I got mine a little over a month ago. It’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed a device as much as I’m enjoying the Steam Deck. It’s perfect for a busy dad that doesn’t have time to park in front of a console or PC to enjoy gaming.
Bought it January this year, and I'm still so in love with it. The amount of games I'm able to finish and all those sneaky gaming sessions I did. Made me genuinely love video games again. One of the best items I've bought in my life; it's up there with ergonomic office chair and a good bed lol
I'm so jealous of the OLED owners, I was one of the people that waited in a queue for months for the original deck. I use my Steam Deck everyday and I wish I would have held off on the OLED for a better experience when I do have time for games.
@@JalapenoPrime lol I feel that I literally saved up and got the lcd for my birthday present for myself and then literally a month later they announced the oled version 😂 I tried contacting valve to do a swap and pay the difference but they didn’t want to do it lmao
@djacexanderring6319 damn man that sucks lol At least I got to use my deck for a year before I had buyers remorse lol At this point I'm probably just going to wait for the steam deck 2 OLED edition 😂
5:35 - I think this removable liner is only in the top model (1TB) decks - if you check the feature comparison it shows "carry case with removable liner" vs just "carry case"
I want that case, but I don't want the 1tb model because of that linen on the OLED screen that makes it lose quality on colors.... what to do what to do...
Brother, great video. I have had the Deck for 2 years, 2 different versions, and this is definitely one of the best videos I have seen for new users. Good work.
There are so many tips for new owners out there but this is by far the best. Actual useful info instead of the obvious stuff everyone knows or googles. Thanks! Can’t wait for mine to arrive
you can also use the (...) button for shortcuts that use the steam button. like when you had to use both hands on the left side of the device to hold steam button and press the joystick to change contrast, you can just hole the (...) button and press up or down on the joystick. much more convenient when you're holding the device with both hands!
Valve is the GOAT gaming company. Excellent development catalog, an extremely customer first businesses model for Steam, and now one of the best gaming devices ever. My 5-10 year old selves would have been blown away by this handheld. It's convinced me to skip the PS5 and only upgrade when my PS4 can't even turn on. The OLED's battery, screen, customization, and ease of use are all incredible and has allowed me to play RPGs and games like Sekiro, Cuphead, Risk of Rain, etc in small increments throughout the day where I couldn't have played prior. If the new PS handheld isn't very good I'll just get my son the latest version of the Steamdeck at the end of the decade.
Great video I had mine for few years. You said you can remove the velcro from case and take a smaller one out. Mine don't have velcro or a smaller one. Did valve change the case over the years and the older ones you can't do that? Everything else you said worked for me though.
Hey I’ve been using windows on steam deck for quite a few months but recently I got a problem on windows The problem is that whenever I try to run *any* game I get a huuuuge amount of lag even in the games I used to run very smoothly and the cpu usage goes extremely high . Now fortunately the thing worth mentioning is that I don’t have the same problem while playing games on the steam os . But I really need windows to run like it used to be . Do u guys have any idea about how I can fix this problem on windows?
I bought a cheap one when the older models were on sale, it works great, the screen is big enough for me but the battery life is not very good. I have to charge it after 2 hours and I'm not even playing really demanding games. Also I ran out of story pretty quickly.
4:55 If you click the steam button under the trackpad while in a game and scroll down to the bottom you can exit the game from there. Personally I just save my game and exit to the main menu, then exit the game the way I just described before choosing another game. Or if the game has the option just exit to desktop. Basically the same way you'd do it on PC
@@Bobbypin711 do you mean game pass games or something else? Sadly you can't do game pass games and would need to stream them if you pick the steam deck. I will tell you, I have all 3, legion go, ally x , and steam deck and I love the deck the most
For games from other stores, use Heroic launcher in desktop mode. Also Apex is a very bad example, because it is no longer running on linux, due to EA going a*****t about anti cheat.
you did too many steps to exit a game. its a menu option when you hit the steam button . also the yellow symbol for compatibility doesn't mean it doesn't play well... it means there are some minor issues. and you can just click the Learn More button next to it to see the issues. its usually just because text appears small.
I got it 5 days ago and honestly I am not enjoying it. It freezes a lot, I’ve downloaded games that are compatible with steam deck and they don’t work, audio often comes muffled…. I’m thinking honestly about returning it and sticking with my ps5

