You have to run it for thousands of hours, while not playing games, to make it happen.

But this also accelerates the potential wear, just at a much more realistic rate.

You'll definitely have users gaming on the thing for 8+ hours every day, so I don't see much value in that. Like I said, you might as well just wait for users to report their experiences.

Yes, that's exactly my point. Definitely some but not many.

Like I said, you might as well just wait for users to report their experiences.

Report them to whom, exactly? Not everyone is going to hop onto the internet to publicly report their issues. How are you going to account for the conditions? What if there's nothing to report?

Not everyone is going to hop onto the internet to publicly report their issues.

But enough people are. People are talking about every small thing they did, what happened, whatever.

Also, with all the different plugins or stats available on this thing to track everything, you can probably create a pretty detailed breakdown of what someone did with their Steam Deck.
