  • I doubt the battery live as its on windows and has more beefed up specs to supporg windows. Ok i had one in my hands i guess ergonomics are completly different when it felt heavier.

    350 bucks i get a steamdeck too i guess if it eats my sd cards its an ok price to pay




  • So its just a steam link app? You are fully mobile instead to carry 1 tablet 1 controller 1 phone with you.

    Same with steamdeck you can literally remotedesktop or just use steamlink to access your pc.

    People dont like to carry a laptop around and the same argument i said why not just get a steamdeck as it just literally combines your laptop, tablet and controller + can be used as literall laptop ( even better with docking station ) because your argument is that bingjng 3 items is easier to carry 1 (with carry case) to play mobile.

    Your argument that you dont want to carry the entire setup is understandable ( i dont have problems gaming on it for hours without interruptions and i am not the strongest ).

    The steamdeck is a game changer in the terms of linux gaming and portability of consoles ( i would say your setup isnt portable as 3 items to bring 24/7 is like why not take your xbox ) and the controllers are just best and inovative + repairability, its for a long time a repairable console from a big company.

    Windows on handheld is battery drain and UI/UX is the worst on there, worse design(i just say “destroying Microsd” and then not even repair that flaw and scam their customers from their repairs ), clump of plastic with no ergonomic, propiatary connector for external gpu ( steamdeck doesnt need that as its good enough for 99% ) cheaper? ??? Desktop solution and their “ROG Ally software” is crappy 10$ development. Linux > Windows on handheld for battery and performance. You only get windows for xbox game pass. ( There are alternatives on linux too i think ).

    The prices are almost equal, steamdeck you can easier upgrade and have better support and community ( see you ), the oled on steamdeck is peak and controlls are the best there.

    Steamdeck is a bit more portable as it isnt as THICK as the ROG Ally. + Valve doesnt iterate every year over their handheld but updates their os.

    But still this scraps on that topic is a bulky ps4/5/xbox PORTABLE for you? Steamddck can stream onto bigger displays too or evem remote play things that are to high gpu intensive onto your main pc.

    A tablet cant play games ( except mobile games ) on its own.

    It has a nice case for transport and the controlls are the best on the market ( even upgradable / easy to repair ) i would love a “just the controller” part of the steamdeck.

    And if you need a tablet + controller + the console itself. THIS is NOT portable in any way or form as you just need a literal backpack full of periphials including power cord to power it 24/7.

    It is more portable than a ps4/5 as some people will say that.

    But steamdeck is right now the most “portable” modern device with the best price / performance value. it cant be carried like a ds in your pocket thats for sure but with a nice package it is pretty good to handle.
