Review consensus

What reviewers say about the Steam Deck OLED

Reviewers call the Steam Deck OLED the version of Valve's handheld to buy. The HDR OLED screen, longer battery life, cooler running and lighter build all get praise. Performance is the same as the LCD model, though, so demanding new games still need tuned settings, and handhelds with a Ryzen Z1 Extreme or newer chip run them faster.
