Thank you so much for all the great comments and support and for making this milestone happen. Stay tuned for more Steam Deck related videos in the near future! ;)
u should’ve got yourself a 256GB that’s the one I got
I'm in love with my 64g deck! I've always been a console gamer and now this is my fave device! 😍 upgrading the SSD drive soon! I installed decky loader plug in and now I have the vibrant plug in and it looks as bright and colorful as the switch screen. Dunno why valve didn't make this a custom feature but at least it's a great workaround that you can customize to each game
Just got it Yesterday and love it!!! Luckily my partner is able to open and put in bigger storage. I just stand there handing him tools
He is a keeper ;)
Thank you
The fact that Valve make it very easy to maintain and repair is a huge bonus

Owner of 256gb model here. Was incredibly excited to receive it (after waiting a year), and it has exceeded my expectations for the past 6 months. It's a PC, so a little tinkering may be required here and there, but what an incredible value this thing is.
I got mine around 6 months ago, back in August. 256GB version as well. So far I have not been forced to tinker at all, though of course I have tinkered around a bit on my own. Note: I don't consider basic graphic options to be "tinkering", to me tinkering is editing an ini file or something like that. Though to people who have only ever used consoles, I can understand why they might call something like changing screen resolutions to be "tinkering". Different perspectives and all that.
I have been pleasantly surprised at just how capable it is. I really love this machine. I have been gaming since before the NES came out. Including early portables like Microvision. As such even after switching from consoles to PCs, I have always had a portable of some kind, but have always been annoyed at the fact that I either had to use them stock or do really annoying stuff in order to install custom software on them. The deck offers a perfect solution to that kind of BS.
I went full send and ordered the 512GB version about 2 days ago. So pumped!!
I have the base model and also bought a 512 micro sd card. I love this thing so much couldn’t recommend it any higher. So many games I love playing on this thing even more than my other consoles and pc.
I bought the 64GB and have been very happy. Paid 40bucks for a 512 SD and 27 for a 256 SSD, which is amazing value in my opinion
Is that better than buying the 256 gb??
@@bimg1915 Well, I paid less than the 256 version and have the same internal storage as well as an SD card. If you are willing to do a little bit of work, you can save quite a bit of money. However, I got lucky because I got SSDs from someone who upgrades new laptops and sold me their 256 Kioxia BG4 for only 27Euros, when they go for much more new.
Still, the difference in price between the 64 and 256 are 130Euros and a 256 SSD costs under 60Euros.
I have always hated that companies charge way too much for larger storage and unfortunately valve I guilty of the same thing, BUT they even give us the instructions to upgrade ourselves, so...we cool, we cool.
@@mattg8888 alright tysm for the info
I ordered the 64gb version, then ordered a $50 512gb SSD + $30 512 SD card, so will eventually pay $480 for a 1TB storage Steam Deck. That's less than the 256gb model.
@@cassysamel3914 that's awesome. It really depends on the deals you can get, but it is generally worth it to take care of the storage yourself.
Just got this few days ago, also bought an M.2 NVMe 2230 512gb SSD for $60 and I’ll be upgrading it myself. 😊
I'm super happy with my 64 GB Deck. For a non-gamer like me (or novice gamer at this point, I guess) it's hands down the best device on the market. Like the Nintendo Switch it's an independent, compact device - I don't have to pay and make space for a monitor, TV, keyboard and mouse, controllers etc. But compared Nintendo, the games themselves for the Deck are *significantly* more affordable. Especially when they go on sale, which they frequently do. I can try so many more types of games without fearing that I've shelled out €45 on something I'll not like.
And when I want to try controllers or whatever, I can borrow some from my brothers.
Now, I haven't played anything actually demanding on the Deck yet, my "heaviest" game is Witcher 3, but so far the tinkering I've had to has been minimal. I installed ProtonDB for Witcher 1, and I've played around with all the settings without truly noticing much of a difference in most cases. It's been a mostly "pick up and play" experience for me since I got my Deck back in July.
As for it being a "Switch killer"... Nah. It's nowhere near mainstream enough, and I don't think that's likely to change anytime soon. Nintendo exclusive games are insanely popular, too, and there's no denying the Switches are significantly more compact devices. My Switch lite is hilariously tiny next to my Deck, even in a case. The Deck is wonderful, it's amazing value, but it's not particularly portable...
Thank you for the comment. You mentioned a good point that I failed to bring up - Steam games are really cheap indeed and will safe you money in the long run.
