I was pretty skeptical about the original Switch but bought it on a whim after being laid off.

It quickly became one of my favorite gaming consoles. The ability to play anywhere didn’t seem like a big deal until I could do it.

I have zero interest in being tied to a single spot like the traditional console experience now.

The Switch was the first device where i saw how well the mobile + docked system worked and it was my favorite device until I got a Steam Deck. The Deck is killer IMO because it takes the same form factor of the Switch, gives you more power and no restrictions on games.

It's nowhere near the 'same form factor'. I'm taking switch to me in almost every trip and I have taken steam deck once and had regret it deeply (too bulky, too noisy, hot and barely lasts a couple of hours).
