    Steam deck and a gaming laptop don’t have the same niche. Laptop is great when you don’t have a permanent spot to setup a gaming computer, or traveling a lot for example, but still want to enjoy full experience. Deck is more for playing “on the go” so to speak.
    Buying gaming laptop was the best decision for me

      You can buy a USB dock and plug every peripheral into the Deck.

      You can use desktop mode, too.

      There is nothing the Deck can’t do. It has weaker hardware, but you can game on it just fine.

      I have mine plugged into a projector, for watching movies or playing games.
