I can’t see paying more than a few hundred for this form factor. Love my Steam Deck, but for the times when I feel like being treated to a nicer gaming experience, that’s when it’s time to break out the real gaming rig with a 4K screen or a VR headset. With such a small screen, streaming games to the Deck on max settings via Moonlight / Sunshine doesn’t really look that much different than the same game on medium settings running on the Deck, so paying double or triple for a slightly more powerful machine with a slightly better screen doesn’t make a lot of sense for me.
