Comment on Valve hikes Steam Deck prices by more than 40%, blaming rising costs
tux7350@lemmy.world 2 days agoMy issue with the gaming laptop is the massive brick needed to charge. My laptop has a 4070 and requires a 280w barrel jack charger to fully power it. The brick is about the same size as my steam deck lol since I travel for work I have to carry that laptop. Even better I use the same charger for my laptop and steam deck.
Does your gaming laptop have a large brick? How do you manage if so?
I have a slim q charger for my laptop and it’s about the size of two phones stacked on top of each other. The factory brick is pretty slim too so I never really cared. It fit well in the bottom of my backpack.
Also many modern high end machines come with smaller GaN chargers. It’s mostly the cheaper models that come with the classic brick.

I mainly leave it in my office. I don’t take it with me. I stream it through my phone and tablet if I move around. Kinda like a desktop that can move around if needed.
