Does anyone use a screen protector on this? If so any recommendations?

Go for it! No regrets here

After an initial duff one, I found these to be good. Not on Amazon now, but can be found

Well worth it at that price! To be fair I picked one up at full price end of last summer (back in the days of the £4 deposit) and its was still worth it.

For anyone interested, D4 runs quite well on the Deck too Some minor bugs with audio that need to be worked around though

A friend of mine brought one a couple of weeks ago and it only took 3 working days to arrive.

I ordered one too on the same day. Mine is currently waiting for the courier to collect it. I'm hopeful it will be here tomorrow.

 

[MarkeR]

Same here, all packaged and waiting for coourier collection. I'm guessing they will be super busy because of the discount.

So I've my 64gb on the way and I obviously want to upgrade the SSD.

I can't see them on OCUK and the sabrent one on the rainforest won't deliver to my location (damn brexit)

Any other options? I'm hesitant to order off ebay / from china

I've heard these can run games fine with an SD card?

They can, I have a 64GB Deck with a 512GB Samsung Evo Plus. I'll swap an SSD in at some point but no issues with storage currently (don't play many AAA games on it).

I've just done a quick web search and it seems that it's just a rebadged Samsung Evo Plus card which Amazon have the sole rights to, steal at £40 as I paid £60 for mines back when I got it!

Mine has shipped today, bought late at night on the 16th, considering how busy they must be i'm happy with that.

 

[ci_newman]

Got the shipping notice for my Deck and Dock today too

GLS, apparently

[Edit] Shipping from the Netherlands though, so no idea which UK agent will handle it