"shelled"
Bro i was gonna buy the switch but now i changed my mind im gonna buy steam deck
I would say it’s more a matter of brand recognition than of exclusives.
I travel with mine everywhere
Bought the 64gb variant and purchased a 256gb ssd and hardware kit to be able to remove the parts correctly and safely. Don't need much space since my series x Is what I play most of my stuff on. Ordered it before I left for a cruise and it was out for delivery within thr week I returned! Excited 🎉🎉🎉
I received my 64GB Deck in August and I am thrilled with it. There's a ton of stuff that I still have yet to do with it like emulation, but I use it to edit photos and video, I'll use it like a tablet sometimes, and of course I play my PC games at times and in places that I never would have thought. For those above the pedestrian level to the advanced, the Deck is a gem.
What program do you use for editing?
@@reviewrattlesnake I use Kdenlive
Have had any problems whit the memory??
@@koladearasanmi2005 No, I swapped the SSD for a 1tb drive, and I have a dock with a 2tb drive in it. That plus SD cards, I have no issues.
Bro is underated af!! You need more subs by the professionalism you are doing.Just subbed for this
Aww, thank you so much!
Excellent review. Thank you so much. Looking forward to the video where you talk about the Steam Deck as a replacement to a laptop.
wow tq for the video. looking forward to the PC setup video!
Thank you!
I got the 64gb deck. It meant I could have it now instead of later (cheaper) but also I could *easily* upgrade the SSD for cheaper than buying a better model. It was a no-brainer for me, Love this thing!
Informative, thanks my guy
At 5:16 you say that games are locked to 800p but you can individually set some game's resolutions manually in the game properties in steam. A lot of games you might not want to run full resolution of your monitor but it brings a lot of advantages such as being able to set your scaling filter to something better like FSR 1.0 which makes lower resolution content for exemple 720p a lot more tolerable. And finally you don't have to use a keyboard and mouse if you use your dock in the living room since you can keep using gaming mode and even run some old games at 4K
I got mine (though the 512GB) in June last year, and I'm still thrilled. It's best buy I have ever done.. I havent used Xbox, Playstation nor the Switch since then.. It's just the perfekt console for me, even for mouse controlled games, no other handheld offers this. 1280x800 ist really enough for this size of screen, and docked FSR makes quite a good job an my 60" inch OLED, im about 10feet away.
I picked one up at the beginning of January, received it a week later. I'm still learning more about what all it's able to do, today I added old gaming console start up on random to my deck's start up. Little upset that the master Chief collection currently isn't supported (locked up and crashed on me) but getting emulation station running has just put my deck to the top of my gaming list. Make ROMs of Robotech arcade game, freaking awesome. Still working towards PS2, PS3 and maybe the switch on the deck for emulation but overall I have been very impressed with the gaming. The free games in the store aren't bad either.
Master Chief Collection works great on The Deck just look up videos on youtube on how to get it working it's not to hard just requires a bit of tinkering.
Good Review and very informative. Thanks for the info
Thank you very much!
Can't wait to get mine. Thank you for this video. looking forward to playing oblivion and all the GTA titles.
Well done nice review. Your script and narrative is great.
I'm a dad who mainly stop gaming 10 years ago.
I've bought a 64g steam deck in October last year, and I love it!
I play a few hours every days, games are really beautiful on the "tiny" screen.
I've recovered the old stuff I never manage to finish (or play enough) on my steam account.
Really this 419€ steam deck is a bargain... I even use it with my dell Usb3 dock with a big screen keyboard an mouse to play some games.
I'm exactly like you i will be able to play some games, I like the fact you can just sleep mode while games are on screen. This is a big plus.
@@sherrjo Just be wary about what games you are playing when using the sleep function. Skyrim bugged out on me and Mass Effect Legendary Edition would log out of Origin and my saves got screwed over. Sleep functions have always been hit or miss though, so this is expected behavior.
The steam deck had to be one the best 400 bucks that I have every spent in my life. It can play Atari to PS3 which is gives it a huge library besides your steam library. Also the steam deck provides tons of freedom of use
I keep being told you can do this through emulators, but I still don’t understand the process.
@@MrDaltonBousum emudeck is pretty easy to follow
Which PS3 games have you guy running? Because it’s more miss than hit for me
@@Splackavellie85 Odin sphere, KH.1.5 Blazeblue, guilty gear XRD,persona 4 arena, tales of graces f,
@@extremeloco23 took me about 5 hours of a day. But I got it all figured out!
