So is it likely for a refresh?
I'd estimate that the refresh cycles are more like consoles (5y) than PCs (1y). But noone really knows.
I suspect it will come somewhere between the two, something like two and a half to three years.
I wouldn't be surprised to see a Steam Deck 2 towards the end of next year.
I'm hoping for Deckard first before another Deck.
I would think so. Or maybe it'll have a way of upgrading the motherboard with a new APU
The deck uses a SOC… putting aside the fact that it directly soldered to the motherboard you can’t replace these components individually. The only possible approach would be an entire motherboard swap.
That's what I meant. Like how Framework is doing it.
