The user experience is atrocious though.

There are a few games I can't play on my steam deck yet but I'd much rather have its great, functional ui over those few games that I could just play on pc instead.

Oh definitely. I would not say atrocious (seen far worse, like every time I have to interact with the weird stuff SAP or Oracle put out as software), but it's not good for a semi-controller-semi-touchscreen device.

Definitely usable OTOH.

Personally I would still go for a Steam Deck right now if I had to pick one, but more competition is good, and right now I'm personally not looking for a portable gaming PC anyways as my Switch has enough games I still need to play.
