That said, the Deck does have a massive and active community, so any problem you have will be documented somewhere else. Valve also partneredwith iFixIt and repair parts are readily available.

It's not just a larger battery, it's also much more efficient node that the APU is on.
It's similar to the V1 Nintendo switch versus the V2 or OLED.

And yes, from my first hand experience I can easily play the OLED for over 3 hours when traveling. I was lucky to get 1 hour out of most games with the LCD Deck. So I think my assessment and the above video are a mic drop moment in this conversation.
My goodman, you're not earning a commission!
Most of the time you are lucky to get a 10% increase of battery life between generations of similar devices, over double is pretty darn special if you ask about any mobile device user.
BTW, where is my commission check

Sorry, I was trying to match the absurd hyperbole of "exorbitant premium." That quarter a day over two years is likely to bankrupt the world bank

and that's all super important, as 90 percent of people play plugged in or...near a plug in. LoLz
You know will really blow your mind, I used a laptop to post this comment....and it isn't plugged into the wall either. Neither is my cell phone. Crazy! "LoLz" type stuff. How did I survive?

Another idea is maybe buying a $400-500 gaming laptop with GPU? That will cost a little more but with a dedicated GPU should still run circles around the SD on a larger screen.
You may want to watch some benchmark videos to compare options.
And the battery isn't the only difference between the LCD and OLED....wonder would could be the other huge selling point between them? I just can't put my figure on it.
But to be fair, the LCD Steam Deck is still great.

Nobody is disputing the OLED is better. But at $213 more (62%), it's not just a "little" more. And again, it really depends on your individual gaming needs. I personally never play for more than 60-90 minutes at a time anyways and already have a 20,000mha battery for my phone and stuff when I travel. If you frequently play 2+ hour sessions on the go, then sure, the OLED is probably a better choice, assuming you can afford it.
But this deal, at $337, is solid if you are looking to spend less than $400 on a gaming device. Worse comes to worse, you can resell the 512GB LCD for around $290-300 for a small loss.
