      Personally not too sure but I can at least say it's considered unsupported. You shpuod still be able to get it to run and set up custom control binds but it'll definitely take a little more effort than just native support.

          no, the deck charger is 30W and your phone charger is most likely not 30W or more, you're better off using your deck charger for your phone instead

            I agree with this anon. I actually do use my Deck charger to charge both my Deck and my phone on trips. Plus the Deck case neatly stores the charger under the strap on the back so it's technically not taking up any additional space in your storage method.

            don't listen to these guys. the deck charger specifically does one power mode for the deck. if I plug my phone into it it only slow charges because my phone uses 9v/20w

          Yeah I didn't quite understand it either. If someone wants a budget screen they may as well just stick with their default one. If someone is going to crack open their deck and install a new screen why wouldn't they make it more premium and actually a huge improvement? Hopefully DeckHD is just their entry level low budget option and there's plans for premium versions.

            I just learned about this and i don't get it at all. A resolution bump at that size seems like it'd barely matter but I guess the colors might improve a bit. My only real complaint about the original screen is its brightness, which this replacement doesn't improve at all.

            • 8 months ago
              Anonymous

              The color accuracy is better for sure on it but I don't even want the resolution increase. Probably barely noticeable on a 7 inch screen and it will only make my games run worse. I wouldn't mind just a Steam Deck native resolution OLED with good color accuracy and brightness. That's all I ask for.

      It's fine on its own. The screen is plenty resistant. Even if you're tossing it around and bringing it unprotected in your bags, it'll be years before you've fricked up the screen enough to matter. You child will be considering the next iteration by then.
      If you got the base version you might consider adding an SSD.

      What is your experience with both devices? Which one do you find you use more and what are some of your favorite features of both?

      • 8 months ago

        The Ally has a premium screen and runs modern games much better. That said it's a miserable experience getting it up and running that took hours of Windows updates plus ASUS updates. That said navigating Windows on it has honestly been much better than I expected with the touch interface and the ASUS software that allows you to change inputs or TDP modes or FPS caps actually works which is something I didn't expect. When this thing is plugged in and it can run at a 30w TDP it's actually pretty insane to see PS4 games running at 1080P 60 FPS.

        The Deck is much easier to setup and use though. Buy it, turn it on, log into Steam after it's done its initial boot and start downloading games. It's battery lasts longer and I find it more ergonomic to hold plus the trackpads are really helpful when you want to play actual older PC games. Also Emudeck makes emulation a piece of a cake.

        If I'm gonna be at home and want to play something relatively modern and hook it up to power, I'll grab the Ally but if I want to play something quick or an old PC game in bed I'll grab my Deck. And if I'm gonna travel and I'm not sure there's going to be power nearby definitely Deck and play older GBA or PS1 games at a low TDP

        • 8 months ago

          Thanks for the input. Probably will just stick with my Deck and PC for now then. Ally sounds a little more niche overall but the performance does sound good.

            Yeah I'd just wait honestly. It's a cool device but the performance upgrades aren't like 3x better than the Deck or anything. I just had money to burn and it was a spur of a moment thing

      >Install a different OS?
      Why? The Deck's greatest strength is being a PC that's as accessible as a console and that's only because Valve has total control over the OS

      >Any body modifications I should be doing like new analog sticks or a case?
      There's a lot of people who likes cases and some have swapped out the analog sticks with Hall sensor that won't drift

      >emulation
      Google Emudeck and it'll do everything for you. You just need to supply the bios and ROMs

      And if you got the 64 GB model think about replacing the internal with a bigger SSD even if you plan to use an SD card. The internal will quickly get filled up by shader caches otherwise

          Linux "just works" for a lot of games and actually makes some older titles like GTA IV and Bioshock run better because of Vulcan. Just google whatever game you're thinking of playing + "protondb" and see if it'll have any issues. The only titles that usually don't work on Deck are multiplayer ones because of anti-cheat

      Why get Deck 2 when Deck 3 will be better? But seriously though I do understand the sentiment if the current hardware doesn't serve your needs or the screen issues are a roadblock for you. Steam Deck 2 will likely be a better launch product than the original. I do love my Steam Deck and will probably upgrade to the next one.
