I won’t upgrade the Steam Deck because I love my current one, and don’t see much reasons to upgrade as the only thing that I truly regret not having is not in this revision.

I was extremely disappointed when I looked at the improvements and not seeing this. For a low-spec machine VRR would improve so much the experience and make lots of modern games more playable. Which is what makes me think that unless Valve release faster the fully new Steam Deck 2 with stronger performance, we will see a new revision with VRR for keeping up with the new demanding games.

I’ll wait for the next one personally (or the fully new one it they release it faster). And in the meantime enjoy what has been the best portable console I owned (that has not magically became a piece of junk because a very moderate upgrade appeared).

    If it had VRR I might have actually considered upgrading. Ever since I got a VRR monitor I’ve been in love with it, and it just makes even more sense in a handheld… Even saves a little power by not redrawing duplicate frames.
