I can afford it and the chances are really nice, but I won’t buy the new version. There will be a Steam Deck 2 in 2-4 years with substantially better hardware and until then, the LCD version will do just fine.
Yeah, this is what I’m thinking as well. I got one during the summer sale this year; these improvements are nice but not worth trying to upgrade so soon.
Damn.
I want one, but on the other hand I already have the “original” variant. But FOMO kicks in really hard right now.

You’re most likely right. I’m not going to watch any reviews and low-key forget it exists.

I just wait for the Deckard… I hope this will be a thing, especially when seeing the SteamVR Beta, it got closer to the steam deck
What does the market look like for used steam decks? Maybe that can subsidize the upgrade cost
