Agreed, for me. But if I played all retro, might be a different story.

1080p is a terrible way to “upgrade” your Steam Deck.

How so?
Were you expecting 1440p for a handheld? The steam deck can’t handle resolutions that are too high already anyway

Normal screen is close to 720. Boosting up to 1080 has little benefit at this size and negatively affects performance and battery.

Oh, he meant it in the opposite way of what I thought he did. Then yeah, I agree

No, the steam dk can berely handle full HD on most games that would benefit from it.

Really depends on the content you consume. A lot of indie games and old games could benefit from 1080p. Especially with small text. And for more power hungry games you can always choose 720p

Oh yeah. Small text is a fair point, and one that I hadn’t considered.
I’m just trying to get a decent framerate for my 3D platformers and horror games and the Deck isn’t exactly impressing me at 800p 😭
