I don’t do much handheld gaming, but I’m going to have some overseas flights and long-ish train rides later this year, and may also be having surgery that will keep me fairly bedbound for about a month. I’m just not sure how much money it’s worth spending on a deck that I likely won’t use much outside of those specific cases - I bought a switch when I got covid in 2020 and used it a ton at the time but I’ve only used it a few times since, though I miiight use a deck a bit more just because I already have a pretty extensive steam library.
Is it better to stick to the cheapest model or is there enough of a difference that it might be worth spending a little more for a nicer one?
That’s storage then. Memory means RAM.
Memory can also mean storage, but if you were confused by it it’s better to edit the post so there’s no confusion.

When has memory ever meant storage (not including people accidentally using the wrong term)? I’m genuinely curious because it’s literally in the name: Random-Access Memory.
RAM is a type of Memory, other examples are Read Only Memory (ROM), or more specifically the type of Memory I’m referring to in most lines, i.e. Non Volatile Memory express (NVMe). Lots of places use memory to refer to storage (especially in portable systems such as phones or consoles), while others use memory to refer to RAM, which is why the more clear names are RAM and Storage as pointed out before, which is why I edited my post to prevent further confusion.
PS: SDDs are also RAM technically speaking, the name of RAM to mean the large, fast temporary non-cache memory of computers in modern systems dates back to the time we used magnetic tapes for storage, which was a Sequentially accessed memory.