I just got the 512gb LCD one on sale for Black Friday and I’m totally excited for it.
How much it was
i got a used 1 terabyte version for 200 yesterday :)
The first tip is surprising to me. I have the it deck for 2 years now. Thank you
Literally! I didn’t even know we could do this!
doesn't work... Steamdeck is linux, iphone is ios
I just ordered my steam deck on friday, i went with the 1tb oled model. This will be my first foray into PC gaming so im really excited for it
Like if you recently got your steam deck aswell and are totally in love with it...
i bought it yesterday now i need to wait :D
Got my oled 2-3 weeks ago and I haven’t had a day I haven’t touched it yet 😂😂

I can confirm my 512 oled is NOT removable.
Yes sir it is only for the 1tb OLED model
I want that case, but I don't want the 1tb model because of that linen on the OLED screen that makes it lose quality on colors.... what to do what to do...
@Ifalvarado buy a aftermarket case then I guess. Might find a 1tb case for sell

Im getting a white steam deck today. Im so excited to join pc gaming.

god the white oled looks so good, couldnt say it was worth it since they will be coming out with one in a year or two and my lcd still looks good
Just got my stream deck for my birthday, and man what a helpful video. Thank you 🙏🏼

Nice video! I never knew the white one had a white case too. That looks incredible.
woke up at 4am to order mine because my steam balance was taking forever to be available and the limited one was sold out 😐
I purposely got the black instead of white, white will look dirty faster
Awesome video! Just subscribed to your channel!!
Really informative video. Thank you.
awesome tips!. Completely unrelated, but what phone case is that? it looks sick!.

Do u guys have any idea about how I can fix this problem on windows?
debating if i should buy cheap on or top end on.
I bought a cheap one when the older models were on sale, it works great, the screen is big enough for me but the battery life is not very good. I have to charge it after 2 hours and I'm not even playing really demanding games. Also I ran out of story pretty quickly.
Started with an LCD deck, upgraded to OLED and it's been nearly 18 months now and I didn't know about phone pairing for Spotify!
The more I see it, the more I like the white steam deck even though I already have the OLED special edition.
Sounds like someone is going to guilt trip themselves into getting one 🤣
@edmfuturedisco3485 not at all. Can't afford it
OLED special edition is so much cooler tho.... just my opinion ofc
@sweetcheey agreed
@@JLary71377could always trade and pay the difference
Didn't see a link for the 3d printed power adapter can someone help me find it.

Just FYI, only the special edition Decks have the extra internal case; the standard Decks do not.
Great video 🔥
Robert Kurwica XD Jebłem :D
I’m about to get a steam deck for Christmas :333
Even on the white version, they never wrote "Deck" instead of "•••".😩
It’s called a “hamburger button”
Must be intentional?
I can't find the link to cloud gaming Xbox link 😢
stl for the charging cord holder model?? that cord wrap design is much better than the one i have for my oled.
So it's just a white steam deck oled no new thing's?
Link to your 3d print pls
That white joint is fire with the gray buttons.. although i already have a steam deckand an rog ally i want this
Hey I was wondering if I should buy a steam deck or rag ally I wanted to be able to download my owned Xbox games
If your main goal is Xbox games, go ally as it has windows installed.
@ but do you think I can make it so in the steam deck I’m able to download Xbox games
@@Bobbypin711 do you mean game pass games or something else? Sadly you can't do game pass games and would need to stream them if you pick the steam deck. I will tell you, I have all 3, legion go, ally x , and steam deck and I love the deck the most
@@GrimAbstract idk how to explain it but like hack the system to be able to download Xbox owned game
@@Bobbypin711 you could dual boot windows on the deck if you would like, but that kind of defeats the purpose of steam os
Pretty sure the normal carrying case (not the white one) doesnt have the removable peice

I can click on the gold bar notification!? Thank you!
4:51 any button works for me on boot screen
If you got the first gen steam deck the case won’t come apart I destroyed mine trying 😫
nice buddy
I got one for christmas
"How's it going everyone?" Sorry, everyone isn't here, there's just me. ;)
Was this supposed to be funny? Lol
STEAM DECK AS A WHITE MODEL!

That’s not normal. Maybe it was damaged they offer returns and exchanges.
Wait a 2 in one case is wild i had no idea!!!!
@@wyntermonique what’s a 2 in one case?
Its 3 year old device that still has the issue of bricking randomly.
Is there a battery saving mode on steam deck, like on laptops or smartphones, that limits battery power by, say, 80%?
