I'm so tempted to upgrade but I know I'm going to want a Steam Deck 2 in a couple years. Instead of thinking about it as the LCD vs the OLED model I need to think of it as choosing between the LCD vs the SD2. It's the only way to stop myself.
Don't blame you. I'm thinking that I will but that's only because a buddy of mine has already offered to buy my current one. I wouldn't consider it without selling the old.
This is what I’m thinking of doing. It’s a steep price increase for that etched glass though. I really wish they had went with the limited version across the board too because I won’t be able to get it until those are long gone and I absolutely love the look.
thank you. I needed this. Stay strong brother.
Why not both?
They’re not cheap enough to building a collection of them lol
You can sell an original for 200 - 300 now. You will be able to sell the OLED for that much when the SD2 comes out.
Trading in both will cost the same as riding the value of your original into the ground.
The lcd will diminish by the time the 2 comes out since the oled will have been out for a while and is the better model. Even if it doesn’t you’re still losing a fair amount before resale
That's my point
