I don’t do much handheld gaming, but I’m going to have some overseas flights and long-ish train rides later this year, and may also be having surgery that will keep me fairly bedbound for about a month. I’m just not sure how much money it’s worth spending on a deck that I likely won’t use much outside of those specific cases - I bought a switch when I got covid in 2020 and used it a ton at the time but I’ve only used it a few times since, though I miiight use a deck a bit more just because I already have a pretty extensive steam library.
Is it better to stick to the cheapest model or is there enough of a difference that it might be worth spending a little more for a nicer one?
I got the 64gb from the wait-list which ended the day before it arrived in the mail. I put in an aftermarket 1tb nvme 2230 and the tiny emmc thing is in my router now. At the time that I did it, I believe the ifixit guide suggested peeling off the foil shield thing but I just slid it off and on to the new one without unwrapping it. It was pretty easy but if you haven’t taken many things apart, just get one of the bigger models. There are a number of annoyances with just 64gb and that model totally existed just for people like me apart from having a drive at all, which is probably so people don’t cluelessly buy one with no drive and complain.
