…as spotted by Brad Lynch and TVKilledMi on X/Twitter, this model does support 6GHz triple-band Wi-Fi — suggesting that it has either Wi-Fi 6E or Wi-Fi 7. The original Steam Deck doesn’t even have Wi-Fi 6.

    A home console only slightly more powerful than the Deck (as reported) would be a flop. It would be less powerful than the PS4. People will be plugging this into 4k 120hz TVs.

    I’d be very surprised if it was a home console unless they have some kind of magic upscaling they’ve built into Proton.

      If they manage to put in a 7600 class GPU and sell the whole thing for under $500, it would be a winner. You could build a PC like that, so given the economies of scale, that should be doable.

        Some 32" TVs are 4k, 99% of 43"+ TVs are 4k. Most people can afford them because they are very cheap. Usually 90Hz, mostly 100Hz, sometimes 120 or 150Hz
