I love my deck and I’m excited for the OLED model, but after using the ROG Ally for a few months it’s really hard to give up that VRR functionality…being able to turn off vsync does wonders for input delay (especially with emulation), and it makes having to worry about setting or meeting certain performance thresholds a non issue since it’ll always look smooth regardless of framerate (assuming you don’t drop below the minimum of course). It’s such a good feature for a device like this
I really want one, but man I’m kinda disappointed they didn’t go VRR
Input delay is something this subreddit don’t mention enough. The gamescope proton layer adds I put delay as well as turning on V Sync. As soon as you turn off V Sync many games have hitching.
Another issue I have with Deck is the D Pad position. It feels unnatural for 2D games especially fighting games. They should have had a smaller left touch pad and swapped the position of it with the D Pad location. These are the 2 main things that holds back the Deck for me
