Same! I love the steamdeck and think it’s almost perfect. So I’ll just wait for the next one to upgrade. I’d probably just upgrade to show support for the project.
The Go S is basically the OneXPlayer F1 (a.k.a the "OneXFly"). I've also noticed that sales of the F1 series had occured frequently and they no longer seem to promote it now that the F1 Pro is out for a while. I can only guess the two companies are having a de facto handoff, trading the market share by swapping the roles of their primary devices.

But firstly, I’m happy to see Linux growing.

It's Valve so I'm calling it now. There will be a Steam Deck 2. It wil be awesome.
There will be no Steam Deck 3. The market will take over and Valve will lose interest after the innovation is finished.

After Steam Deck 2, there will be Steam Deck 2 Episode 1.

I can see valve pulling out once steamos/ linux has become a major OS. That’s kind of their goal it seems.

New Go's won't have detachable controllers? That's unfortunate. I use mine like a tablet. There's no other small Linux-capable tablet that I know of.
edit: actually onexplayer makes similar ones.

Detachable controllers are one of the good points of the switch as well. Definitely think that idea should spread.

Ah ok (:
But they made the bottom chin bigger for some reason? The old go is symmetric.
Also I don't like OLED

Read that the battery life of the Go isn't remarkable. How is it used as a tablet?

Around 10 hours of light web browsing on quiet mode.
