Agreed. It's hard to believe anyone still recommends Asus after the whole GN debacle.

Steam Deck has the OLED display, better efficiency/battery life, is hundreds of dollars cheaper, is supported by a company that actually cares about it's customers, and doesn't need to mess around with installing a different OS.

If you're in Asia, that debacle is a non-issue. Their support in Asia has been great for me. I'm on the Steam Deck camp but they're still my go to for gaming laptops.

Just because you haven't personally experienced issues doesn't mean they don't exist.
