@AnonLordo I have had my steam deck for a year. I probably spent thousands of hours using the thing. I spent about 120 hours on the game Satisfactory alone.
Now it doesn't run every game perfectly, but it runs most games at an acceptable level. It's also great if you're into emulation. It's also fun to go into the desktop mode and tinker with Linux. I didn't think I was going to use the steam deck much to be honest, but it's a game changer.
I have a Nintendo switch, but I absolutely hate playing it in handheld mode. It's extremely uncomfortable for my hands. I will only use it on the tv with the pro controller. However I can use the steam deck all day long with no discomfort.
