I got the no -oled like a month before th announced it. But I I’ll wait for a bigger upgrade before buying a new one.
Yeah I had a freind borrowing my non-oled one and I felt like he would enjoy keeping it, so I just kicked it down and splurged on the OLED.
Its a pretty big improvement. The screen is kinda wow, the audio is great, the power is solid. 3x battery life? Its a real improvement on something that was already great.
one thing I will say about the cable on both, is that it should be an angled connector like it is on the dock. it stands proud and is annoying if you playing laying down like I do before bed
I ordered mine like 2 days after they announced it, and I haven't regretted it at all. I almost never preorder things, but the Steam Deck just scratched every itch I had (handheld PC gaming, reasonable price, Linux, repairability).
I'll probably pick up the SD 2 pretty early as well. It's such a great experience and they've earned my trust with both launch quality and follow up improvements.
I was only okay with it because it wasn't really a preorder. A refundable deposit to get in line didn't feel the same, since I ended up with a good chunk of time to check reviews before deciding to commit my money, and I got the device a few days after paying.
