Q2 gang here but I feel your disappointment, you would have better off waiting. But honestly, there is always a better version to wait. The Steam Deck 2, then Steam Deck 2 OLED, then SD3 etc. I mean, have a good time with your deck, it’s still a good console and wait and see.

That being said, it’s easy for me to say, the limited version is not available in my country. I don’t need it, but want it so bad lol

Cheers

    Bought mine like 2 months ago, maybe a bit less. The initial OLED hype is strong, but the OG deck is still perfectly viable for my use case.

    If it’ll seriously break anytime soon - I’ll consider OLED, but not before that.

    What annoys me the most is spending money on accessories for my 512 GB to mitigate issues that the OLED will fix/improve.

    Longer USB cable, thinner carrying case, was considering a power bank too but hey the OLED has better battery life.

    I’m happy that Valve is considering the user feedback. But still…ouch my wallet lol

    Got mine March 2022. Happily get a new one and give old one to the partner.

    Bought mine in early June, had 3 great months out of it but now it’s collecting dust :(

    For some reason I’m preferring the Switch OLED again. The form factor is so much lighter and easier to throw around the house.

    I also play my PS5 more, so maybe the Portal and Switch combo is for me. I know you can stream to Deck but I kinda like easy functionality, e.g Portal idea.

    Ireland here, looks like Decks won’t be for sale here for another while looking at the website so even though I’m missing out on the oled at least I have one

    Besides I can always just plug into my oled monitor if I want those lovely lovely colours
