So for some time now i have been taking steam deck with me for my travels but i have always turned it off instead of putting it to sleep so battery wouldnt drop too quickly but i never checked if it would actually drop too quickly when i put it to sleep… Soo what now? Should i still power it down or would it be fine if i put it to sleep? Also forgot to add, battery precentage matters to me since i dont have always access to charger

    I usually just put it in sleep mode which is fine when I’m playing regularly, but if I don’t play for more than a week or so then I’ll find out the battery has died.

    Sleep if you want to pause mid-game, power off if you’re organised enough to know you won’t be playing for a few days!
