Limited Edition White Steam Deck OLED: A Global Launch November 18th

Valve Announces Limited Edition White Steam Deck OLED

Valve has unveiled a new limited edition of the Steam Deck OLED, called the Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White. This model will be available in limited quantities starting November 18, 2024. Here are the key details:

• Availability: The Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White will go on sale on Steam on November 18, 2024, at 3 PM PT / 6 PM ET.
• Price: The device will cost $679 USD, which is $20 more than the standard 1 TB OLED model.
• Specifications: This limited edition version has the same specs as the existing 1 TB OLED model, including a 7.4-inch HDR OLED display, 90Hz refresh rate, and improved touch screen latency. It also features a 50Whr battery, which provides better battery life—around 30-50% longer than the previous model[1][3][5].
• Design and Accessories: The device comes in a new white and grey color scheme, including an exclusive white carrying case and a white microfiber cleaning cloth[1][4][5].
• Global Availability: The Limited Edition White Steam Deck OLED will be available in all regions where the Steam Deck is currently sold, including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and South Korea[1][3][5].
• Order Limitations: Valve is limiting orders to one unit per account, and eligible accounts must have made a purchase on Steam before November 2024 to be eligible to buy the device. This is aimed at preventing scalping[1][2][5].

This Limited Edition White Steam Deck OLED is part of Valve’s ongoing experimentation with different hardware aesthetics for the Steam Deck, following the success of the smoky translucent edition released last year[2][4]. The response to this new color variant will help inform future decisions about potential new color options for the Steam Deck.
