Hi all! I bought a used Steam Deck 2 weeks ago and I am loving it! I am playing Fallout 4 on it and it works amazingly good!

So, what is your choice when you finish playing?

I put the Steam Deck to sleep and the next day the battery was 7 percent lower than before. I am thinking of just shutting it down so it doesn’t drain battery in sleep mode.

  • i’ve been having issues where the device would be unresponsive when waking it up from sleep (either during a game or in desktop mode) and the only option would be a hard shutdown, so i’ve become wary of sleep mode.
    i’m still using it 90% of the time, but i make sure to save my progress beforehand.
