Valve won't be releasing a Steam Deck with more performance until at least 2025. Given the smartphone market's reputation for disappointing incremental updates, this is the right choice. Valve should, however, throw gamers a bone with a Steam Deck 1.5.
This article is idiotic. “There are a number of steam deck killers already on the market”
Okay then why haven’t they killed the steam deck? Because they fucking aren’t steam deck killers, you can’t compete with that gaming library built in. I don’t give a shit how much better it performs on paper, if it’s pain in the ass to run games nobody will want it over a deck. Oh I have to install windows? Fuck that. So fucking tired of the “Insert Product Name Killer” thing. It’s bullshit
Steam Input & double touchpad is also an insane feature. Right now my main game is Dofus : a turn based tactical MMORP. This game is probably one of the most keyboard+mouse I could have thought of, however it has A LOT of keyboard shortcut. I maybe spent one hour fine tuning my layout and now it feels almost better playing it in console mode.
Turning a PC game into a console game like this almost feels like magic, I really love this big boy and really hope it will have successors in the distant future.
And also this game is not even on steam, the global openness of Valve letting me do whatever the f**k I want with my device is very welcome.
Duh, of course they are "Steam Deck Killer" I know what I am talking about playing "Wild Star" on my Windows powered consol that last 2 hours, you know, the "World of Warcraft Killer"

Um… seems you overlooked that the line links on an earlier article by them: Supposed Steam Deck killers are missing the point
They use that term in reference to that earlier article.

Jesus it’s like when the iPhone showed up and then suddenly every dumbphone with a touchscreen was an “iPhone-killer”
I remember the comparison on TV crowning the LG Voyager a superior.
It was, but that's beside the point
