    You bring up valid points but the steam deck definitely fills a niche that a laptop couldn't, I can't walk around town holding a laptop and a controller lol, so yeah it's really just on the person what's best for them, if you need the productive aspects, use a laptop, but if you want a dedicated gaming device, get the deck

    I solved most of the issues you were having by making my steam deck dual boot to have windows os fill in the gaps for the things steam os couldn't do. Might be worth looking into. Nice vid btw :)

      You can fix even more of the problems with a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard and some more if you get a portable monitor and dock.

      Def going to look into it. Last I looked the experience was a bit lackluster, but filling in the gaps could be worth a few headaches.

      @@CFU I recommend it as I was able to easily use a micro SD card for Windows 10, a portable monitor as a bigger screen (you need a dock oc) and the Bluetooth mouse and keyboard as my peripherals to work. People tell me to use a laptop at that point but my counter has always been that it's the difference between always carrying a few pounds versus generally carrying the weight of a Steam Deck and sometimes carrying a few pounds. Sure the extra items can be annoying, but eh, I don't see that as a problem personally.

      @@CFU Windows 11 with deck tools and making sure to install all the dependencies. I'm using FL Studio 21 and Vegas 18 Pro and a bunch of other things on my deck alot. Pretty much just a tiny computer at this point.

      I DO NOT suggest doing SD Card installs of Windows. It's breaks the experience and wears out the SD card very very fast in a bad way. Just install windows and steam os on the internal as a dual boot.

      Steam Deck for music storage is novel but would certainly work :D

    Thanks for the great video. I am also going to fly to Japan with my Steam Deck. Did you find it heavy to carry it around? My concern is that carrying it together with my other electronic stuff like headphones, iPad, various chargers etc. will make my luggages so heavy to carry around everywhere.

    • @CFU
      @CFU  Год назад +2

      I found it a bit cumbersome mostly because I took it out for B roll and A roll (which included a tripod and stuff). If I wasn't making a video for it the issue would be negligible. I will say it takes a lot of volume in terms of carry on/luggage - much larger than a Switch. If you go to the about section of the channel feel free to email me if you want a list of some of the places I checked out/liked!

    I also play around with the HD IR-Camera and jam the Wi-Fi in our house by downloading games from Steam or updating my OS! :-)

    Don't forget the official dock comes with a power brick so you can have one dedicated to it. Kind of makes up for the price when you consider how expensive chargers are these days.

    Buying a steam deck and taking back to Australia will be ok? The steam deck hasn’t been purposefully modified to be charged at 100v ? In Aus our outlets run at 240v.
    I’m planning to go to Japan soon so any feed back would be much appreciated.

    I just put windows on my steam deck ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
    I just treat it like any other pc I’ve used in the last 10 years and it’s the same thing .
    I just figured out steam button chord configurations so I’ll probably have steam open more often now too

    All gaming laptop I have have atrocious battery life when gaming. It’s almost as if battery usage for gaming is an afterthought. Yes, even lighter indie games.
    Then again, Steam deck has much fine tuning tools for power available and also much smaller screen that help with the battery life.

    I've filled in the unwieldy parts of productivity by having a bluetooth foldable keyboard (these things are sick, seriously) and a bluetooth mouse. Ofc, on travel, you'll still have to deal with tiny screens, but another solution is to have a tablet-sized external monitor that works with USB C. On paper I thought it would take up a lot of space and be impractical, but in practice it ended up being a good substitute for a productivity tablet.
    Then I remembered that actual tablets with the foldable keyboard are better for real productivity and ditched that prospect alltogether my next trip.

    so the main issue is just compatibility? why not just dual boot to windows?

      I wanted the video to be representative of what most users would be willing/capable of. Last time I investigated Windows on Deck it seems the drivers are not quite mature and the overall experience is lacking. Hoping it improves over time.

    I bought it purely for the ergonomics. I already have a decent laptop but it requires a bit of setup to use it properly. Where if I'm just sitting in my car or waiting for something at work. I can just pick it up and game for 15 minutes and put it down. Also, 720p even on a 14 inch laptop screen is awful. Anywhere I would use my switch I can basically replace with my steam deck. There's some 3rd party games that are just too awful on switch to even consider.

      Ergonomics really can't be overstated on these handhelds. You won't find people gaming on their laptop in bed :D

    I have never had issues with offline mode. Also why is it when it comes to Nintendo we don’t mention the fact that digit purchases games can’t be played unless you have a Wi-Fi connection. Are we really going to ignore this.

      bs...i have both the deck and the switch...u dont need an internet connection to play your digital downloaded games on a switch...if its a secondary console then yes
