I was on the edge buying the thing and told myself that if I use it 50 hours it's a reasonable purchase. Now I'm sporting closer to 200h within one year I could not be happier.

Did you have any (self made) goals when buying Steam Deck? Did you achieve those? Or did you buy it and now it's collecting dust? I'm curious

Well over 100 hours so far, which is a lot for me personally.

I use to to play Steam games, emulate GBA games, play non-steam games, watch TV, Movies, and YouTube.

I used it as my computer recently at an old school LAN party.

I play card games, turn based strategy games, RTS games, FPS games, arcade games, couch co-op games. It's awesome to play on, it's awesome to mod, it's awesome to use as a portable device, as a home console, or as a portable PC.

I use it with friends on Discord, I listen to podcasts and music while playing by myself. I've used it traveling locally and across the country. I'm gunna use it tomorrow on my TV to watch a live sporting event.

There just hasn't been any real significant complaints I've had at all. It does everything I can think of and more. It's one of the best purchases I've made in years.
