I am pretty happy with my SteamDeck over all. I have not had need for it, but have watched a few repair and tear down videos and I have to say that I am pretty impressed with it. I think it very considerate for a company like this to make a device that is relatively easy to repair on your own or if you are THAT uneasy about it, should not cost much for somebody else to do it. It is also smart as a system that is down is a system that isn't being played or adding/buying new titles.

I have not messed with the browser much. I do agree with base storage,m I got the biggest one and really does not hold that many big games. At the same time, you can add more storage with MicroSD and that works well.

I think the screen size is fine for what it is. Unless they made a base system that could attach to various screen sizes and interchangeable controllers for a more custom feel, I think it is a good size.

Ports needed for what? You hook it up to a dock and you have more ports. Having more ports while using in hand is asking for more things to break.

The screen to body ratio definitely needs to get improved.

I am happy with how it is right now. You really cannot add more screen without sacrificing ergonomic space for the buttons or making it larger than it already is.

Storage can be bypassed with SD cards. USB ports can be obtained with a dock, which you should use if you are planning on using things like mouse and keyboard.

I only wished keyboard access was quicker and more convenient than Steam+X.

Yes you can... replace the black area, which is already under the glass, with actual screen.

No...no you can't?

You should look at the videos of the breakdowns of them. The design is very well thought out and planned. I do not think that would work without increasing the size of the unit, which is already kind of large for a handheld.

For external, I figured I would use on my Gaems Vanguard G190 or something if I want on a larger screen. You start getting bigger than you kind of goes into laptop size. Want larger, go to PC size.

The web browser isn't an issue. Install Firefox or Chrome and you're off to the races.

More storage is always nice, but at least they've made it easy to do yourself. I bought the 64 GB version, then I bought a 1 TB SSD for about $110 from Microcenter. I also added a 512 GB SD card. I'm not hurting for space at all.

I don't think I would want a 9" screen. This device is already pretty big. Any bigger and we'll really start stretching the definition of "portable".

Who is so criminally braindead as to still be using Chrome at this late stage?

You're in luck, OP, because I believe improving the screen (to OLED?) was one of the highlights from their recent interview. They also seek to improve battery life from the first model.

Other than that, not sure how much else will change.
