Now I gotta grab a Micro SD. Not sure if I should get a 512 or 1 TB.Finally!!
Go for the TB, or the largest possible. I wish I did, but I wasn't sure how it would perform for Triple A games.Now I gotta grab a Micro SD. Not sure if I should get a 512 or 1 TB.

As I mentioned in another post I got this one, and Final Fantasy 7 Remake is on it. I had no idea it was running off of it. It was only supposed to be for emulation. It ran as well as any other triple A game on the SSD, or least it wasn't noticeably different.
I got it on a great sale, so I'm not too pissy about it. I'll def be upgrading to a TB when I see one on sale.
I used this guy's video to help select one. These Youtuber thumbnails are cancel lol
No worries. Yeah, the Samsung is slightly best in read, but the Sandisk Extreme is better is write and load. The differences are minor, so I doubt any of us wouldn't notice anything between the two, outside size options. I chose my card because it was on such a great sale.From what I’ve seen the Samsung is the fastest but is limited to 512. Thanks for your input btw, I would’ve assumed the same as you and not put as much thought into the SD.
People have figured out how to get Game Pass working on Steam DeckMan, I'm really on the fence about getting either an iPad + Game Pass or the Steam Deck. I travel a lot for work and want something to pass the time because work travel sucks 95% of the time.
With the iPad + Game Pass, I get games for a monthly sub but would need to rely on hotel Wifi
With the Steam Deck I get much better performance but need to have games loaded.
It might come down to picking the Steam Deck because from what I've read, it can be plugged into your TV and you can play games that way. So I will have a Swtich, PS5 and Steam Library. However, I'm not sure what the limitations would be using it as a hub.

Not sure if that helps with your decision
It’s glorious…
Have fun!First impressions are overwhelmingly positive. The thing is massive but doesn’t feel it at all. Build quality is very high as well, feels like a premium machine and sticks and buttons feel great.
Oh and then you can play fucking Sekiro or God of War on a handheld so that’s amazing.
The screen isn’t the best quality, I wish they would have gone with an OLED for the premium models but turning the brightness down helps prevent a washed out look. Battery isn’t great but to be expected.
I can’t wait to really dive into this thing.

Not yet and I’m not sure if I’ll take advantage of the functionality as I have my PC hooked up to my TV. I’ve only played off the charger so far but I’m curious to see now. Off I could’ve gotten over two hours of Sekiro pretty easily. Probably closer to 3 based on the settings I was using.Have you tried docking it on a TV yet by chance? Also, how are the battery levels when in use and charged? My switch likes to lose battery while also being charged which is odd. I plan on using it for business travel so an HDMI or bringing a docking station would be something I'm interested in.

Mine came with a nice carrying case that has room for accessories like an external power source or cables.

New video from DF going over the dock function. I haven’t watched it but it might be helpful for you.
