Wtf kind of question is this? Of course it is. And in 10 years it still will be.
In 10 years I would expect a SteamDeck 2 with updated hardware.
Sure, fair enough. But the OLED Steam Deck will also still be a great system in 10 years, especially for anyone who has a gaming desktop. With local game streaming, even with aging hardware the Deck will still be able to play the latest AAA games, and it will still be able to play hundreds of thousands of older games natively.
As a patient gamer, it's a no brainer.
The wait for the steam deck 3 will be painful though
10 years ago, maybe? It's a 1 (one) megapixel brick.
