I keep getting tempted to buy this or the LCD version, but I don't even play on the go. Anybody with a powerful desktop (mine is 6800xt) have a steam deck? Do you prefer one over the other!

@nieceandtows @abobla

You want one cause everyone is talking about it. You already said
you dont need it.

Mine sits next to my other
computers, and I dont really
use it, and Yes, I dare say
it, I put win11 on it!!!!

I use it to play roms and
test linux distros.

I have a 8 inch laptop
for bed, that perfect.
Light, not to bright.
easy on the eyes.

I love my steam-deck.
Its great for those long
streaks in the bathroom.

Ill never sell it-

Yeah I'm a sucker for small electronics. I have a GPD Win that wouldn't turn on anymore, but liked it when I had it. I stopped using it after a while for whatever reason, and it's not turning on now.

@nieceandtows

Good news, call them and ask for a replacement battery. You battery was recalled the GPD is fine, still works!

That battery when depleted went full empty. Bad circuit board.
Ask for the new one only. see if they honer your purchase.
new one should cost less then
30 bucks anyway
