Its more than just OLED too. People are probably going to be pissed that this came out of the blue if they recently bought a Steam Deck.
The other little change that makes QoL much better is the longer cable on the charger. 2.5m cable vs 1.5m. I don't sit near my outlets and I don't want to bother with an extension cord.
Lack of VRR is a disappointment
Ohhhh here comes the episodic release of steam deck! Steam deck Episode 1 Chapter 1
Yet an Ally is only $50 more and much more powerful with 120hz. It already has a good LCD screen whereas the Deck had an inexcusably terrible one
Better speakers
Better haptics
Smaller bezels
Better touchscreen
100nits peak brightness on HDR
Upgraded thumbsticks
Upgraded trackpads
Upgraded case
Longer charging cable
Bigger fan
Threaded screws so you can take the back off as often as you like
Easier screen replacement
No issue, the nvme's gonna heat up like anything given the size of the deck, cooling looks pretty weak