Really can’t wait to get my hands on Steam Deck!
Also, waiting for your video about using Steam Deck as a work station.
Thank you very much, it will be released sometime next month.
Nice. I'm expecting mine to arrive tomorrow.
I've just ordered my 64GB today, whilst Valve are offering 10% off. I'd been considering it since Christmas and finally bit the bullet, and I'm so happy to hear the great reviews and read the comments from satisfied users. I look forward to getting mine.
I bet you will have an amazing time. ;) Feel free to share you experience once it arrives
I did the same thing bro! I saw that 10% off and swooped up that 64GB so fast! I also just got a ps5 so my GF is gonna be even more salty haha cuz with the new Star Wars game coming out she bout to never have my attention 😂😂
Awesome video, thanks
As long as you get a micro SD card it's fine. It's not my main for of gaming. I play a lot of single player games on my steam deck at work.
I happened to get my steam deck delivered (back in august) as I was leaving to go to a friends house. So I decided to open it up over there. My first response was thinking that it felt bigger than I expected (in a good way). My friends first response was on how light it was. Granted he also commented on how it was nice to have a screen larger than that of a Switch... which made me laugh. (He doesn't actually own a Switch, so he was just working on memory there, therefore I cut him some slack and he was talking about the physical dimensions, not screen resolution)
For the deck itself, I love it. Things like battery life are not an issue for me, though I do understand why others would have a different opinion. (for example, I don't need a charging bank or whatnot for my use, as I have a jump pack for my pickup that is my portable battery as well as a rather powerful inverter if I need it.) 6 months in and I really do not have any major complaints about it. There are little things, such as using the linux desktop without an actual mouse and keyboard is, well, annoying, but that is to be expected, so I don't hold it against the deck (and why I bought a miniature wireless keyboard). The ONE thing is that I wish there was a kickstand built into the deck. I have found that using a kickstand to keep the desk upright, just sitting on top of the case, which is on my lap, makes truly extended sessions (over a day) no big deal. Using it like shown in this video is fine, but having a kickstand is just so nice.
I don't understand why people dislike bezels unless they actually interfere with things, such as in a multimonitor desktop setup. Personally I like having a little area around the screen that I can use to grab something as I abhor even the slightest smudge on the edge of a screen. For the deck itself, I have found that the healthy border along the edge of the screen to be a boon in scrolling around, since I do not have to touch an area closer to the center in order to scroll around, I can just slide my finger across the one of the sides. Eliminating nasty smudges in the center and accidental clicks in that area as well. Granted I try to avoid using touchscreens whenever possible as I truly do not like the idea of display and input devices being one in the same. I never have. They can be handy at times, but as a primary means of input, I utterly despise them.
I wish they had done a better job with the case though. At a minimum it should have had the internal space for the charger and ideally, the dock as well. That said, the fact that a decently tough semi-hard (not hard, hard would be a metal or plastic or even wood exterior, not this hardened fabric) case is standard for all versions, is a great thing. Semi-hard cases are still better than simple padded cases as many a guitarist will tell you, but they are a far cry from true hard shells. This is the first portable I have owned in 40 years that comes with a case as a standard feature for every model. (Look up Microvision if you think I am lying about the 40 year part)
caveat: I got the 256GB version and added a 512GB card to it. Have the official Valve dock. Got a third party case that has room for more than just the deck itself. I use the Valve case when at home, the third party case for when I am on the go. Got a case protector, purely for the fact that it has a kickstand. Also grabbed a miniature keyboard/trackpad, the onscreen keyboard works well enough combined with the trackpads (granted I am one of those people who loves the steam controller, so I already had a lot of practice using that particular way of using an onscreen keyboard), but there are no options atm for moving it while inside a game. As such if you are doing something like entering a console command in Skyrim, you cannot see the console. Also, physical keyboards ftw.
I just bought one two days ago, hopefully it comes next week! I’ve always wanted to play pc games. I’ve seen people playing certain games and I’d be like I want to play that! Nope only for pc :( now I can play most if not all the pc games I’ve wanted to! Been thinking of buying a pc for a few months now, now I can have a handheld one for wayyy cheaper. I saw a comment about someone saying they have a steam deck and they play their games with it. I wasn’t even going to Google it, because I figured it was just another pc thing I couldn’t use or own. I’m soooo thankful I let my curiosity get the best of me. Bought it same day I heard about it.
