You can just buy an aftermarket anti-glare screen. They are cheap.
You can change the SSD by yourself but you’ll lose waranty. There’s a noticeable speed difference between the eMMC and NVMe versions. There’s no noticeable speed difference between the NVMe versions.
IMHO if can afford it and have a few technical skills buy the little one and install one of these. You might even want to wrap it in one these (there’s a real leather option too) or these or replace the joysticks with these (can’t get drift and have a much smaller deadzone).
Is the anti-glare screen worth it?
Does the eMMC version allow installing an NVMe drive?
The price difference between the 256GB NVMe version and the 512GB version is more than the cost of a 1TB NVMe drive.
Edit: Ah wait, just realised it’s the stubby 2230 NVMe drives, the ones that are much more rare and like half the length of the long boyes.
Still, the storage is annoying. The difference betwee PCIe 3.0 and PCIe 4.0 is massive, and there’s been another leap with PCIe 5.0.
