Just received my Steam Deck OLED. The screen looks so good.

  90hz screen with 180hz polling is what my phone uses as well, it’s nice that the deck has now caught up to that.

  Also remember to leave your original deck on when downloading games on the new one so it can transfer them locally, which should be faster. There’s a setting for that, but I think it’s on by default.

    You can’t transfer games from the deck, unfortunately.

      This seems to be implemented in the Steam Deck client update from November 16th

      Haven’t tried it myself though.

      Why I’m just doing a straight swap by throwing my current deck SSD into the new one XD

      It works, but deck needs to be on. I just pulled a Grim Dawn install from my deck to my desktop PC on Tuesday.

    It tries to download locally but it’s faster to download it from steam CDN 🫣

  Not trying to be “that guy” but it’s *polling rate. I remember because it’s the rate at which the system asks for (or gets, practically speaking it doesn’t matter for this analogy if it’s asking or being told) updates about the mouse/pointer position from the pointing device (mouse, touchscreen, whathaveyou). Like polling a voter for their opinion.

  lol, not sure what to make of looking at a picture of an OLED screen on a device with a non-OLED screen.

    Pull out your phone, it’s most likely OLED :P

    It is OLED. My monitors are reflecting which highlights the black boarders around it. It looks incredible in a dim/dark room.

  I guess my eyes are bad but I can never tell the difference between lcd and oled. I have an oled switch and a normal one and the only way I can tell the difference is screen size and the kickstand.

    try a black screen with white text like in the image, the different will be night and day

    It stands out more in the dark, where black pixels are actually off. Things that appear on screen look like they’re just foaling in a black void.

    The blacks are pitch black because they aren’t illuminated.

  A picture doesn’t justify, the fact that I don’t see edge bleeding makes me want to cry a little though
