1 full week now into having my OLED LD. Previously sold my LCD.
Assuming one buys a Steam Deck because of daily responsibilities and life alone. Then consider the total time you would spend on the deck. After a long day of work. The few hours left after kids asleep. The few hours after partners content.
You deserve the superior OLED screen considering this is likely a full time substitute of a PS5/PC
Gaming experience and speed is far superior and noticeable than LCD
Heat and fan noise is reduced compared to LCD
Battery is superior and so important considering we primarily bought this for the purpose of mobility.
We’re all going to die one day.
You deserve the OLED! Don’t buy LCD as first timer. LCD remnants, seriously consider it!
My LCD has that vented JSAUX backplate installed.
I don’t know if that’s compatible with OLED or not, but it significantly reduces fan noise on my LCD Deck, I’m quite ok.
Even at the highest load, the fans only spin up to about 4200 RPM, which is plenty quiet. When using the traditional backplate, it ramps up to 6000 rpm!
