And I don't need to watch previews to know stuff about the Steam Deck. I just googled it. With some games it can last longer, up to 8 hours, but with most games, especially more demanding games it's closer to the lower end at 2 hours, which is short.

But more "demanding games" aren't "most games", when you have a library of compatible games which spans over 20 years.

I don't want to play the newest AAA games with many compromises (compared to my desktop PC with a much much faster GPU). Sure, I'll try some of them out to see how the Deck can handle it, but that's not my main focus.

I'm more interested into playing and replaying older stuff on it (6th gen, 7th gen + early 8th gen), for example the Mass Effect Trilogy, the Tomb Raider games from 2006 - 2013, Portal 1 + 2, the Prince of Persia games, Psychonauts, the Batman Arkham games, Fallout 3 - 4, Morrowind, Oblivion, Heavy Rain, Metal Gear Rising, Dead Space, Mirro's Edge, some older Assassin's Creed Games... They should have a decent battery life.

And of course lots of newer indie stuff and visual novels in my backlog which ain't more demanding either: Hades, Hollow Knight, Owlboy, Nekopara, The Great Attorney, Clannad, Muv-Luv, Disco Elysium, A Hat in Time, Path of Exile, Guacamelee 2, Superhot MCD, the South Park games, a lot of LEGO games... They should have a decent battery life, too.
