Yes 100%. I use it docked 95% of the time as my main “rig,” and play a ton of games even at native 1080p and they play great.

I didn’t, now i use it docked 95% of the time. Its basically my “rig”

Best thing to do:

Get a dock, plug it into tv or monitor. Then turn off tv or monitor. This way it stays on, but the deck display does not.

As someone else said, you can actually upgrade the RAM in the deck, but it’s a pricey and pretty difficult upgrade. Someone on this sub does it, upgrades it to 32gigs

It ranges from 40-50fps. Can lock it to 40 no problem

Yeah its fantastic. I play docked most the time, but was playing in bed last night for the first time since adjusting the vibrancy, I was amazed.

You can play story mode offline. Just have to disable “allow red dead online invites in story mode” in the settings.

You’d be surprised. There was literally zero lag. This probably has to do with the fact I was in a solo lobby, however you still need internet to get- and stay in it.

Yup! It does. I was in a solo lobby actually. Partially why it probably never disconnected, however I have used my hotspot in a normal lobby as well, and you still need internet to get into the lobby obviously.

Definitely depends what game, but you’d be surprised how little it uses.

This used only 100-200mb an hour. I have 60gb on my hotspot a month, so thats plenty for me.

When I first moved into my apartment, I wasn’t able to get wifi for a good month or 2. I used my phone as a hotspot and played Xbox pretty much non stop. I never ran out of data. It was great to have.

Wonder how many of these posts we can tally up before release day

Thats kind of what im thinking actually. I saw how good MW3 was running on Deck and I think I might grab.

Wait what do you mean? I just have an extra 256gb laying around after installing my 1TB SSD, so I wanted to be able to use the old one docked.

RDR2 by far

I’m not sure how anyone says this can’t be used optimally for school. Get a cheap external monitor, keyboard and mouse, and it’s essentially a great desktop computer.

It works amazingly well for anything school related. I’ve literally installed windows and designed on it with adobe illustrator and photoshop. No it’s not top of the line but it’s plenty for basic school stuff and is honestly pretty damn fast.

I have a laptop that costed me almost double what the Deck costs, and it runs like absolute garbage in comparison.
