Honestly I think it’s probably too soon for the kind of significant performance increase Valve is wanting for the Steam Deck 2. Not to mention that the OLED deck just came out. That said, even if these chips don’t make it to a Deck 2 I’m sure we’ll see them in competing devices.

I’m guessing we’ll get a shorter lifespan, maybe 4 years.
I think if there are substantial increases in performance and efficiency then yes, they’ll have to, especially for the latter. That’s something home consoles don’t have to concern themselves with.
