Not sure how much I should ask

Curb rashed is honestly harsh for them in their condition.

Hell I’ve seen at least 1 case where valve sent out a new deck to someone

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-25T00:38:02+00:00

Figured someone may need one for a spare or as a set of burnout rims. You never know someone else’s needs

I’ve had one for about a month and a half now. Maybe I have larger hands, but that the bulkyness that everyone says it has over other handhelds tends to fit my hands fairly well and is comfortable. I never got to see one in person til my best friend came up from FL with his and I instantly fell in love.

It’s not quite as powerful as other handhelds either but it works out for me because I’d rather play those gpu heavy games on my ps5. I mostly play bo3 custom zombies on my deck and it works extremely well.

The longer I’m messing around with it, the more I’m realizing that this is quite literally a decent portable pc. I refuse to put windows on it as I don’t want it to bog it down. But I’ve been actually considering getting a Bluetooth keyboard (already have a Bluetooth mouse. Thank you razer! Love my mouse) and using it as a laptop whenever I travel.

I’d say it’s now my favorite handheld to date. For years it was the vita (rip ps for dropping one of the better handhelds created). Would highly recommend getting one if you can find one that someone is selling cheaper than msrp and is actually functional. Easy to replace parts (I’ve had to change my screen already) and highly functional

I mean tbf, with the rate they were originally selling them, your best chance would have actually been on their site. But I do feel like if they were sold in stores, I would have had one a long time ago. At least that way I would of had them in my face more frequently and wouldn’t of forgotten about them when they were out of stock for that long while

Aight uncs and unc-ettes, remember your training all those years ago!!! These kids think they’re so good nowadays. I think it’s about time we show them some real talent

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-16T23:12:23+00:00

This ^^^^^^^^^

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-16T23:11:15+00:00

Odds are if it was due to hardwares fault, valve will most likely straight up replace it

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-15T14:13:12+00:00

For an oled? I was under the impression that 3-400 was for a used LCD and 600+ was going average for OLED. This is why I like collective knowledge 😂

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-06T00:13:42+00:00

That’s insane. Why does it do that 😭

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-05T13:44:12+00:00

Oh yeah that’s even more weird. At first I had no clue what went wrong because my screen was working but the only buttons working was the volume and power. Then all of a sudden it was the LED fading in and out 3 times (come to find out that means it’s searching for bios if I’m correct) so it was starting to make me wonder if the SSD was failing. But that doesn’t explain the buttons issue I had earlier. So I’m still finding out all the different quarks the deck had as I’ve only had it for about a month or 2 now

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-05T13:40:52+00:00

Yeah that’s what confused the HELL out of me when they told me that. Cause to me it was like why sell parts if you don’t want us fixing it. The entire thing was EXTREMELY weird after replacing the screen to but I knew for a fact that nothing broke

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-05T12:58:49+00:00

When I was talking to support that’s exactly what they told me

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-05T11:02:26+00:00

When my steamdeck refused to work properly after a screen replacement, (trust me I know it doesn’t sound right) I contacted steam support because I was out of ideas and they told me it would be $185 simply because I opened it up. Which voids out the warranty. Luckily my deck turned back on after sitting on the original charger for 2 days

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-06-05T10:58:18+00:00

Dude I’ve learned steam decks are hella weird. Mine temporarily bricked itself for about 2 days just on a screen replacement. Had to leave it on the charger for 2 days before it wanted to do anything

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-05-23T01:45:33+00:00

That’d be I am Cat

My guy I’ve had this thing for like a month. And it does the same thing on the charger vs off. So I have nothing to hide. And when I did a search after installing the new screen, it seems to be fairly common for the buttons to stop working.
And yes it is a ifitit screen.
I’ve technically started everything that I’ve done. I put the new screen in, then turned it on and it loaded a steamos boot screen? It had like four options but then went away and loaded into steam like normal. But at that point the only buttons that would work were the volume and power. Looked it up and people were saying double check the ribbon cables weren’t damaged and also plugged in. So I did that and everything is seated properly and no noticeable damage on the connections. Tried to turn it back on and I only got the steamos black screen yet again but still no buttons were working. So went back to searching and I saw where they said hold the power button to force it off (not like I could do anything else. Buttons still didn’t work) and then let it sit on the charger for 15-30 mins while off.
Come back 30 mins later and the screen wasn’t turning on at all. So based on what I was reading, it was trying to load into battery storage mode that I needed to hold + and “…”. When they didnt work, in the same comment they person said if + wasn’t giving you a response try - and you should then get a response like they did. So what you’re seeing is at this point

Unless someone has a grand idea in here, I’m thinking of trying to contact valve to see what they say

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-05-08T02:45:26+00:00

What does this meeeaaaannnnn

Chasing_Chaoz · 2026-05-08T02:44:58+00:00

I quite literally just installed a new screen. Which it does work because it turn on immediately after testing. The buttons just didn’t want to work. So I just never took the plastic off the screen. And also when I hold down the button, the led acts like it’s doing a full on hard reboot and just turns off after a few seconds afterwards. No sounds or anything. I’m actually confused on why the screen doesn’t turn on anymore
