I’ve been on the fence for a while thinking about getting myself a steam deck. I got a great gaming computer and I’m wondering if it can possible accompany it in some way, or is it just the excitement of getting new tech kicking in.

What do you do with your steam deck? What makes you glad that you got it?

    Thanks for all the inputs! That was very very helpful! Few things I’ve learned so far: 1 - It’s great for times that you don’t wanna stay in the office all day and spend more time with your loved ones. 2 - You can use Moonlight and Steam Link to local-wifi connect to your PC and play games on it without spending as much battery with a good wifi connection. 3 - It’s AMAZING for commuting and times you are not at your gaming rig 4 - You can basically install anything on it, and it could potentially replace your PC if it’s not as-capable.

    I guess I won’t be purchasing it at the time as I have figured I could remote-play on my iPad 12.9 inch, and atm I’m not commuting so much so I guess it’s just a shiny gadget that I’d love to have sometime but don’t really need to spend money on it right now.

    I’ll probably wait a few years for SteamDeck V2 to come out (rumors are saying it’ll be here at 2026+ so we’ve got a lot of time!) and it’ll replace my current laptop then.

    Thanks everyone! That was very helpful and I learnt a lot from it! Saved a few bucks thanks to you guys and found a new cool way to enjoy my iPad :)

    EDIT: Fuck it I’m getting one.
