*** The Official Steam Deck Thread ***

Added my card to steam for much faster checkout, so hopefully it’ll just be add to basket and press pay.

Did the same. After topping up £225 it failed through paypal to add any more. Couldnt add via Visa either
Called the bank and my card wasnt blocked, tried adding by Visa credit instead of Paypal and it eventually worked after authentication through the banking app.
Too many times i've tried to buy something at launch and payment auth has fallen over.

Kinda tempted, my biggest annoyance with the OG was the battery life, if that's improved and I can actually get the better life it would be decent

No way I'm going the etched glass with oled, I noticed it was hazy even on the videos on youtube, my OLED switch, TV, and Phone, all gloss and look mint.

I've also added my card but I know for a fact it's going to ask for authorisation via the app, grrrrrrrr.

Same, just hope they do have enough stock and the website doesnt crash at 6pm!

Of course it will!

The thing is though, how many people are really waiting to grab the OLED version, surely if you was desperate for a device like this you already own one? will be very interesting to see what transpires in a few hours time

Same, should be a good test run to see what the demand for the refresh one is like for when the real Deck 2 is out.

I'm going to place my bets that both models will be sold out within 30mins. The upgrade to OLED is a massive improvement, combined that with the extra runtime on battery. It's a very desirable upgrade.

I feel as though you are seriously underestimating FOMO here.

Im going to say 3-5 mins for 512GB to be sold out 5-10 mins for 1TB

i can vouch for the power of FOMO.. i was refreshing like mad when the orginal deck came out got my order in when it arrived used it sparingly..

now here we are again

but tbh i plan to use this one a lot more the orginal screen did put me off abit and things in my life are different now

 

[manic111]

The ridiculous thing is that I'm not desperate for one, but also I know that if I miss out on the first drop having convinced myself I want one I'll be so sad!

Eyes down

Are we hyped lads??

I am hyped that a refurbished 64GB will be available for £249 so I get a unit that is tested and has 1 year warranty

 

[TNA]

Get your F5's ready!

 

[Raiden85]

Get your F5's ready!

Already at it in case it goes live early

 

[Alexrose1uk]

Anyone else sitting on the steam store hammering the refresh button?
1TB OLED is on my radar for the wife, she loves hers.

 

[2StepSteve]

Absolutely smashing F5
