bought my gen 1 a bit after they came out.

ordered my gen 2 OLED day they announced.

This generation is a great product. They might fall down in the future but for now, the team deck is an amazing product

Isn’t the OLED more of a gen1.5? It’s mostly a screen upgrade

Yeah the oled is like a mid generation refresh.

Battery life is much improved. The screen is quite a bit larger, and much crisper. I think the speakers sound better than the one I had before?

I'd say more like a 1.7. Virtually everything was improved.

I got the no -oled like a month before th announced it. But I I’ll wait for a bigger upgrade before buying a new one.

Yeah I had a freind borrowing my non-oled one and I felt like he would enjoy keeping it, so I just kicked it down and splurged on the OLED.

Its a pretty big improvement. The screen is kinda wow, the audio is great, the power is solid. 3x battery life? Its a real improvement on something that was already great.

Battery life isn’t too important to me as I only play at home, so chargers are basically everywhere.

But I’m sure the screen is a big improvement. But I’ll get it when the next steamdeck comes out,

one thing I will say about the cable on both, is that it should be an angled connector like it is on the dock. it stands proud and is annoying if you playing laying down like I do before bed

You mean the usb-c cable?

I just use whatever is laying around. It doesn’t bother me.

I'm just commenting more on it as part of the overall package. It seems like a bit of an iversite in their part
