Valve gave us the strongest wording yet that a Steam Deck 2 is actually real, although it's still clearly going to be some time away before there's enough of an upgrade.
I don’t know - you’d need at least 4 arm cores, and 4 x86. Current deck uses just 4 x86, so squeezing in more would require waiting for some fabrication improvement to keep power draw and cost sane
Not necessarily. Steam Deck SoC is CPU+GPU out of which latter is probably the bigger part. Also, on the chip there are all the memory, USB, Pcie, audio and other controllers.
Adding 4 arm cores definetly wouldn’t double the chip size

That just seems like at least double the cost.
