@empirezz2728 I sold it for £210. The Oled is a very nice upgrade, videos on KZread don't do it justice.

By the way upgrading the drive does NOT void the warranty If you cause damage during the swap that is not covered

I am glad the OLED model exists and it's definitely the right choice for new buyers. I just don't see it being worth the hassle of selling my LCD model and paying more for a relatively marginal upgrade. Especially if you play with the Dock a lot it doesn't make that much of a difference. Sooner or later they'll come out with a proper successor to the original Deck with even better specs and I'll feel compelled to do the same thing then. I'm like that with my GPU too. Sure, I can upgrade my 3070 for a 4080 but why spend the money if what you have is already more than serviceable for the time being and something even better is around the corner? Not knocking anyone's choice but I'd rather just invest in a new device I don't own like the Analogue Pocket or a Mister.

Nice review keanu ❤

Thank you 😁

I have the LCD only because when I was in Japan the OLED was completely sold out. Steam Decks aren't available in Australia. I'd say definitely worth upgrading if it's possible for you to. The Battery life improvement ALONE on the OLED is worth it.

OLED is definitely worth it.. battery life is amazing on this

Yes. Yes it is.

I'm good I will stick with the lcd upgraded the drive in 15 minutes no biggie also doing this does not void the warranty

Your conclusion was spot on to me. I would also say that those that prefer AAA titles would benefit from the upgrade.

tbh i find that i am benefiting the most by playing the colourful indies 😀

I'm so tempted to get the oled to replace my current deck, but I'm gonna hold out. I hope the deck 2 is the same price or less. Also want money just in case a Steam Machine drops out of nowhere. Not likely, but you never know.

Very nice video

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you’ve liked it ❤️

I'm enjoying the Steam Deck but skipping the OLED, Why? Microsoft might release a handheld shortly, in addition other competitors will release their new devices. I'm certain the Steam Deck OLED isn't Valve's last handheld. The next two years should be interesting.

Just bought a used 1tb oled for $500. It’s in Amazing condition as well

You should know that the OLED screen flickers and no Dimming compensation till now, so most people have sore eyes after half an hour of play, unlike the LCD version.

Just finished a three hour session of last of us part 1. I dint experience any flickering.

SSD can be replaced in like 5 to 10 minutes :D

Not 100% agreeing with every point in the conclusion. If you don’t own one yet, there’s still an argument to go for the LCD if cost is important to you. A Valve refurbished 64GB is £249 vs £479 for the cheapest OLED. A new customer doesn’t have to absolutely go for the newest one.

That's a very valid point, totally agree.

If you can sell it yes otherwise no. Do we really live in a world where you buy a product for a couple hundred bucks and one year later it’s already old news.. and you have to spend another couple hundred bucks on a revision 😅 consumerism at its finest

Absolutely agree, I ended up selling my original version and with just only 20% lost on depreciation, I had a newer better revision.

Are you guys worried about burn in since this is oled?

@TechSergey

That’s a great question, as far as I’m concerned, modern OLED screens have all kinds of protective mechanisms for it, Steam Deck itself will by default put the display to sleep after some time. In the 99% of use cases it means there’s nothing to worry about

The Wullfden KZread video showed you can burn in if you're blasting bright games at 1000nits constantly for many many hours. Just don't run at the Max brightness possible for 20 hours straight and you'll be okay.

you don't lose warranty if you change nvme

@TechSergey

You are absolutely correct. However, if you need to have a warranty claim to Valve, you'd have to replace the SSD to the original one before sending it back to them. Also, if you break your Steam Deck while replacing the SSD - warranty also doesn’t cover it.

Ppl still debating about this ?? 😂

Not worth if you want upgrade, go for rog ally extreme, that one can still play new AAA games like Dragons Dogma 2 and SD oled can't. Plus still now SD is available in few countries Unlike Rog ally and Lenovo

Not worth to be honest
