Hard disagree on the case. The Steam Deck is not made to be dropped like your average Game Boy. Far too expensive, and far too fragile.

I have dropped it exactly 1 time, 2 feet off a couch and I had to replace both triggers on one side.

The cases are not expensive. I had the Spigen one for $15 and now I have the Jsaux Mod Case.

The Jsaux Mod Case which is nice because it allows you to slide a battery pack on, and it has a hard screen cover so you can slap it in a bag, and not worry.

But I mostly use it because it allows me to use a lanyard.

Also I've never seen the bottom crack "from stress" but again I only dropped it once.


Side note:

It is a heavy device, it is giving me cubital tunnel syndrome from propping my elbows on tables. No idea what to do about it other than play less.

The Back Buttons on their own are not great.

IF you are going to do some customization - I highly recommend swapping them out.

I only did the back plate and I keep it in a case so I barely notice the clear purple back but I Do notice the new triggers. They feel so much better.

Hot take:

Live far enough away from your neighbor for their wifi not to reach.

You need about an acre. Just live in the Boonies. Solve your network and physical security at the same time.

You buy the head unit, and then you put the cameras wherever you want???

What are you talking about?

Well that's certainly nicer than how the French handled it

I never once thought I would ever hear Chevy and reliable in the same sentence. Having unfortunately owned a few Chevy ICE's myself.
