I have both, got a Steam Deck a week ago. It’s a beast compared to Switch.
Feels like a much more quality device and with it being so open you can do anything you like on the software side, plus some of the HW seems much easier to replace / repair.
If I had to choose between a Steam Deck and Switch now, I’d go with Steam Deck without a second thought. You can even emulate all of Switch’s catalogue on the SD.
Yeah, I have both as well.
After the Steam Deck arrived I don't think I've even picked my switch up again.
