We’ve all given the device so much unanimous praise, but I’m curious if there’s anyone out there who regrets diving in and getting the OLED model?
I’m especially curious to hear from Double Deckers, who already had a Steam Deck but gave into temptation and upgraded to the OLED (like me, I’ll hold my hand up)
Initially I was very hesitant, and only gave into temptation after hearing so many testimonials. I’m a power user of the Steam Deck as I’m disabled and mostly bedbound, so the device is a godsend.
I do somewhat feel irresponsible for getting the OLED, but using it 4-6 hours every day at least means I’m getting my money’s worth. I’m hoping to give my original Deck to a friend or family member as a Christmas present to balance out the selfishness I feel.
How do you other Deckheads feel about your OLED purchase?
Don’t worry, it’s not a placebo. I’m not great with technical stuff, but some testing was done to show that the 90hz rate makes games feel more responsive. In a lot of cases there’s 0.2-0.3ms faster inputs with games. Here’s a video explaining it better!
I’m with you on the screen! It’s interesting that the most advertised feature was the most disappointing part of it. Not that it’s bad, just I’m actually happier about all the other improvements. Especially the weight. I can hold it one hand now without difficult balancing it. I’m curious how the LE feels.
Glad you’re having a good experience with it so far, hopefully you get more time to use it soon!