I literally got my 64 for one game lmaooo and love it occasionally I'll download some side game to play but it's perfect if ur using it for certain games
If you're playing steam games you need a larger SSD for all of the shaders cache updates. Gog games don't seem to save anything outside of the installation location.
I got the latest call of duty on steam deck running flawlessly using windows which let you play damn near every game in the steam store. Emulation is as follow atari, nes,snes,n64,gamecube,wii,switch, psp,ps1,,ps2, ps3,Xbox, xb360 all Xbox exclusives all almost all of ps4 and Xbox catalog of games, arcade, sega master system, sega geniuses,dreamcast,3do lmao it's worth it in so many ways. Anybody that got a sit down security job this is a must have, I absolutely love going to doctor appointments with my wife now 😆 take your time honey
How do GameCube, Wii, and Switch games play? I'm thinking of buying one😀
at this point gamecube, wii, and wii u games are smooth as heck too with the right plugins. this thing is KING at being easily the most accessible/ affordable/ all round handheld. Not the best in any one category imo, but bc it hits so many categories at the same time, it is by far one of the best options out there.
This video sold me on the deck. Instead of carrying my laptop around, I will carry this.
I ordered mine today and I can't wait lmao
Just got my 64gb I'm super happy with it.
Just ordered my 64gb model yesterday. Also copped a 1tb SanDisk micro ssd. I'm hoping this is life changing
How is it bro?
Hell YES! Totally!!!!!!! I have the 64Gb with a ssd sandisk ULTTA 1TB, I have assassins creed Valhalla, Mafia, Star Wars jedi, call of duty black ops, cyberpunk 2077, resident evil 3 and more… and It’s fucking AMAZING!, the best fucking purchase ever in my life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fuck YEAHHHHHH !!!!!! I want the deck 2 !!!!!!!!!
The reason ppl call it a switch killer i believe is because you can emulate a lot of switch games on the steam deck without being bound to the switch and ONLY the switch. You still have the freedom of a pc in a handheld, unlike a switch. Same could ofc apply to ps and xbox since u can emulate them also, but they arent in the same category as handhelds.
Emulating Switch Games pretty much requires you to have a Switch too for the hardware keys and ROMs…otherwise only illegal sources would be an option which I would avoid. Nintendo us very harsh against piracy
@@marios.2975 ok mario
@@marios.2975 doesn't matter when you have a friend who already has all the files :3
@@nope7716 🤣
You've obviously never seen the state of switch emulation currently.. It's not good. Only still early development wise but in its current state, not what I'd call playable
Got mine last night. Been playing left 4 dead 1&2 that I forgot I had bought.
Apex runs insanely well at 60fps. WAY BETTER than my switch oled. I’m going to buy ready or not today.
I’m still torn between buying another sd card to specifically run windows, so I can play r6siege, warzone, and others.
I play ALOT of mobile games, because I hate aiming with a joystick. So the trackpad was the biggest selling point for me. And it’s been awesome.
I bought a 128gb internal 2230 SSD for my 64gb model for 11$ on amazon and a 36$ 500gb micro SD card and I fully wiped my steam deck and put windows 10 and I use as a PC and then when I swap to on the go, I simply go into big picture and it works JUST like the steam deck out of the box! It's an amazing device, i love it!
Your running apex through steam or ea ? That’s my main game I’d buy for
You said it connects to usb audio interfaces easily? I would love to see that reviewed on your steam deck as a computer review. I’m trying to determine if I could do music production with a dac and midi controller
Alright, i will make sure to feature it.
great vid!
Got mines yesterday first game I bought for it was the Witcher 3 it absolutely is perfect
Still loving it, but the more I use it, the more bugs I am encountering. The UI can be very buggy at times. Hope they bring in more updates to fix these issues.
👀👀I'm just looking at this because I just picked up in Like New condition at a Goodwill of all places for ONLY $50! although I was eyeing the OLED version , I really don't play games while I'm traveling or outside ... I'm very satisfied with my 64GB base model, and I already had a 1TB SD card so I should be good for a while. In my situation I feel like this is a gr8 supplement to my gaming PC
Very good and informative video
can't wait until an Oled model comes out!
I have 2 switches, 1 hacked and one vanilla so I can play my switch games on my Deck, it's the only reason I bought a second switch last year (just for my Deck, I even call my switch my Deck accessory). I transfer saves from the vanilla switch to the modded switch then to my Deck.
