Good day!

I need help. I have enough savings to buy a decent laptop around the same price point as the 512GB Steam Deck. The problem is that laptops at this price point are horrible at gaming. So I am seriously considering getting the Deck instead. My usual workday includes writing code in PyCharm, accessing Github through browser, and MS Word and MS Excel. Does anyone here have a decent experience with using the Steam Deck with those applications? Thank you so much.

    If you’re the kind of guy who never brings their laptop outside their home, then a Steam Deck with an external mouse, keyboard and display can probably replace a laptop.

    If you want to use the Steam Deck as anything other than a gaming device outside of your home, you’re going to have a bad time.
