Cheapest way to get a steam deck from Valve, perfect for upgrading the storage as long as you're willing to open it up and do a bit of tinkering.

sorted byThe Steam Deck is a 7-inch handheld that runs games from Steam (and other PC games), similar to a Nintendo Switch (review). Generally it requires internet access to download games at first, but those games are often playable offline.
Buy the 64GB version and 'for now' try it with a 256GB/512GB/1TB micro sd card (and upgrade the internal drive 'at some point'). CeX sell secondhand 2230 NVME drives (256GB from around £18 delivered).
Search Steam for games "Verified" or "Playable" on the Steam Deck or browse those "Great on Deck"
Check the compatibility of games in your library (in client, visit Steam Deck page, follow link titled "Check your library's compatibility").
ProtonDB lists games sorted by user score and those Verified for Steam Deck sorted by user score
Install EA Play / Epic Games and GOG (Heroic Launcher) / Itch.io launchers
Play emulated games on it (pcgamer.com/ste…on/ or EmuDeck)
Play Xbox Game Pass Cloud Gaming games (list) on it (saves battery vs running Windows), also Xbox Remote Play.
Play PS5/PS4 games remotely
Add Chrome shortcuts for Disney Plus, Netflix, Spotify etc.
VibrantDeck (for brighter images, pretend you have OLED) with Decky Loader.
CryoUtilities 2.0 for better game performance
Battery life guides (turn down frame rate etc., e.g. optimise the demanding God of War from 1.5hr to 2.5hr. Less demanding 2D/strategy/streaming games last 5/6hrs. Buy a battery pack?

The suggestion that the Steam Deck Dock is the best docking station

Emulation takes about 10 mins to set up and it's sorted forever pretty much. I'm not that technology proficient but it seemed extremely intuitive to me
Most games seem to run fine off the MicroSD though providing you've used a decent SD card.
The performance on triple A games is so much better than I thought it would be. Running Cyberpunk at a steady 60fps on a mix between medium and low settings. It looks great. Not that much noticeably different from playing High/ultra settings on my desktop on the small screen.
Also running FIFA 23, Switch games, BOTW Wii U, GTAV.
Epic, EA, Ubi, GOG stores all working natively along with Gamepass cloud streaming.
I overpaid by £241 for the 512gb model back when my place in the queue hadn't come yet and I had a 3 week holiday approaching.
I really missed my Steam deck, its reliable plain and simple. Also over 1/2 the price helps.
Literally like brand new. Can’t complain at all.
Is this what I need or has anyone got recommendations?
As for the ROG, more likely as they have a number of sellers who could fight for competition
