I honestly hope so.
A lot of people talk about running smaller indie and old games on their decks, if the translation becomes efficient enough we could have a Steam Deck 2 with serious battery gains!
Comment on Steam Hardware Announcement - (This is wild)

I suspect the Frame, with its x86 to ARM recompilation layer, is a trial balloon for higher-performance ARM hardware in more traditional form factors. More concisely, the Steam Deck 2, when it appears, will be a high-performance ARM device, with similar performance/efficiency characteristics to Apple Silicon MacBooks rather than phones/tablets. Of course, this depends on a vendor producing suitable CPUs.

I can see a Snapdragon X Elite Steam Deck in the future…
