sorted byAs for battery life it literally depends on what you play. Indi games like holo knight, Celeste, Stardew valley and crosscode can be played for 6-7+ hours whereas more demanding games (like outerwilds) can drain the battery in about 2.
Bigger battery = more weight and a bigger deck so that isn't going to happen anytime soon. A usb PD power bank offering 45w is a good option.
Look at Alan Wake 2 - it seems to be a real faff getting it to run on a Steam Deck and then the recommended settings are 266p with FSR upscaling to 800p with most settings off or low.
I have the 64gb version with the intent of upgrading the SSD eventually. But games run perfectly fine from these memory cards (edited)
Biggest advantage of the deck is the portability, welcomed change away from the pc. Love the steam deck.

As an example I bought the kids Mario Wonder and it's great, I have also emulated it on the Deck. I don't really enjoy it less because the screen is not as vivid. I find IPS panels perfectly adequate for 99% of situations. If you can't bring yourself to play something because of its not an OLED display then you really are missing out on a brilliant experience on the Deck. I in all honesty prefer this to playing the PS5.
Altho I will be super excited to order soon. The dark souls trilogy handheld is something I can't ignore (edited)
Best purchase for years, playing games on it I normally wouldn't bother with on pc or laptop but for this form factor they just seem great.
Was holding fire to see if there was 10% off or similar for the steam sale end of November way, instead I've grabbed this instead. Was planning on purchasing the 64gb anyhoo, if no % off for sale, so just gone for this instead. Been checking on the refurbs for a good few weeks to see if any popped up.
Find myself a dock now for black friday, and I'll be sorted (edited)
