It’s hard for me to imagine there are too many improvements left to be had in the hardware, other than the obvious eventual future improvements in power, efficiency, and energy density.

I can personally imagine a better screen, speakers, controls, ergonomics, cooling, another USB C port, slimmer and lighter, etc.

I know that most of these things are already good, but they can always be improved. We’ve already seen other handheld PCs do some things better so I imagine Valve can improve as well

With the OLED announcement, the only thing I‘m missing is a convenient dual boot setup and that‘s it lol

Legitimately curious, no judgment: why do you want this? Not dealing with Windows is one of the best features of the Deck, IMHO.

Game pass for games on the cheap i imagine.

Ah, OK. Incidentally, the cloud portion can be done without Windows by installing Edge on the Deck.

This works well.

Having to be online and with a good internet connection is not well suited for a handheld though, in my opinion.

100% agree. The Deck itself has offline mode, of course, but cloud gaming and mobility don’t really mix (ironic as it sounds).

Microsoft could release a customized Windows installer USB image that handles repartitioning and installs a touch friendly bootloader. Just like they’re not interested in releasing a GamePass client on Flathub, they rather support competitors like the Ally that come with Windows by default.

Bazzite supports dual-booting, so if you really wanted to, you could wipe your deck right now, install Windows, and then install Bazzite.

makes sense, it’s their most successful hardware product. I’d be surprised if they didn’t

They’ll stop at gen 3 or whatever would have had a 3.

Not a humble brag but I got about 4000 Steam games. Most from bundles, and I also have a 10+ yo account.

About 1000 of them are Steam Deck ready. And there’s a bunch of old school games that just do better on a portable device, like those JRPG games.

So I hope they continue their speed of fixes to make that number shrink!

Interesting. I've got an 18 year old account with somewhere north of 1000 games. There's a bit of selection bias, since I've been on Linux for the past 5 years, but my verified or playable percentage is closer to 2/3. When you say Steam Deck ready, are you only referring to verified? Because if you've got a very old game with small text or poor controller support, it's unlikely you'll ever see it switch to verified, but it may still be a good experience on the Deck.

I judge them by their track record. I am still waiting for their wireless vr that they said was coming.
