I was on the edge buying the thing and told myself that if I use it 50 hours it's a reasonable purchase. Now I'm sporting closer to 200h within one year I could not be happier.

Did you have any (self made) goals when buying Steam Deck? Did you achieve those? Or did you buy it and now it's collecting dust? I'm curious

My SO bought me a deck this past summer sale. So far he has used it for way more hours than I have lmao

Altogether, I wanted the deck so that I didn't have to buy a dedicated desktop for gaming. I just have an old Lenovo for school that keeps up with some of my gaming, but not all of it. I really enjoy the portability of the deck. Its heavy and I'm weak and holding it up while I'm lying in bed makes my arms tired quickly, so I bought an articulated tripod tablet holder. Now I can game for so long without having an entire laptop in bed or on the couch.
