Thanks for the info bro! I know you be liking these gaming handhelds. I only have a switch right now, and have been looking at getting a PC handheld. I think I have decided to wait a couple years in hopes for the tech to evolve a little further before throwing down on one of these. Love your content bro!

Dope video, hope you get a lot more subs cause your review answered just about every question I had. Keep it up!

I was an early adopter and I plan to buy the newer version for my wife. Since I got the deck, I've barely used my switch. It's worth more than content for views. If I had more free time, I'd put hours into games on it every day.

I bought the Oled version a month ago and just finished my first game on it (FF7 Remake). I love the Steamdeck! It feels magical. The cutscenes looked amazing. I will definitely buy the SD2!

I have an ally for when I'm at work or away from my desktop. I also have a steam deck lcd. Love them both. My ally is always plugged in but for my use case that's fine.

I have the LCD 512gb and it's great!

I just ordered the 1tb oled model This will be my first hand held pc experience cannot wait.

Good enough is honestly an understatement

Just subbed. I’m waiting for my steam deck to arrive I cannot wait I’m so excited 😆

I have the LCD 64gb which I got after they dropped the price when OLED came out for £300, I love it! It's more than enough to run games I want to play, I save latest AAA games for my PS5

I really want to have one This device is the best choice among all of the handheld consoles fast simple beautiful thanks for this video you explain everything very complete love your videos

Great video man, thank you!

I Was just saying that my boy didn’t drop a vid in a min. Great take on the steam deck and windows handhelds. I initially had the original model but had the chance to get legion Go and Rog ally, but decided to get the oled best decision I made bro. It’s so easy to pick up and play and also the oled screen makes it look way better as well. Better price and a overall better experience.

I don’t really know how other windows handhelds do but I often play games on my SD with Chrome opened and with Steam OS I can basically switch between two instantly and don’t need to change to gamepad controller or desktop controller, it’s a bless

Watching you vids and you reaaaallly like the mad max game, Hell yea!

love yall video！I wonder what is the camera you used for filming？

After 2 months of use - my charger of StDeck oled is dead... Now waiting for new one - few messages to support - warranty🎉

As someone who overpaid quite a bit on the base 64gb lcd steam deck since its quite expensive here in Australia, its really awesome. I did upgrade the size to a 1tb sabrent ssd and have no issues with it. I dont feel the need to upgrade right now as the oled version is even more expensive and I'd need to sell my og steam deck to recoup the money for an upgrade. Really cant be bothered with that as the one i have serves my needs.

I am thinking of getting a handheld pc and I was kinda stuck with the options that are available. Initially, I decided that I would save up for the RoG Ally, but decided for the Steam Deck due to Valve's support for the SteamOS. That and majority of the games I play are on steam.

U need to try FSR3 frame generation and cryoutilities u will be suprised how insane your performance will become

Hey broski I love your videos!!!

I have a top of the line computer and play on my steam deck for everything that i dont need a mouse and keyboard for. Some stuff where a mouse is handy i just use my pebble on bluetooth but i mean like competitive fps and LOL. on AAA games i have been using remote play and its flawless (although I wish they'd add hdr)

This brother should do fitness and workout vlogs too man.

Hey, really appreciate your set up. On your shargeek short, what L shape connecter do you use for the charging cable?

Great video bro 👍

I disagree that handhelds are only about being away from being plugged in. They are hella useful for those of us who travel a lot, and almost always have access to a charger. Battery life is largely a non issue, but having something that runs these games in this form factor is invaluable, so horsepower per watt doesn’t matter as much as raw horsepower. I am someone who lives out of my backpack for weeks at a time away from home for work, so these portable consoles are perfect for me, I wish more reviewers took that into account.

Great info on the SD. I don't have one but been on the fence about it. Besides the modern games that can be played on it from Steam, I have many legacy and classic games I want to play on it too via emulation. However upon a possible newer version of the SD maybe I should stay on the fence until the new version comes out. Major problem is usually once you get one then the new version suddenly comes out.

Most of the game is play get me about 7-8 hours of play if I wanted and at high graphics but the games are older titles pre 2010’s I also run cryoutilities and upped my vram from the stock 1gb to 4gb which is best if you plan to run cryoutilities

I realize how important battery life was when I got an Oled switch. I was playing forever and still had 70 percent left. On the other switch I be at 26 percent quick which ruined my experience. Once you get your battery down within 30 mins it changes your gaming experience I would get up and just dock it to charge instead of grabbing plugs to continue playing.

