Guys, would it be wise to buy a Deck now (almost end of 2023)? Since rumors about Deck 2 has surfaced. I'm afraid the Deck 1 will reach end-of-life soon.

I don't know if you saw it, but they just announced an OLED Steam Deck earlier today.

Should have the same motherboard/specs based on leaks, just a much better screen.

I'd probably wait and see how much it will sell for, and I'd they discount the non-oled decks.

LOL, I literally wrote that comment and went to sleep. Just to woke up the next morning to see the internet exploding with news about the refreshed Deck :)))

Definitely gonna get a 512GB OLED now. If I hold off till Christmas, I may even be able to get the 1TB. The SSD upgrade is overpriced but the anti-glare should be nice.

Being that it’s Linux, it shouldn’t have an end of life even if they stop selling it

Your disadvantage would be hardware
