    They don’t want to compromise battery in favor of performance and I agree. With smaller games like Hades or cult of the lamb my steam deck battery will last and last. On more demanding games like cyberpunk or Armored Core I get a little over an hour out of it best case scenario.

    Beefier graphics hardware will only make that issue worse.

      I so often use mine plugged in as I’m not walking or in a park, I’m on a bus or train which can often have a plug, so not much of an issue there, however I’m not playing high-end games, it’s so good for stuff like Hades and whatnot.

      Personally I don’t plan on playing big games like these on the go anyway, so battery life isn’t going to be a problem.

      I was thinking of getting a docking station with an m.2 slot for those bigger games to play when I’m home.

      Only waiting for new generations of GPUs and CPUs can help there I guess, those usually push things a lot in a performance per wat comparison!

      The battery life is already 5 seconds. No need to make the problem worse.
