Steam Deck OLED announced
New OLED screen. New APU. And lots of small hardware improvements.

Would this be worth it next to a PS5 and Series S?
I’m wondering if I could 1) buy games cheaper on Steam this way, and 2) play this while traveling (which I do a lot, meaning weekly flights and hotel stays in other countries for work),
Yes yes and yes
I mean not really. You're gonna have to double buy games if you want to play on the big screen and handheld.
By "buy games cheaper" do you mean compared to their console versions, or utilizing steam sales and/or shady key sites? For the former: no, not usually. The latter: yes, definitely.
And it's an amazing travel device. Used it for most of its first year while I was in hotel rooms for work and I used it more than my laptop when playing games where controllers are fine
I have a PS5 and was looking at remote play devices. This OLED steam deck seems like a pretty ideal candidate, in my opinion. 720p is kind of a downer, but I think an OLED deck would make up for it in other ways.
