You got it crooked. 60hz to 90hz is a lot more than 1-2 frames. “A brighter screen” okay guess you don’t know what HDR is and have never seen the difference between LED and OLED. “A bit more battery” got me from 90 minutes of gaming to over 3 hours. For someone who actually uses the thing constantly, it’s huge. But continue to be ignorant because I doubt what I wrote will change that.
If you count 60 to 90hz as increased performance then sure you get more frames. I've used an oled switch and it does look good but it's definitely nothing game changing.
Steamdeck oled has a few nice to haves and nothing more. The release of the steamdeck changed the game for handheld gaming. The release of the steamdeck oled changes nothing. We've seen oleds on the switch, we've seen handhelds with good battery life and we've seen handhelds with high refresh rate monitors.
