jesus christ people acting like them releasing this oled deck bricked all others.
I already listed my steam deck onto the marketplace to sell the min I saw this was announced, I’ve had my deck for literally 1 year and 4 months lol I’ve been dying for this to happen. I almost was gonna order the DeckHD this week. Now I’m tryna get the limited edition that’s for $679.99, I loved the steam deck to death ever since I got it and did so many mods to my original since then. I put the hall effect joysticks and upgraded the internal to 1TB plus the dbrand case. It may seem like a dumb move to sell mine since it’s only a screen upgrade and a few other updates but this is worth the money the OLED
I got my 64 GB a month and a half a half ago and honestly would still choose the same. I got on sale for $450 CAD however at a price increase of $690 CAD it is a lot more. Granted it’s got a better screen and battery life and storage. However once you factor in tax which for me is 15 percent it becomes nearly 70 percent more. Honestly at the end of the day paying the games is the big thing and this does it well and if I was in the market for a steam deck I’d consider the base 64gb which is selling for $430 CAD now.
I’d love to upgrade but, 512gb steam deck with purple back shell, unless i could sell my deck for close to the new ones price i’d have to pass.
If valve does a trade-in or if they sell the OLED screen separately then I’m down, otherwise it’s not worth it because of everything I’ve done to the one I have now.
On the one hand, I’m fine with my upgraded 1TB Deck until the Deck 2 happens. On the other hand, waking the OLED Deck with a Bluetooth controller. Hmm…
I would love to but I am poor, but FUCK I CAN NOT BELIEVE IT IS ALMOST THE SAME PRICE AS THE ORIGINAL.
Everyone running to list it on ebay before the used market tanks.
It is amazing that Valve released such a worthwhile mid gen update, but it is also a little shitty they are able to sell such a major update at the same price a year later. They should be offering a trade in credit.
I was just considering getting one, and now they release twice the storage, better specs, and an oled screen for the same price? Definitely getting one.
Fine with my 64 gb with 1 tb sd card for a couple of years
