That anti glare is wack
I’m really glad for the LE hype since I find it pointless and gave me a better chance for a normal OLED
i’m still setting my sights on the 1tb regular oled. i think it looks just fine as is, plus i don’t get the money to buy it until like the 30th or something.
me waiting for oled sale
Give it a time, there will be lots of them on 2nd hand market by steam sharks that want to convert their skins earnings into USD.
So prices should come down on 2nd hand market in due time.
I’m kind of surprised the LE is still available at least in the US
It isn’t as popular as people on Reddit thought. This picture should be flipped lol
Lol wtf you can still add it. Why was I stressing haha
I got the 512gb version. Im putting a skin on it anyway
I’m shocked so many people are getting OLED screens with etched glass. The whole purpose of the screen is clarity. If you run into glare issues just put a matte glass protector on it boom. Can’t go the opposite direction.
Proud 512gb buyer here
I would of considered the LE if the glass screen wasn’t etched. I went with a 512 so I can swap in my 1tb drive I have already. May look into a custom shell once they have a colorway I like for the Oled model
I bought the 1tb OLED thinking this was the version that was limited edition smh
I’m already replacing the SSD, so I wasn’t gonna bother with the limited edition model.
Seeing posts on Reddit talking about stock issues I was genuinely worried, but I had zero troubles buying my 512GB OLED Deck lol
512 gang checking in
and then there’s me me buying a 512gb original model from ebay for 200 dollars
The real limited edition is the Australian edition.
I was dead set on getting the LE model because I loved the red-orange accents. But I was annoyed by how little press coverage there was on it. I wanted to see what the unit looked like outside of a photo studio setting with perfect lighting. Thankfully Gizmodo pulled through before I was able to place my order, because man did my impression of it change completely…
I think the outer shell is opaque enough not to look too cheap, like a MadCatz controller, but it’s just not doing it for me personally. I’m curious to see if dust is going to show easily underneath over time. This shot also leaves me with the impression that some of the power/charge indicator light might bleed through the top edge while playing games in a dark room. Hopefully that’s not the case because that would be distracting as hell.
I still like the red-orange accents though. It only makes sense to have more parts of the device match the color used for the power button. But it also dawned on me that I wouldn’t be able to find matching color parts if any future repairs are needed (including the orange screws). I like knowing whatever spare parts I buy on iFixIt will match the exact unit I have. I guess that’s the downside with any limited edition model of anything really.
It’s doing the opposite for me. I think I’m liking it even more after seeing some closer imagery. I’ll give it to you on the LED, though. I don’t really play where it would be dark enough to matter, but that may well trigger people who do like play in bed with the lights off.
I’ll just also say, damn, Hi-Fi Rush looks good in that one shot. That might be my first play on the new Deck.
