Is the anti-glare screen worth it?
Does the eMMC version allow installing an NVMe drive?
The price difference between the 256GB NVMe version and the 512GB version is more than the cost of a 1TB NVMe drive.
Edit: Ah wait, just realised it's the stubby 2230 NVMe drives, the ones that are much more rare and like half the length of the long boyes.
Still, the storage is annoying. The difference betwee PCIe 3.0 and PCIe 4.0 is massive, and there's been another leap with PCIe 5.0.
The eMMC one does support installing an NVMe drive, and from what I've seen the Deck can't really support more than PCIe 3.0 speeds. If you find a good deal on a PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 drive it will still work but there's no reason to spend extra on a newer drive.
