Never realised that quite a few third party mods for the deck are available - such as a transparent chassis, colourful buttons, and even an aftermarket APU cooler.

Linus pretty much pimps the heck out of the refurbished deck in this video.

The main downsides shown (aside from the difficult chassis swap) were the aftermarket chassis joystick tolerances being a bit tight, and the new HD screen increasing system power consumption by at least 10W - while also bringing a noticeable performance penalty, with ~37 FPS on the HD screen vs 60 FPS on the standard deck screen when playing F1

Didn't he respond to a lot of those things though?

With a lot of corporate double speak. Until I see change the trust is broken

Understandable, but the response he gave that wasn't ultra sanitised PR also got a bunch of shit so it's natural that they would go PR

The response was covered in the second video and just made things worse. Lying and trying to gaslight people isn't a good response.