EA just dropped The Saboteur on Steam and I immediately downloaded it to my OG Steam Deck and fell in love all over again, lol

90hz screen is not that useful for emulation either since consoles usually run at tv compatible frame rates. 120hz is much more useful since it allows black frame insertion. Luckily some steam deck oled displays can be overclocked to 120hz

Does it link up to the cloud for gaming or directly.

i have the LCD 64gb original. and i LOVE IT. its amazing.

How's the Steam deck oleds screen compared to Nintendo's oled screen? Getting my oled Steam deck soon.

I had all 3 and now oled deck and I can say it’s the best even when it got worse performance than ally.3 hours and 50 min of playtime on battery in triple a games can’t beat that

Hey great channel! I’m having an issue with my oled, it crashes all the time plus it came with a white line on the bottom, reached costumer service but they want me to trouble shoot it (not computer nerd here) any easy ideas? Thanks

I had the LCD 512gb model and sold it for the ally and then gave my ally to my partner and I got the legion go and I’m contemplating going for the oled steamdeck aswell have the best of both worlds, I loved my deck I traded for the performance but that’s not the case this time I want a better use experience

The Steam Deck is cool and all, but how did you get those arms?

Love the lions mane on your screen? Where can I get one!

I love my steam deck, it has allowed me to play a ton of games where I couldn't before

I just started doing some research on the steam deck as a future potential purchase and am wondering about the battery life. For those who have one… How much game time do you typically get on a single charge?

I'm saving up for one. I need something simple and easy to use. I tried pc gaming and hated it but I love consoles (PS5) I'm thinking this will work for me.

Does it handle heavy gaming?

Perfect video dude 👍🫶

Can you get cod wz3 on the steam deck? Also can you gst Forza,gran turismo ect

Where can i place an order I need help please guys thanks

Does it run MK1 smoothly?

Pixel games, JRPGs, platformers, side scrollers, visual novels, most hack n slashes, older games, indies, etc take up the VAST MAJORITY of my time. Playing them on a handheld not only makes them more enjoyable, but also saves me a lot of storage space. There are a lot of games that're over 100gb out there, and I also have a few MMORPGs that I'd rather keep on PC than handheld (mainly bcuz MnK and ethernet) A handheld is just a nice excuse to own more than one PC instead of buying an even bigger hard drive or a laptop, and I'd also rather not sit at my desk for another minute smh. And since I don't play graphically intense games on it (Unless it's via steam link) and focus more on battery/playtime, I can't see myself actually upgrading to an SD sequel, or downgrading to any other PC handheld (which have always sucked at providing a competent portable experience) Valve would have to make MASSIVE improvements to the next Deck to convince me to upgrade 9:07 Absolutely true! Batteries are what make handhelds handhelds. Handhelds are portable-first. Batteries will ALWAYS be the bottle neck of ERRY handheld. Handhelds will NEVER be on par with anything else, even gaming laptops. That's the downside to handheld gaming If we had an Ark Reactor that could fit inside of a man's chest to power an entire city for the next 35 years, we can expect handheld gaming to jump straight to 4k lol. Heck, desktops would replace their PSUs with such batteries lol. A world where HARDWARE is the bottleneck of a handheld. But until then, battery tech will not be all that impressive Battery is what determines the hardware, and when you neglect battery in favor of higher end hardware and specs, you're left with a useless handheld and a subpar Mini PC with a battery shoved up its arse. What isn't going into performance, is going into Battery. So far, only Nintendo and Valve understand this

I am about to get one, but am struggling to choose the best, and searched about many gaming handleds, but the Onexplayer2 stood out of all the rest because of its huge display and it's Nintendo switch kinda concept, but it costs 400 dollars more then a steam deck and even 600 dollars more then the Rog Ally and for that price it would be fair to get a new gaming laptop, but my gut feeling is saying me to go for the Onexplayer2

how u fix stick drift talk to me?

hi! wich is the case of the video at the begininng? 0:01 sec

For anyone that has both what’s the verdict? Go the cheaper LCD option or the OLED? Trying to decide for my first deck

Have owned my Ally for months and have never had a blue screen error.

My view is the ally and the legion go aren’t that much powerful than the steam deck bc if you did use all the power available then your battery will die and for what 30 minutes to an 1 hour of gameplay no for me the SD oled is the best for long periods of handheld use which is how I prefer to game when I had my launch switch I mostly played handheld and I docked when I wanted to I do the same with the SD mostly handheld and docked when I want to be which is usually for games like homeworld or total war games the games that benefit from using key and mouse

Love steam deck 😍

I highly recommend the deck for non PC gamers that just want a console like experience also. The better performing handhelds are definitely meant for a an experienced pc owner. Most deck owners have been playing at 30fps the past 7 years. PC bros like the tinkering and pushing the limits.

