In the leaked info, we know that Valve has an upcoming device that will use the same APU as the current Steam Deck. We don't know if this will be a new VR headset or a Steam Deck hardware refresh. Even though using the same APU means there won't be a performance increase, there could be various other improvements in an upgraded Deck like a better screen, etc. What would you like to see in a partial hardware upgrade?

I would say a APU with some RT Cores, and maybe 1080p. If not 720p OlED will be fine. I know this is likely to compete with the ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion both of which have 1080p screens

I don't think raytracing on a 15w power budget is going to happen anytime soon.

The APU thats in the deck already has "RT cores". At least, inasmuch as any RDNA2+ device has them.

Though I really doubt this is an updated deck, and much more likely to be "Deckard".

1080p is so unnecessary at this size IMO.
