I need to get a Steam Deck soon, I can’t really play many games on my (Corebooted) Chromebook with an Intel Celeron CPU and Integrated graphics, or should I get a better Laptop to play Games instead of a Steam Deck?
Steam Deck rules. I’ve got decent PC, but I stopped using it for games almost entirely since I got my SD! But I think it depends overall. It bought me on 2 factors: convenience and input.
I get it to lay on bed or couch, press a button and use all the time for gaming.
Plus countless ways to play games that aren’t really for mouse and keyboard or I don’t like how it controls by default.
I guess that’s true, it’s not like I’d get rid of my existing laptop and replace it with the Steam Deck, steam Deck will just be a games machine.
Edit: Wow I just looked at the Deck’s Storage Pricing, that is crazy expensive for such little storage, especially when the ROG can be had for $369 (slightly used) and has 1TB of internal space coming with it. Does the Steam Deck ever go on Sale?

there’s refurbished models, and also you can just pick up the 64gb one and upgrade the storage internally, it just uses an m.2 2230 I believe
