  I’ll give it a try, thanks :)

  The Steam Deck works so well because the screen is only 720p, and even then people have complained about low framerates on some games. Scaling it up to 4k for a modern TV would drop the performance even more.

  It looks like a great handheld, but I think trying to use it as a console wouldn’t work.

  The Steak Link app doesn’t recognise controllers reliably on Android. I’ve got a few controllers that work in other games, are recognised as being connected in Steam Link, but just don’t work. Connecting them with a cable lets them work straight away.

  I wouldn’t risk it in anything expensive. Get a card reader that leaves the micro SD sticking out a bit, and try accessing it with that. At least then if it jams, it’s only the cheap reader that you’ve lost.
