    Hey everyone! After spending more time with the Steam Deck, I've noticed the colors seem richer on the screen, and I think adding a glossy screen protector might have helped reduce the anti-glare effect. It's definitely improved the look for me.

    • @DABS139
      @DABS139 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yup! I did the same thing. I have the 1TB model with etched screen and ended up putting a screen protector immediately but you can see some of the color’s richness comes back when you add a screen protector. I don’t think I’d want to use my Steam Deck with no screen protector anyways lol

  • @dementedp
    @dementedp หลายเดือนก่อน +7

    I think the etched screen issue has gotten out of hand. People make it sound worse than it actually is, and that makes other buyers ‘see’ the issues without being necessarily sure about them. It’s just like a placebo “hate” effect for something you wouldn’t even notice by yourself in the first place.

    Nice vid, I ordered this OLED 1TB a couple of days ago & I'm looking forward to it being delivered. I've been putting off the purchase as I use a gaming PC for my gaming needs, I do hope I can give this Steam Deck justice.

  • @Invid72
    @Invid72 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

    Play a game with HDR and you'll be blown away. Something like Ori and the Will of the Wisps really shows off the OLED in its best light (no pun intended). Also, the reduced colour vibrance is only in high ambient light conditions, where with the glossy you'd be dealing with reflections instead. I much prefer the anti glare to distracting reflections, but YMMV.

      The dock from Valve is a good choice, of course. There are plenty options on Amazon, but I would make sure it can charge the deck while in use (the one from Valve does this).

  • @rinzu1

    Hi, some models of OLED steam deck suffer from really bad muira, although it is somewhat rare to get a OLED panel with really bad muira, still good to know. That might also hinder the visuals in comparison to the LCD steam deck. One of the big features of the OLED deck is the bigger battery + 6nm upgrade efficiency. Around 40-50% more bettery life when compared to the LCD model. At 6w I can play PSP games for around 9 hours on average.
    Also have you tried other games with inky blacks? Limbo comes to mind as the game is mostly black/grey/white. I don't know much about Stray but some games put a weird grey/green filter in post processing that increase the black levels, might have had a part with what you experienced.
    Also also, try out "Ori and The Will of Wisps" and "Tetris Effect" on the OLED. The HDR implementation in these games is insane.
    Cheers.

    • @techwithashley
      @techwithashley  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the info, I'll look into other games that have a true black, which a lot of games I've been playing recently don't. After a little more time, I can see where things look richer in color, and putting a glossy screen protector did help as well. Maybe it's not as "rich" as the 512GB considering the material used, but for now, ignorance is bliss, and I'm happy.

    You wouldn’t think much of it but the screen of an etched glass screen is very fuzzy and blurry compared to the glossy screen it’s a huge difference. That’s why you don’t see a difference in the quality of the image because that etched glass screen completely ruins the quality of the image on screen.

    Another review of SD i like it, but let me ask why not a different device but with (hudge) better Z1 Extreme ? i know there is Win11 but you can install Steam OS - Chimera OS and also then Z1 Extreme has better performance and was stronger to bigger Game :)

      Steam Deck has better screen, better battery, better controls, better support from manufacturer. Unless you desperately need to play modern games at slightly better (still not good) fps while losing out on mobility and the above benefits, then go for ROG.