The steam deck is the best pc handheld period. It is user friendly and has a console like user interface which I love. The lenovo legion go and the ally are pretty much windows laptops plus windows is a piece of shit OS full of bugs. Had to return my lenovo legion go for this reason. Blue screens out of the box plus games crashing. I will never buy another windows handheld. More than happy with my steam deck oled. Cant wait for the steam deck 2 later on.

Ngl Spiderman looks fun playing on steam deck

Bro could u do me a Favour could u check and see if a game called Last year the nightmare is playable/Verified on da steam deck if you still happen to have the steam deck that is and if you do could u check if its playable and let me no, I'd appreciate it bro am currently saving for one and want to be able to play it

When did bro get hair?

I would have picked this up if it wasn't for the sick placements. I use claw to hold controllers

Let it be known you can launch into Steam OS from the desktop app on windows, so if you want more power and the user friendliness of the Steam Deck keep looking at alternatives especially in 2024. The Steam Deck OLED is amazing though. -Steam Deck Windows User

Limited edition steam deck is best looking handheld right now, besides switch oled maybe

You know you can add live wallpapers to your Steamdeck Oled right???

He gets like two or three hours of battery life how long to recharge back up to power.

I just ordered a steam deck it reminds me the sega game gear appearance wise but I'm ready to break into the modern game scene I been into the retro scene way too long

I also plan on using youtube tv on my steam deck

Why do you have 60 fps in uncharted ?

Been loyal To the Deck. But Im feeling MSI Handheld tho.

How many games do you think i can put in a 256 gb micro sd card?

The steam deck is the most powerful handheld in the world and I'm excited to receive the game I hope it's around for years

Could steam deck play offline, or without internet

I'm really impressed by what Valve did, but I'm not willing to buy the same game twice just to have it in my Steam library - I've got plenty of games I wish to play on the go on other launchers. And don't even get me started on all free indie titles from Epic that could easily run on any device. I wish Steam Deck offered dual boot, but I'm afraid it's not gonna happen.

Great video got mine a month ago and it’s amazing

red magic 9 pro and ds4/5 controller

My LCD steam deck got stolen ;-; So I have the perfect excuse to upgrade xD I’m kinda happy about it

I love mine. It’d be perfect if it could play Minecraft bedrock though. That’s the only thing I still use my pc for.

I feel like its perfect for anyone wanting to transition from console to pc.

In my country stream deck oled costs 150$ more than ally so its better to get ally i guess

At the end of the video you quickly state that the Steam Deck is not your ideal handheld and that there are many aspects that you hope the next iteration improves upon. What are those?

I cant wait for you to rip Msi Claw to shreds

Is good but since i buy the lenovo legion go im in love

Real talk. How does RDR2 perform on the SD OLED? People say it's great, but then they never truly showcase game play/walkthrough so it's hard to believe.

If only fc24 is working on steam deck

I own the lcd and play docked all the time so I don’t have a need for the OLED 😅

I can't even afford either of them so I wouldn't know. I wish I could but these school bills man

My steam deck is all I need.

I have a LCD 512gb and wish I got a windows based handheld. Steam deck is amazing, but it's linux based software holds it back

If the Steam deck supported every game launcher native and could playing nice with anti cheat software games. I would have bought it, in the meantime Windows handheld consoles are just better when it comes to gaming.

For me it's perfect device since PSP No need Nintendo, no need PS5 or XBOX Just Steam Deck

Hi bro, if it's not a secret, one question do you swing?

Dragon's dogma 2, GTA 6 and Monster Hunter wilds are on the horizon. The Steamdeck is NOT ENOUGH!

3:24 Imagine SteamOS being able to bypass anticheat LMAO. The purpose of anticheat is precisely to not allow this '-' Valve has nothing to do with this, the game developer that has to support SteamOS.

I wish i can have steam deck 😟

I like the ally better but I understand the appeal of the steam deck. I just don’t buy a lot of games on steam

Nice video.. Lend me one

I bought msi claw rog ally they all suck but steam deck oled is is powerful

you sayin you need the know how for the windows ui but no know how to install epic launcher on the steam deck? Thats just stupid

SteamDeck os is the best Lenovo Legion Go has the best hardware

Steamdeck os the best 😂🎉
