That may sound weird to you, but my favorite devices are those that grew on me and became special.
Like the Nokia N900, my first Gameboy or my favorite X24/X60 thinkpads. They have served for years and have a place in my heart.
My steam deck became special too as it took this type of special place.
I will not abandon the poor thing to the siren of a lightly upgraded hardware.
We have still great gaming times to live.
I’m tempted but the more I think about it the more I think i will hold off… my personal situation is that i have a 1yr 3 month old 256 Deck that’s been upgraded to 2tb of storage internally and a 1 tb micro, the screen is the only real big improvement, the new more efficient soc and slightly better battery are nice but let’s face it everyone is mainly jumping ship for the oled panel, for me not as big a need if I want a better screen to look at on a handheld I grab rog ally with a 1080p lcd that’s vrr capable, I know it’s not oled but for a ips panel it’s quite nice. I’m sure my deck will last me till a proper deck 2 is released.
