It’ll arrive this November, in the identical major configurations, Valve sells elsewhere: a 256GB configuration of the unique LCD mannequin, or 512GB and 1TB variations of the newer OLED mannequin, which additionally include longer battery life, a greater display screen and extra. They’ll price $649, $899, and $1,049, respectively.
(Though the OLED mannequin prices $250 greater than the unique, it has so many essential adjustments that I'd personally advocate it over the LCD model to anybody who can afford it.)
Whereas even the OLED mannequin may have a full 12 months till it arrives in Australia, there's no present indication that Valve will launch a quicker, higher model any time quickly – and no transportable machine working Home windows can presently match it for transportable ease. utilization, although some have a efficiency edge, and the Asus ROG Ally X can beat it with AAA gaming battery life as nicely.
That mentioned, Valve may additionally carry its SteamOS to rival handhelds just like the Asus ROG Ally X earlier than too many months cross, and I used to be very impressed working the Bazzite model of the SteamOS interface on my Ally X evaluate unit (though it has its wrinkles).
Should you're at PAX Australia in Melbourne, you may check out the Steam Deck on the Valve sales space immediately.
