Valve has said it’s “hard at work” on Steam Deck 2, while continuing to work on getting the Steam Machine, Steam Controller, and Steam Frame out the door.
This would be perfect, I mostly play the switch docked but the option to play on the go is nice. Add a keyboard and you’ve got a portable dev machine… take my money!
Yes, why do people always want bigger. In my opinion 7" is plenty and my device has a 6" screen that is perfect. I can actually hold the device for extended sessions without getting fatigued.
I would want a smaller device and larger screen. Aka reduce the bezels. The deck has comically large bezels.
Also, the size of the device does not have much to do with its weight. I would rather a larger comfitable device then a tiny one that gives me cramps to use. Lighter weight is always a plus. But not always worth the tradeoffs. I would not want a lightweight device that only lasts 30mins of usage.
It would also help spread Linux into the tablet market as well. If people were using their decks as a tablet as well that could lead to helping the future of an authentic usable Linux phone.
I don’t know the sizing, but I wonder if a keyboard could be added… Like how the switch has that piece that connects the two detached controllers into one controller… that middle piece could possibly be a keyboard.
2 usb-c ports, much bigger screen, much better APU, thats all I ask!
counter argument: make it pocketable
Steam Deck mini, same performance, pocketable, dockable.
I’d die happy, because this also means there’s a dockable linux laptop in my pocket, games-aside, that’s a well-added tool.

I’d settle for Switch 2 weight and thickness.
Detachable controllers, so that it can be a good Linux tablet as well! Dominate two markets!!!
Yes, that too! I’ve got a Lenovo Legion Go and its great with controllers detached
