Is the OLED Steam Deck worth it?

Thinking of picking one up. I'd use it to play comfy non-AAA games in bed for snuggle time :marseyneet:

I've been playing on my laptop but the ergonomics suck and its a pain in the butt :marseypain:

I also travel a fair bit and it would be great to soy out in business class :marseysoyswitch:

All the internet reviews seem kinda astroturfed so I'll ask the most reliable people I can think of: The socially inept r-slurs of rdrama :dramatardlove::dramatardlove::dramatardlove:

Why not just do the steam link to your phone thing

I used to do this then got a deck and the deck is way better.

Streaming from your PC to your phone with a controller is something that sounds good on paper but in practice it's always a hassle due to things like having to turn the PC on first (could never get Wake-on-LAN working with it), connecting the controller to the phone, having lag spikes every now and again due to wifi interference, etc.

Meanwhile the deck is as simple as turning it on and clicking play.

Also he wants it for a plane ride so streaming is out of the question anyway.
