Steam Deck OLED
All the things you love about Steam Deck, now with an OLED screen, better battery life, faster Wi-Fi, and more.
- Brighter Colors, Blacker Blacks – Steam Deck’s HDR OLED display is designed from the ground up for gaming, with striking contrast, brilliant clarity, and a larger picture. With more colors, pure blacks, and amazing motion rendition, you’ll see your games in a new light.
- More Time to Play – Steam Deck OLED has 30 to 50 percent more battery life. We fit a bigger battery into the case, and the OLED display draws less power. Add in an updated, more efficient AMD APU and you have way more time to play your favorites.
- Faster Downloads – Steam Deck OLED comes with Wi-Fi 6E, offering increased bandwidth and lower latency. This means faster downloads (up to three times faster!) and stable online play.
- Lighter, Cooler – Thanks to a bigger fan and updated thermals, Steam Deck OLED runs cooler. It weighs 30g, or approximately five percent lighter than the LCD model, due to the screen.
Additionally, the 64 gigabyte, 256 gigabyte, and 512 gigabyte Steam Deck LCD models will be available at a reduced price while supplies last.
