I was on the edge buying the thing and told myself that if I use it 50 hours it’s a reasonable purchase. Now I’m sporting closer to 200h within one year I could not be happier.
Did you have any (self made) goals when buying Steam Deck? Did you achieve those? Or did you buy it and now it’s collecting dust? I’m curious
I was just excited for a portable, powerful Linux based machine and wanted to see it succeed so we could get more of them as time went on.
I use the thing daily docked and portable for gaming, 3D modeling, coding away from my main PC…it’s been great. If it broke today I’d buy another. Or even better, I’d just pick up the easily available replacement parts and fix it.
