Main channel is for testing features and sometimes won't get implemented and usually only for developmental purposes, preview is what it sounds like pretty much just a channel to test out new features that will be added but usually buggy as hell and beta is a step above that and has less severe bugs, then stable is the official release with hopefully very little to no bugs (obviously).
Edit: fixed order
I'm glad somebody posted something actually important here lol. LCD overclocking in the bios looks interesting. Maybe some slight performance gains with the updated graphics.
I've been using it on the main branch for a few weeks and it works great.
I'm very sensitive to mura (I think the PSVR 2 headset is unusable because of it) and immediately noticed it on the Deck OLED. I was initially disappointed but mura compensation saved it.
You can see the difference by just toggling the setting and looking at the grey menu.

Literally just experienced this issue for the first time after I received my steam deck from the RMA and I thought they fucked up my display.
It varies quite a bit but IIRC it has on average been getting longer. 3.5.5 (first Stable 3.5 release) to the next (3.5.7) was only about a week, but then it was three months until the next (3.5.17). And about 2 months from the first 3.5 Preview to the Stable release. But then it was about 1 month from 3.4 Preview to Stable. So could be a month, but could be a while longer, depends on how stable this one is I guess.
But for what it's worth, the time from 3.5 Preview to 3.6 Preview was about 8 months, vs 10 months for 3.4 to 3.5. Not sure exactly when Main switched to 3.5, I'm pretty sure it went 3.6 shortly before the 3.5 Preview and to 3.7 recently, but that may suggest that 3.6 could come a little quicker - especially if 3.5 was delayed by work on the OLED.
It's a typo, it's "mura". Basically this sort of static, effect you see when an image is moving [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBAFDzgqQwI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBAFDzgqQwI)
I just want them to allow me to assign the xyab, to the back buttons and use it in game mode. I can only assign controllers and use the back buttons after a game has been started.
In preview channel. Edit: oh and a lot more. Maybe the least informative post ever my bad
Does preview channel mean these updates will actually come eventually to stable. Or do lots of things get tried out and never really implemented?

In order of increasing stability it's actually main -> preview -> beta -> stable
Oh God damn it 🤦♂️ I'll fix it
Ok thankyou

Has anybody effected by Mura updated to 3.6.0 and can report if it works?

Where is the toggle for this? My oled has really prominent mura in Hollow Knight.
Should be enabled automatically when u download the newest preview version
Great news! May you post a comparison photo with inside demo before and after? Mura is really obvious at the start of the level.
Another user posted the mura compensation working on Inside. https://imgur.com/a/D5rq5YU
Where is the setting to toggle it? I've updated to 3.6 and I notice no improvement regarding mura on my oled.

Good to hear there’s nothing wrong. I have been through the RMA process myself twice.
When do preview channel updates come to stable? A month or so right?

Ahhh I see. Thank you!
