The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- Comes with a carrying case so you can transport it without extra purchases
- 64 GB storage is on the lower end—many games will require external storage or take up most of the built-in space
- Runs full PC games rather than mobile ports, but performance varies depending on the title
As of today, the Valve Steam Deck is overpriced at $979 — versus a $633.44 typical price and a $419 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
