Valve won't sacrifice battery life to deliver a more powerful Steam Deck 2
(www.rockpapershotgun.com)
We're not going to do a bump every year. There's no reason to do that. And, honestly, from our perspective, that's kind of not really fair to your customers to come out with something so soon that's only incrementally better. So we really do want to wait for a generational leap in compute without sacrificing battery life before we ship the real second generation of Steam Deck. But it is something that we're excited about and we're working on.
It's refreshing to see someone that understands their customers. I often experience buyer's remorse with even products I like and have thoroughly researched and use often. Never once have I felt like I wasted money on the SD, and it just feels like it constantly gets better.
