Valve Says It's 'Hard at Work' on Steam Deck 2, but There's Still No Release Window

I had an itch for something more powerful but I'm actually pretty content with my oled SD. I was tempted by the lego2 but not for 3k lol. I'll just make do with pc streaming until the SD 2 launches, even if that is a few years. I trust ol valve they've done right by me

Valve Says It Has a 'Pretty Good Idea' of What Steam Deck 2 Is Going to Be, Explains Why It's Holding Off for Now

I fully agree with them. The SteamDeck as it is right now is fine. If they release another SteamDeck, the difference between it and the original two should be night and day. There should be absolutely no drawbacks to upgrading and it should be a no-brainer (provided you have the money for it). If yo

I open steam 5 years later and my csgo cases are worth 150€ now!

I came back after 7 years and had a bunch of stuff I could sell. Used it to buy a Steam Deck. Best purchase I think. Turning virtual items into hardware was pretty neat.

Steam Hardware - Steam Controller: It's almost here!

I’m gonna hold off until the Steam Machine releases so I can get them in a bundle. SD is my only device atm so I’m in no rush. But it looks great, the price isn’t good but I personally think it’s fairly expected given the state of things and the quality it seems to display. I can’t be considered a f

PSA: Don't sleep on Luna game streaming if you already pay for Amazon Prime

You got me. It's me, Jeff Bezos. I need even more billions by tapping into the Steam Deck enthusiast market. Nah man, I'm just super psyched after 6 hours of working through Great Circle, a game I previously had no ability to play - now suddenly at high quality 60fps - at no extra cost to me. I want

ASUS ROG Xbox Ally with Ryzen Z2A drops to $499

It's smart for ASUS to position closer to Steam Deck price - it performs similarly and there's a gap in the market with Steam Deck being out of stock most places now. I dare them to go even lower, let's see $399!!

OS distribution in Steam from March 2024 to March 2026

What I'm going to say may be controversial in this sub, but I don't see the Steam Machine making a big difference here, the Steam Deck, even though not produced for retailers like other devices, had the advantage of being portable, which is arguably more appealing to the masses (and easier to justif

Steam Deck sales still going strong over three years later

I got my SteamDeck late, so more powerful PC handhelds were already available. I still went with the SD because of the seamless Steam integration, Valve's long-term support, the large user base (easy to get help), sizable aftermarket and third party accessories, and Valve's tremendous contributions
