I was convinced for me it would be the 90hz refresh rate, or the improved touchscreen/haptics - but the moment I picked up the new OLED I knew my answer straight away:
The 30g they removed from the weight.
I’m sure that sounded minimal and inconsequential for a lot of us when we heard about it, but when you pick it up, you feel it immediately.
The original steam deck was always a bit too heavy for me to hold comfortably. Especially as I struggle with a disability which makes me pretty weak in general.
Now the device is so much more comfortable to hold. I can actually pick it up and hold it with one hand now, whereas before it would always overbalance and I could never keep it straight.
What’s the best upgrade from your experience so far, if any of you are lucky enough to have an OLED now?
Save your money and just get some good wifi 6 AP’s. The difference between 6 and 6e is negligible in a residential environment
Maybe I’ll wait for wifi 7 to be ratified then. There’s minimal difference between wifi 5 and 6 as far as I can tell.
For wifi 7, you’ll also need a switch that supports PoE++ if you want to power them without an ac outlet
I see that now. Unfortunately all I have is a switch equipped with 2.5gbe poe+ ports.
Those 6E APs seem like a good fit for what I already own.
