That’s completely fair. Not every mod for the steam deck is for everyone.
The reason it isn’t available in the EU, yet, is that it isn’t CE certified.
For me: I want to do a shell swap, upgrade the SSD, and change out the buttons and thumb sticks. I may as well upgrade the screen at the same time. I was initially looking at the deck HD screen, but that mod seems to be in a really bad place since they shut down their email servers, and customer support is non-existent even on their discord server. Then I saw this and decided that it was worth the $40 more than it would be to buy just a replacement screen from iFixit. I have pressure damage on my LCD screen and I want to keep this particular piece of machinery as long as possible.
I’ve had my 512gb LCD since January of 2023 and it still has 100% battery health.
