I am not often satisfied with purchases but I am really glad I got a steamdeck after the first price drop.

I paid full price for my original 512gb. Best purchase I’ve ever made. I love the damn thing.

You do realize it’s incredibly easy to upgrade the storage right?

I know I won’t regret it later, but in a few days I’ll have my first dream deck, even if it’s just a refurbished one. I’m somewhat regretting the purchase now, but it’s too late.

Thanks for sharing this!

I usually have sticker shock and a little buyer’s remorse after making a big purchase, but I’ve never once felt that with my Steam Deck (except that interim time when it was processing/shipping). I hope you feel that way, too.

If you divide out the number of entertainment hours you get, it will be worth it over time. I have probably 2,000 hours on mine. Insanely cheap vs. other forms of entertainment especially considering I already owned many of the games.

Why are you regretting the purchase now? If you have any questions about the Deck and what it can do, I would be happy to answer!

More of a sticker shock and buyers remorse thing more than anything. Even though I have more than enough money, I kinda felt like I was spending too much on a single purchase. Absolutely nothing wrong with the deck itself, just a me thing.

Bought the 512 LCD on original launch and then the special edition OLED 1tb. Worth every penny.

Same here! SteamDeckHQ started with that 512GB LCD, and I still have it! 100% worth the upgrade, I love the OLED screen so much.

I’ve been waiting for these bad boys to be back in stock so I could get the 64gb model super cheap. I don’t need a steam deck, I have a good rig, but I really wanted one for on the go. Thanks for giving the heads up.

The SSD is super easy to replace if you ever feel like 64gb is too small.

Keep in mind the 64GB is eMMC internal storage while the others (256,512) are NVMe SSD.

eMMC is considered more of an outdated storage option. You’ll probably stick a microSD in (if you only have 64GB) so maybe it’s a moot point.
