Being a 40s gamer with bad eyes, the only thing I dislike about the Deck is the small screen size, which keeps me from using it handheld as much as I'd like to.
But it's my only PC currently, and it's fantastic docked with Bluetooth M&K. In every other way but the native screen, it's exceeded my expectations.
Down the road when it's time to upgrade, I'll probably get a device with a larger screen, but I will always love the Deck, which has convinced me that I'll probably never main a laptop again.
Thank you I find it really heartwarming that you still play video games.
Why? I mean those who first grew up with games can be 50+, and it's not like all games are for children.
I'm 47 and love my steam deck!
