    I upgraded and it was soooooo worth it. The screen is so much better, the battery is amazing and the fan/heat is greatly improved. Easily worth it for me

      @Cactuspractice12 5 месяцев назад

      I agree. Dumb advice from this guy whoever he is (stumbled on this channel). The advice not to get one in addition to the LED one? I mean who will keep the old one and not sell it to put the money towards the superior Oled version?

      @Cactuspractice12 5 месяцев назад +1

      @@Mark-qj5kp yeah sell the LED and get the OLED, thats what I did. Totally worth it if you want the SteamOS console type ecosystem/fucntionality - miles better experience than legion go/ally windows mess. Ignore this tech jock, he hasnt thought his advice through at all.

    I have always have been interested owning a Steam Deck when it was first released. When they announced the OLED SD, I know i have to buy the OLED instead of the OG LCD ones. I was surprised how intuitive the desktop environment. I pretty much expect what would the performance of the device but it exceeded my expectation. I did bring my SD to my workplace and the battery life is better that I thought.
    Overall, it's worth the price. It's going to be my go to portable computer from now on.

    The only question I have is can you play it without Wi-Fi after you download a game? Do you have to have Wi-Fi to me that’s a dealbreaker can’t get Wi-Fi everywhere so it’s not really a portable game system unless you can download the games and go anywhere.

    If you got the Limited Edition, be sure to check for dead pixels. All LE models have a BOE panel if you check with a command, and there are multiple reports of dead/stuck pixels (i'm one of them) and it kinda sucks. Valve/Steam Support has already advised folks to keep the Steam Deck OLED for 30 additional days before submitting an RMA request. I love everything else about it tho.
