minus-squarePut_It_All_On_Blck@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoIts more than just OLED too. People are probably going to be pissed that this came out of the blue if they recently bought a Steam Deck.

minus-squareREV2939@alien.topBlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoThe other little change that makes QoL much better is the longer cable on the charger. 2.5m cable vs 1.5m. I don’t sit near my outlets and I don’t want to bother with an extension cord.
