Still waiting for a good deal on the OLED model to convince myself to upgrade from the LCD. I’m hoping the holiday sale this year might bring some deals.
I upgraded to the OLED model when it came out. The screen looks much nicer, has a faster refresh and longer battery life. I definitely recommend it over the original, but it is a steep price when you already have one that works fine.
Last I heard was that the steam deck wasn’t getting a version 2 update until there was next gen hardware to match it. Gaben isn’t a big fan of regular sub five percent hardware refreshes that other companies are happy with.
Might be a name thing though. They did the OLED update, but it’s not called the steam deck 2.

You might be better off waiting for a steam deck 2, possibly out next year?

I can see a Steamdeck 2 happening, but definitely not a 3.
Steam Deck: Alyx
Imagine they pull a half-life on us and release a steam deck 2 decades later.
