Yeah I'll probably get a Samsung evo 512 too. £59.99 right now but sounds like we could expect a better deal tomorrow?
i'm hoping so
the sandisk 256gb has been up and down in price over the past week so perhaps we may see the 512gb come down in price
i do prefer samsung though already bought the 512gb evo select earlier this year for a different gadget got it for 44.99 including a 5 quid discount voucher from amazon so i'd bite for anything sub 50
not sure what the difference is bertween evo select and evo plus is it just an exclusive branding for amazon speeds look the same or similar

Yeah I have read that about the Amazon exclusive version too, for what it's worth there doesn't seem to be a difference if any at all

How long after you purchased it before you get an email notification?
I had a slight problem when i was buying it, at the very last SUBMIT button, the page hung....when i refreshed now it says i have purchased it.
However, I have no email confirmation nor it shows up here.

Made myself an aluminium stand for charging the deck instead of having it in the case, open and on a table

Check your account alerts, see if you can reload the 'complete your purchase' pop up. Failing that contact support. Good luckHow long after you purchased it before you get an email notification?

Can anyone recommend either a keyboard / mouse bluetooth combo that is compatible with the steam deck or a good USB-C > USB port expander. First thing my GF wants installed are two games that require going into desktop mode and I'm about to lose the head trying this without a keyboard/mouse to navigate desktop mode / linux apps.

It failed...trying again. If it fails again I'll try another card.

Failed again....guess I will have to call the bank tomorrow, line is closed now.

Finally worked through Paypal, which just as well because there was a £20 offer on Amex when spend £100.
Samsung pro plus 512gb for 62.99, is that a good deal. I haven’t bought a SD card in years.

Hmmm tempted, it is cheap. How much of a difference will the Pro plus be though with the extra speed?

Apparently, from a quick search, it’s like 1 second faster loading tomb raider as an example.
Part of me knows it’s cheaper to get 2 x 512g but then breaking into 2 cards means some dead space will inevitably not used and I might end up losing one…decisions…
Ps the 512G Samsung Evo is £35…that’s the one to get for 512G…
Right getting the Samsung Evo then, done!
