Hoped for a more powerful APU, for this new iteration. It would be a deciding factor to purchase the unit.

Nice ans all if you do not have a SD yet, but i will happily stick with my 64 gig model until the SD2 appears, which will no doubt come with oled and more power out the box when it appears in a few years.

Seems a solid upgrade but i have an hard time with modern devices that don`t use HD as their minimum display option.

720p is HD, and this is 800p. Ultimately, what actually matters is pixel density at a normal sitting distance, rather than just pixel count. The Deck's PPI is in the lower 200s, which is good for something that you would typically hold a little closer than arm's length on a 7.4 inch display. It's not great, but it's perfectly fine when battery life matters more than fidelity.

Correct, i mean FHD. And i understand chasing battery life but i still struggle to accept HD resolution nowadays, specially after trying the Asus ROG Ally. Not that it matters that much in the end because i´m not interested in this kind of "consoles", but still...
