Honestly it'd help if they switched to a touch friendly desktop interface like gnome. Yep! Its definitely a nice way to have your game on the go.

Sadly I notice that's the 2 types of use cases. Commuter vs traveler. I take public transport often and I'd care too much about the steam deck being taken. Back when it was just me traveling to a place I'd be at for a while, like my fiancee's it was nice.

Size means I need to be near an outlet usually, since ideally the goal is play bit more demanding games. Again, I feel it's still too early for it to be the multitool it can be.
