oh… that’s super cool!! Thanks. I appreciate trivia facts like that.

Cool… Let me know which route actually takes care of manufacturing defects.
Reddit posts or steam support.

I agree but since we dont have actual stats, these posts just provide fearmongering.

I dont think your perspective is accurate.

Nice write up!! Appreciate your time, efforts and knowledge.

Great answer… thank you.

I had a browser entry for each streaming service that opens full screen automatically when you launch them.

But on new deck, I just use 1 browser with those sites pinned.

Had Blizzard launcher and games on old deck, and a bunch of EA games like Need for Speed… but never really utilized them so dont really foresee any non-steam games.

I use desktop mode a lot, but would not add those applications as games.

No… you are reading like reports that round down to zero when you look at the install base.

The hardware failure rate for all PCs is somewhere between 0.5% and 3% dead on arrival, with lower priced hardware having higher failure rates, with first run rates being closer to 5%.

I think steam deck rates are much lower than that… more so valve is really great and takes care of the issues via support. So people arent stuck with defects. That is what is really important.

You cant really take the defects out of complex electronics manufacturing.

Let’s say (for maths) that every user in the sub owns a deck and the failure rate is 1%. That would equate to 5260 members with deck issues.
