Page of Steam Deck OLED explicitly says what it is - a “PC gaming device”.
Its a PC In a way it can run windows
So can the xbox but it is cut down
deck can run full win 10 and 11 no issues so id say PC
I abandoned my console for the Steamdeck so for me its the latter
So, if you abandoned a console for a PC, it makes PC a console suddenly? Man, come on!
This is easy. It’s both, it has a Steam OS console partition and a Linux pc OS partition (or windows if you choose to install it). No reason to get caught up in terminology.
Steam OS IS a Linux. Man, come on, even manufacturer just told you it’s a PC, and you still continue this bullshit about it being “both”.
Angry much?
People can argue all they want. The fact of the matter is Steam Deck is a portable PC. You may treat it as a console, but nothing changes the fact that it is a portable PC.

Maybe I’m not into labeling but clearly it’s a Linux based portable pc that can be played handheld vs a laptop with m+K or Xbox controller. Now if you said a Nintendo switch yes that’s obviously a console.