I don't get why people complain about battery life. just adapt game settings to fit 8-10W and you will att least get 2.5-3h. With the last 10-15W not improving your performance a whole lot (due to how the APU is configured. it's the most efficient at 5-10W). You can run Cyberpunk at 30fps with beautiful settings at 8W. offering a bit over 3hours of battery life. Keep in mind, the Switch runs at 5W or less in portable mode and 15W in docked mode. So running the deck at 15W is the same as running the Switch in docked mode on battery which isn't very smart if you want battery life... The difference with the deck is that YOU are in control of your own experience and it isn't curated by the developers.
I love my 64gig, with a high speed 512gb micro sd i snagged for 40 bucks it gives me a lot of flexibility, biggest problem is shadercache and compatdata on steam games kinda blowing up your internal memory, but as long as you dont fill up your 512 SD card you should be ok. Plus you can always move and link the shadercache / compatdata to your sd card
Moving it to SD card caused big performance issues unfortunately
@@erikpoephoofd how do you remedy that?
@@CandysChannel The SD card is not fast enough for the shader cache so that should be installed on the internal SSD. If your internal SSD is full, install a larger SSD.
@@erikpoephoofd No way in hell since I’m not a fix it lady, nor do I know anyone else who is. I will stick to my 512gb card.
@@erikpoephoofd I found out about cryo utilities so the shader problem is fixed
Good review all clear!
Thanks!
you my friend deserve many subs..
Thank you!
The 64gb model just makes sense. For the extra price that the 256gb model would get you, you can get 1-2tb of micro sd storage. Load times from micro sd aren’t bad.
What is the game at around 8:30? This looks awesome
Im getting the Steam Deck 64gb version. It will arrive tomorrow in the mail. I live in Homer Alaska so it will be here late in the day. I have a 256gb memory card that im gonna use on it.
Just got mine 4 hours ago as of this writing. 🥰
Congratulations! What do you think so far?
@@reviewrattlesnake its indeed a game changer for the handheld market. The capabilities of this thing for its asking price is hard to beat. Saw the new ones to come out but my choice never changed. 😁
Ok so people say it can do what a laptop does. My question is can you save your pictures on it and take music and turn them into mp3s and download to a mp3 player or phone?
I just bought a 64Gb Steam Deck two days ago, I haven't touched yet except to admire it, I'm waiting for the 512gb ssd i ordered online, also a 512gb micro sd, it'll be a couple of days of waiting, I am not versed in upgrading anything, but I already bought the toolkit, downloaded the OS and used rufus to install it on a usb drive, wish me luck
How did it go mate??
Yes it is, when you buy a game in steam it stays there in your collection, you can install and uninstall it anytime not unless you play 5 to 6 different games a day and it has the option to add storage via sd card
Planning to get it and was gonna go for 512 but seems like 64 plus sd card is just good enough.i though it would bigger difference but 2 sec loading times are not that bad
What’s your keyboard and monitor?
Steam Deck is a nice thought, but for some reason Aussie retailers are flogging this model for $849 AUD (incl GST). Really makes other handheld PCs look a lot more appealing...
I know it's pretty easy to swap out the storage, but it would be awesome if the next iteration of Steam Deck makes it even easier to do so, without having to take it apart.
You can already do that with the MicroSD
@@dreonnac3169 the hell would I wanna use MicroSD for? Nvme is dramatically faster lol
@@BryAlrighty easily changeable extra storage 🤯🤯🤯
@@Shadow_- I'm fine with utilizing microSD for some indie titles, but big open world titles with longer load times? I'd prefer to just crack open the steam deck and put an nvme. Valve knows this as well, since so many customers are opting to do it. So it might be worth while to offer an easier way of upgrading the nvme storage in the next iteration of the Deck, and just offering a single option instead of three. Then valve could save money since they're already taking a loss on the product, and people could just expand it with an nvme or microSD if they so choose, fairly easily.
They won't do that cuz they want you to buy the higher storage versions
I believe the 64gb is the best deal. the only reason to get the 512 ver is if you want the anti glare screen.
Don’t go for 64gb unless you plan on upgrading the Internal Storage yourself to save money
I am super tempted by this thing, but man, I have a PC and I use the steam link app to play anything in the livingroom, so I honestly do not know if it's worth it for me.
What’s the game @ 9:00 ? Looks fun 😬
I got the 256gb a few months ago and recently updated the internal drive to 1tb for 159usd. I should have gone for the 64gb version given the price difference between the models and what I paid for the 1tb nvme
Was it difficult to upgrade the storage? I’m scared to damage it if I get one.
