I like having a larger screen for games, if I can manage it.

I think that the Steam Deck is particularly interesting for people who want to play games on the move. Like, you’re waiting in line at the grocery store or whatever. Especially if it’s somewhere where you can’t sit down, so a laptop – even if you’re willing to carry one – isn’t an option.

Nothing else does a fantastic job of filling that niche. The closest thing is probably a smartphone running mobile games with a controller, but that isn’t really as convenient or, in most respects, capable. Or the mobile consoles, which aren’t as capable either.
