    I have a gaming laptop that I bought for 1000 bucks and I can stream to anywhere from it. With the controller and my cell phone I can play whatever games I want. Yeah I’ll pass with Steam deck.

      Yeah and even though the Steam Deck seems as good as a handheld can be, my phone/iPad stream games with a lot less heat and noise. If you have a gaming rig already it seems like the logical choice to stream.

      My issue with the gaming laptop is the massive brick needed to charge. My laptop has a 4070 and requires a 280w barrel jack charger to fully power it. The brick is about the same size as my steam deck lol since I travel for work I have to carry that laptop. Even better I use the same charger for my laptop and steam deck.

      Does your gaming laptop have a large brick? How do you manage if so?
