Don't you gotta buy Switch accessories too? Like kinda the same things, if you need them... a dock, extra controllers, memory card, etc? But the deck, you can use existing controllers (from other consoles, or a mouse and keyboard you might have lying around) and buy a 3rd party dock that works just as well.
I have a switch and I loved it for some games, but now that I have a steamdeck, it's the most I've played games in years. Comparing accessories is moot imo, and can be cheaper on a deck... and the deck is just way more versatile overall. The Switch's benefit is proprietary Nintendo games and that doesn't tip the scales enough for me to buy a 2nd gen version. I'll choose the versatility of the deck any day, it got me playing more games again
