    not likely to upgrade at the moment, but i couldn’t be happier that they’ve released this refresh. valve are great at proof-reading their homework before turning it in; they know that there are still a lot of people yet to buy a SD who are likely to do so now they’ve sweetened the deal. according to the replies on this, there’s a fair few happy to buy a new one and sell on their current model (establishing a strong second hand market is a big plus).

    valve also loves to trial certain tech before they really figure out how to use it; the steam controller pads weren’t quite the huge revelation they might’ve hoped for, but they led us to incredible touchpad implementation on SD with accompanying software support. imo, including an oled screen on this model all but guarantees the implementation on SD2 will be even better :)
