I haven’t had any issues last time when I brought my OLED Steam Deck into France, and typically I only bring carry-on. Then again, I also really don’t mind traveling light.

This is a really good point, thank you!

 

I was wondering, is there any reason why I should buy the Steam Deck abroad in France instead of in my home of Canada?

So I (Canadian) am surprising my friend (from France) with a Steam Deck in October when I go visit them. It will just be the cheaper LCD version, since they won’t care about (or notice) the difference in quality.

Aside from buying adapters for the plug, I literally can’t think of a reason why I should buy it directly in Europe as opposed to getting it in Canada. It would be a lot easier since I can have it delivered to my address, don’t need a specific day and time for it to be delivered, don’t have to deal with any issues of ordering things in a foreign country (sometimes you need to have a local address to order and have things delivered, etc)

That said, I wanted to still check and see if there’s something I’m forgetting or just outright unaware of. I know there’s specific power requirements for the Steam Deck, but mine worked just fine with an adapter when I was last there in January.

Montreal is far, FAR from good public transit. As soon as you’re outside of the core central area of the city, a 20 minute drive turns to a 1 or 1.5 hour trip. It takes me 8 minutes to drive to work, 12 to bike, and 30 to take the bus.

Even if you’re in the city, certain routes take 45 minutes via the subway instead of just 20 by car (parking is still a nightmare though.)

I’ve only ever taken public transit in Montreal, Toronto, New York City, and Paris. Paris is pretty damn decent, and I didn’t have any incidents in Toronto. NYC was pretty confusing sometimes. Montreal is absolutely abysmal though compared to the other 3.

Of course, that’s just my opinion, you’d much rather hear from people who live these other cities.

Fun fact, if you copy something a person does, you’re mocking them. But if you reword what they’re saying and throw it back to them, you’re intellectually deepening the conversation 🧠🧠🧠
