How would you rate the OLED deck? Did you keep your LCD deck? Have you noticed any of the smaller improvements like a more responsive touch screen? Has the battery life improvement been noticable?

    Yes.

    The thing that has struck me the most is how much lighter it is. Nobody seems to be mention that, but that one small thing makes such an outsize difference.

    The battery life is also very noticeable, and you can multiply the benefit by using energy conserving settings.

    The other big difference is control responsiveness. If you play fighting games or other games with intense timing and accuracy needs, you WILL notice the difference.

    The OG Steam Deck is still great, but the OLED is just better in so many little, meaningful ways.

      Yeah the lighter weight is probably my favorite improvement too. I can enjoy a game quite a bit longer without my hands cramping or feeling tired.
