Should I Go for the Antiglare Screen on My Steam Deck?

-

I’ve had some experiences with the Steam Deck before, where I bought the antiglare model but had to return it due to a fault after just two days. It was a bummer, especially since I was about to go on a six-week vacation. Now, seven months later, I’m interested in trying it out again, but I’m torn on whether it’s worth the extra €110 for the antiglare glass model. I have a high-end gaming PC that can handle ultra settings at 1440p, and I also have a PS5. I’m mainly looking to use the Steam Deck for less demanding games. Sorry for the long read, but I’m really unsure right now!

Honestly, I’ve been leaning towards glossy screens myself. The antiglare tends to mute the colors quite a bit, which is a downside for me. I went with the 512GB OLED and I’ve loved it! No regrets there.

So besides the antiglare and extra storage, the regular and antiglare models are pretty much the same, right?
