I’m mostly playing BG3 those days and the battery lasts max 1,5-2 hours until I have to plug it again. So if I have a long playing session (like today, slow Sunday) I will have to charge it pretty frequently. Is it bad for the battery? I wish it lasted longer, but oh well (don’t see myself upgrading to oled at this time).

    A lot of devices like smartphones will run off the battery even when plugged in, degrading the lifespan and risking pillowing the battery, but as I understand it the Steam Deck is designed to run off the power supply once the battery is charged, so it’s not endlessly charging/depleting the battery like a smartphone does.
