Versatility is the name of the handheld game; even though SteamOS is Linux-based, Valve&#8217;s Proton compatibility layer ensures games made for Windows work on Steam Deck, so development studios don&#8217;t also have to worry about creating a Linux port.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, SteamOS&#8217; desktop mode on Valve&#8217;s own handheld affords plenty of room to tinker and customise your device. This means that even on the Steam Deck itself, you&#8217;re not locked into only playing on Steam and can install competitor clients to your heart&#8217;s content. For another example, downloads over desktop mode were also how many turned their Steam Decks into stream decks\u2014<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/handheld-gaming-pcs\/hallelujah-nvidia-will-now-take-care-of-the-fiddly-geforce-now-set-up-on-steam-deck-for-you\/\" target=\"_blank\">inelegantly to begin with<\/a>, though dedicated apps like <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/hardware\/dedicated-Nvidia-Geforce-now-app-on-steam-decks-and-mixed-reality-headsets\/\" target=\"_blank\">Nvidia&#8217;s GeForce Now make game streaming even breezier<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For these reasons <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/steam-deck-review\/\" target=\"_blank\">and more<\/a>, we still rate Valve&#8217;s original handheld.
