New OLED screen. New APU. And lots of small hardware improvements.

Just when the competition in the handheld space was ramping up, Valve comes back to dunk on them again.

It's pretty awesome that they also cut the price on the old model. The $400 LCD version now comes with a 256gb NVME SSD rather than the slow eMMC it came with.

Holy shit, now that's an upgrade.

And don't forget you also have the option to go refurbished if you want to save some money!

And if somebody wants cheaper they sell the older versions cheaper the 64 for $349.

Which if you don't plan to open it doesn't make sense, just go for the 256Gb you said but if you plan to replace the SSD on arrival is a much better idea.
