I bought the steamdeck a year ago and then sold it because I didn’t like the screen and the sleep function was really buggy.

Can I get an honest opinion as to how well sleep works now (the fanboy opinion a year ago was not honest…they said it worked great, when it really didn’t). A year ago when coming out of sleep on elden ring, or the star wars jedi game the audio would glitch, or the game just wouldn’t work properly.

I want the sleep function to work as well as the nintendo switch - games resume instantly and without any buggy behavior.

Is the steam deck at this state yet? Do games which necessitate an online connection (elden ring) still bug out when coming out of sleep?

Asking, as I am thinking of getting the new oled since they fixed the screen.

    Honest opinion: works well in handheld mode. Still buggy when docked to my tv. About 1 out of 5 times it’ll wake up but show a black screen. I have to disconnect it from the dock and reconnect.

    I don’t think that’s a sleep issue though. More like a docked TV issue.
