Would Linux ever get better quality duplex audio over Bluetooth like Android apparently can?
A lot of really exciting changes here.
The updates to arch Linux base/graphics drivers will hopefully include mesa 26, which is looking like one of the most significant performance boosts we'll see the deck get. It massively helps with ray tracing performance, so games like Doom the Dark Ages, Indiana Jones, all UE5 games, etc are expected to get significant performance boosts. Basically, the games that the deck currently struggles with the most are expected to benefit the most from this.
Improved support for the screencasts in Game Mode (e.g. OBS/Discord)
Cool
Re-re-enable Bluetooth Wake for Steam Deck LCD
The saga continues
LCD Bios Added "Memory Power Down" setup option Preliminary support for hibernation
This sounds cool, I've wondered about why the deck doesn't have hibernation.
OLED Bios Charging LED now changes color when charge limit is reached, rather than only at 100%
Been waiting for this, ever since they added charge limits.
Overall very exciting update, doesn't seem available for my deck on the beta update channel yet, but I'm excited to get it and check the mesa version.

Add a setting to allow using Bluetooth headset mics (Bluetooth playback quality will be worse while capture is active
finally!
