I made this exact mistake when the Switch OLED came out. I got caught up in hype, I bought the new one, and slowly it dawned on me that I just spent 300 extra dollars for exactly the same machine I already had, and a screen that, as good as it was, was NOT worth that 300 dollars.

If you don’t own a Steam deck, then go nuts! Do what you want.

If you already own a Steam Deck, you already own everything you actually wanted a Steam deck for. An OLED screen is not going to make the games you already play somehow magically better. You’re fine. Chill out

    I wouldn’t mind getting the OLED SD but quality control and Valve don’t go hand in hand in my experience. I had to send back 2 SDs before I got one that worked for longer than 1 month. I don’t want to deal with that again so I’ll stick with what I got since I know it works.
