Apart from the obvious performance uplift what improvements are left that you would like to see in a Deck 2?

​

For me there is:

  1. VRR support

  2. Hall Effect sticks

  3. Make the battery easy to replace

  4. Move the SD card slot to other half of shell

  5. Move USB-C port to bottom

  6. Further reduce bezel and increase screen size

  7. Add real haptics

  8. Add Oculink and eGPU support.

​

On the software side I’d like to see:

  1. Improvements to the verification system to better incorporate user reviews and give more detailed feedback on what does and doesn’t work + expected performance
  2. An official way to share game settings, An easy way to install non steam apps from Gamemode
  3. Improve the desktop mode experience.

    Better performance and another USB-C port, that’s pretty much it

    I don’t need it want new stuff added I just want them to polish what’s already there. I wish the screen was nicer and haptics to be better. I have mine disabled because in current state they are distracting more than anything.

    I hated my Switch with a USB C on bottom. It made my life hell when I was playing in bed and had to charge it. (Laying on belly)

    I don’t really see a way to accomplish this, but I’d love it if it were lighter. 670g is amazing for what it is, but for long sessions it’s a lot to hold.

      Can’t tell if joking lmao. USB-C port on bottom means a way better docking experience and no cord drape when you’re holding it.

    I think they need to go through and get a universal control scream for steamdeck …I really dislike needing to create control schemes for games.

    Steam should really focus on hiring folks to design the best touch pad +gamepad hybrid controls.

    Also , need innate gamepass support.

    A way to interact with the desktop features without needing to go into desktop mode.

    I’d rather have a controller with the same controls as the Steam Deck than a Steam Deck 2 right now to be honest.
