Yep, the functional sleep is the singular feature that makes the Steam Deck stand out, in my opinion. Not that it isn't a nice piece of hardware otherwise, don't get me wrong, but it's not unique in any other respect. The fact that you can use it like you would a Switch or something is the thing that sets it apart, and none of these upstart competitors seem to understand that.
