very user-friendly, but legion go hardware is better. It difficult to choose. Can steam deck oled to play future 1-2 years 3A games？I prefer steamOS but very consider the futurity
Simply, how much are you going to use it as a true portable? If you’re almost always near power, something like a Legion Go will probably be okay, and give you the extra performance you imagine. If you’re going to be relying on the battery a lot or exclusively, though, the Steam Deck hands down is the better choice. At the same 15W, there’s actually not any handheld that truly beats it in performance. It’s only when you exceed that, that they start to pull away. The Steam Deck gets better battery life than anything else, even at 15W. You start pushing more power to get that extra performance, and you’re looking at an hour or less of play time.
Thank you so much, I will use the handheld at home or office for a long time. Perhaps I need to buy legion go.
Ive owned the deck / ally, returned ally. Had GO ordered and waited to try in comparison to a deck.
Hands down - the deck is the better screen. It’s legitimately, arguably, the nicest screen Ive seen on a portable. When you play a game with HDR, it can look insane.
The biggest reason to go deck over go is SteamOS.
Valve will continue to improve their product. Lenovo will not spend anywhere near the same amount of time and money on making their software better.
I would recommend the oled deck over any other handheld currently on the market. It’s not even close from a usability and future support lens.
