    Avoid the OLED model (due to the danger of burn-in) and get it. It’s a great device for portable gaming, both for games running directly on it and emulation up to and including Switch. It’s fantastic for rediscovering games in your library. Just be aware that the slick user interface gets replaced by bog-standard (and extremely unpleasant to use on the small display) Linux clunkiness the moment you need to tweak anything outside of Steam and games.

      This is terrible advice. The OLED model is better across the board. The risk of burn-in is also wildly overstated.

      The only reason to get the original model would be price.

      Don’t get me wrong, I have an original and it’s great. I don’t consider the OLED model enough of an upgrade to justify the extra cost but I wouldn’t think twice if I was getting my first.
