  • My only tip would be to browse steam for a bunch of games you want and put them on your wishlist.

    Steam has deeper sales than any console. You should be notified when a game on your wishlist goes on sale. Otherwise, you can easily view your wishlist and filter to “discounted” games to view all games on sale in your wishlist.

    You need a minimum 45w charger, I believe. So if you buy a car charger or something, make sure it is at least 45w.

    Some games require a little mouse work. You can use the mouse by HOLDING the “steam” button (lower left face button; left thumb) and then gliding across the right track pad with your right thumb.

    If you need to enter text, press the “steam” button and the X button, the. Let go. Will bring up the keyboard.

    The power button, when pressed and released, will suspend your game. Need to stop playing but not at a save point? Tap the power button and the game will suspend. The screen will turn off. Tap it again to wake back to the game. Holding the power button will power it off completely, so do do that.

    Hope you enjoy it! I love it.


  • Please don’t interpret my tone as derisive, but as statement of fact. If you do even the slightest bit of sleuthing from tech reviews of the products, SD always prevails as the best value with the least complications. The prevailing factor seems to be the OS and track pads, as well as price. The power of the other devices is hampered by them running windows.

    If you are the kinda guy to put steam OS on the ROG, maybe there is then more value there, idk.

    But for the average person, steam deck seems to clearly be the winner (for now).
