I love my steam deck so much. When a second green comes out, I’ll probably pick it up on day 1.
I know don’t get things on day 1, but I live in a third world country and we get everything delayed, so it’s not really day one.
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.
Same here, I was in on the preorder, and I've been burned too many times to want to do that normally
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.
That's fair
bought my gen 1 a bit after they came out.
ordered my gen 2 OLED day they announced.
This generation is a great product. They might fall down in the future but for now, the team deck is an amazing product
Isn’t the OLED more of a gen1.5? It’s mostly a screen upgrade
I'd say more like a 1.7. Virtually everything was improved.
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.
