A steamdeck is a better deal!
Not always and not for everyone. If you want to output a decent quality image to a TV to play on the couch, then the Steam Deck isn't exactly a great choice because it can't really do that, it struggles to maintain playable framerates in modern games at its own native resolution, nevermind a TV's (either 1080p or increasingly often 4k). If all you play is older and/or indie games it might still work fine, but it's not a one size fits all.
Understatement of the decade, IMO!
I’ve barely touched my Steam games library as it is, have just dived headfirst into emulating my retro game collection (PS1, 2, 3 & Portable); along with SNES predominantly - because fuck Nintendo.
