All I need from Valve is confirmation a Steam Deck 2 will exist - I don't care how many years in the future that is. I just want to know if this is a "let's quickstart the PC handheld market, here, take this as an example and go nuts" versus "this is now a hardware category we are invested in, we will make new units"

I’m so happy to hear this. I’m getting a steam deck next week and have been wired that a faster version would be right around the corner.

I can't imagine they'd be able to use an off the shelf processor for the next one. The performance at lower wattages on the deck is so much better than current laptop processors or the Z1.

they'll most likey fix screen and battery issues first along with stick drift.

I just want to be able to use a password manager with Steam for online games.

A faster one won't exist, fine. what about an oled deck?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't hold your breath. So far, Valve has only released like, one generation of all of their hardware. But their hardware is pretty decent.

The next one will be 1080p and I can't see the battery life and cost being right for yeah a couple years.

This is good news for my wallet I guess, although it makes me wonder what's up with that "Sephiroth" APU that showed up in the Linux Kernel. I'm so happy with my current Steam Deck that I don't really need another iteration on it right away anyway.
