Valve has given us what we wanted, even better features. I want an OLED model.

The problem: I own an LCD model, and it just died on me. The Charger IC burned out on me, and its passed my 1 year warranty.

After watching Gamers Nexus’s latest steam deck OLED comparison video, it becomes apparent valve really wanted to push this refresh because there were problems with the original model that had to be addressed. Namely the Charger IC, which ran way too hot in my case as well as others, that destroyed the decks costing valve hefty RMA losses.

I do think the OLED will have less issues, but after getting burned with the OG model, it is difficult to trust again.
