Given the pricing of the steam deck I am sure a SSD drive upgraded ps4 could be find cheaper as far as am aware Sony is still building the PS4 pro modal which is the budget version of ps4
Although the latest red magic 9+ gaming phone is with android 14 & red magic OS 9 which is well known for amazing for its super responsiveness in it's amazing touch screen 1tb ufs 4.0 fast storage & 24gb ram built-in cooling fans says 120hz screen oled screen game mode with so the soc can be overclocked on top giving even greater performance on top
just a better overall device I think plus monitor support I wonder if it support a touch screen monitor or if there be a way make this possible In the future
Given battery life is a big factor a snapdragon 8 gen 3 & adreno 750 mobile gpu must surely be better at this point With consideration of the upgrades over the older models and built-in gaming mode for gaming but the user requirements of use of software tool vmos for legacy apps as Google isn't supporting legacy or alternative app stores and is locking mechanism down the platform although Being a phone from redmagic there might be a work around plus must likely there's a Chinese version of this phone which is good as long as you can get the apps you need working on it and understand the software and setting it comes with side loading methods

YUKI93, 13 Nov 2023I still think there should be a secondary slot for storage ... moreWhat? You want to slow down the phone to 1/4 of its performance?

I still think there should be a secondary slot for storage expansion. Like Microsoft Surface Pro, I never liked the idea of using just one SSD slot for everything. That said, I do welcome the 90Hz refresh rate upgrade. If this first-gen OLED version already has it, I won't be surprised if the second-gen successor will have a 120Hz screen.

Kangal, 12 Nov 2023I reluctantly agree. The Valve SteamDeck is great for putt... moreI believe that Valve did this because it wants to make its product different. If Valve simply uses the more powerful APU, the price will probably be pretty much the same as that of the Asus ROG Ally. Why would people choose it over the Asus ROG Ally then? The Steam Deck OLED is much weaker than the Asus ROG Ally. However, the 512 GB model is significantly cheaper, and the battery life should be significantly better.

Chuck007, 10 Nov 2023Unfortunately, there's no stopping it. Fanboys aside,... moreSad thing is that you don't need need to pay them, there are loads of volunteers that will readily write any BS just to annoy other people, as long as they believe they are "anonymous" (which they are not).

The Valve SteamDeck is great for putting Linux into mainstream, driving innovation in the handheld space, and giving people a much needed alternative. It has sold more units than the combined of GPD, AYA, OneX, AYN, and Others.
But I’m still sticking with my previous idea, that the original Valve SteamDeck was late and should have been released in Q4 2019. This OLED refresh should have come mid-life, around Q3 2022. And the next model should come around Q4 2024. That's in order to stay relevant in the industry for AAA-Game Publishers. They change their development to suit the new-generation of hardware/console and software/game engines.

It's decent. However, the Asus ROG Ally is a better product. It comes with Windows 11, which means it has much better compatibility, and the APU is much more powerful.

Are you saying the current model doesn't even have OLED screen? Oh boy, as of now handheld consoles really don't stand a chance against smartphones... Three years ago I plugged in my Note20 Ultra into the pre-order freebie controller and played Forza 7 on a huge OLED screen!

Big W to gamers. The 256GB version, despite inflation, now costs the same as the anemic 64GB version.
The success of the Steam Deck is propelling Linux gaming from obscurity to mainstream recognition by developers. This will boost the usability and growth of free (as in freedom) operating systems. Take that, Microsoft, Apple, Google!
