Valve releases Steam Deck handheld PC

Yeah, following some of the communities it feels that number of units in this batch is very limited. And even somewhat random. It seems it was mostly done just so Valve can say the actually "released" it in February even if there was zero possibility of consumer getting unit.

It seems that the lower price models are going out first if reports by reviewers are to be believed.

I managed to reserve the high-end model around minute 5 of release. My order is also lumped into the "After Q2" timeslot.

I expected to have to wait, but I can't help remember my luck eith the Valve Index which I managed to get within the first minute. The Index shipped and was delivered within four days (it got there that weekend).

Still excited for the Steam Deck, it looks quite promising.

Usually a wise move, I do the same with the mainstream game consoles. I waitied for the PS4 slim to come out, and it happened to be a great decision as the original PS4 didn't have a 5GHz wireless adapter. I know playing online using a wireless connection isn't ideal, but it's better to play on 5GHz than on the already crowded 2.4GHz.

You think second gen will include VRR?