@@jefferrrson1x find a good guide for it and follow it carefully. It's not hard, the biggest risk is over tightening the screws or not properly screwing them back in making them loose permanently. I can give you some tips here, but like I said find a good guide on CZcams or something that will tell you more
Take the SD card out before opening or you could snap it. Keep your screws organized. When prying the back of the steam deck off after unscrewing, don't use metal or you could scratch/damage your steam deck. Use something plastic, ideally a prying tool but a credit card could work too. When you finish and are putting the back cover screws in, turn the screw left until it clicks in and then gently screw it in, but don't over tighten them.
The first game I'm playing on this thing is Sonic Adventure 2. Next, modded Terraria. I'm SO EXCITED
Wow I have nerve damage in my arms and can’t play pc without my arm going temporarily paralyzed just found out I can play the switch lately thought I was cursed to Zelda forever this system is a miracle
SteamOS is based on Arch? That didn't sound right so I googled it. Apparently SteamOS 3 moved to Arch. SteamOS 2 was Debian based. I had no idea it changed. Interesting.
To Add to your Video The Price over time on the SD is cheap compared to other Handhelds no Online Subscribtion Servive or a 5 year old game for 60€ thats rly Important to mention
I average one PlayStation remote a year. When the directional buttons and joysticks break are they replaceable for the Steam Deck?
With a bit of skill, probably, I think Valve even made a video on how to do it.
@@reviewrattlesnake Thanks I will check that out
@KBT ken Ifixit has parts for it on their website
They are close. Give a couple cycles (~5 years) and it'll be competitive with the Switch. Or maybe Valve bungles the updates and some other competitor beats them to it, who knows
I got the 512 because of the improved screen, and frankly didn't see any of the screen issues I had, so I guess that's fixed by getting the upper level one.
What were the screen issues you had with the base model?
I bought a 64 GB one and ended up with 1TB SD car for steam games and a 512 for emulation lol and its been used almost daily since It one of my favorite devices ive ever owned
Did you have frame drop problem in fifa 23 or wwe?
If you want to play Halo, FIFA games, C & C, do you really need to install windows?...do you need more memory for that?...when you are using memory sticks, are not dropping the performance of the game?
what whould be better as tv console steam deck or switch?
I’ve had my steam deck awhile and have put a 1Tb ssd also a 1Tb micro sd card
What the difference between a SSD and a Sd care ? If I just get the 64 b one would I be good with just a Sd or do I have to open it up
I have to ask though seeing as most of these PC handhelds have battery life issues. What can they do to make the battery last on par with the Switch? Increase batter size? Better optimization?
I mean, even PC gaming laptops don't last that long when you play games. hmmmmmm
Exactly. Increase battery size and make the APU more efficient. The next generation APU will be more efficient, so we will see if improvements in battery life
Will any usb c charger work on the Steam Deck?
Im getting the 64gb steam deck for my birthday. It will arrive on June 15th. My birthday is on June 19th. I cant wait. Im getting it early. Yeah.

I have been doing some searching and it seems the 64gb model + 512gb ssd + gulikit joysticks is cheaper than the official 512gb ssd model.
I have my SteamDeck for 2weeks now and I can say that you have to know what you are doing in order to use the system at its full potential, there are more to this system than playing at steam alone. I think this is the reason why in my country, many people sold their unit in just a short time if having it.
What is your country?
I had xbox game pass and my steam library running off it within 2 hours of delivery, I've never used Linux as an operating system before, 4 weeks in and I've got it mastered, Googling is a skilll

@@mda7629 Unfortunately eBay seems to be the best option just make sure it's a 2230 with the nand chip on one side. The Western Digital 2TB PC SN740 was what I landed on.

Can we play rdr2 or other big games using pendrive?
i buy 64gb and instal a 2TB internal SSD , total spend $650usd having 40 AAA game now can play on the GO
what is the name of the game that looks like Wolfenstein 3D?
I bought the $650 dollar version because of the anti glare screen but now I hear it makes the games blurry. Still waiting for it to arrive so I’m hoping that’s not true.
yes it is, it's a big console and its heavy but you can't believe how many AAA games can even run on it with medium to low setting, this wouldn't be dreamt about even 5 years ago because people hyped up android gaming console back then
The 400 dollar model is the best deal. same internals, and you can add more storage with a card.
Wait for Revision 2 with OLED screen.
When it also improves the battery life, a Steam Deck revision will sell like hot cakes.
Also significantly more expensive for a new version with OLED.
How long did you have to wait until getting the device?
Less than two weeks
