The Steam Deck is forever evolving and becoming better with age as more and more patches are released by Valve. But something a lot of people miss out on is the amount of improvements that are made by community-driven apps and quality-of-life updates.

These are some of my favorite updates we've seen to date for the Steam Deck and Steam Deck OLED.

The SD isn't the best PC handheld specs wise, but the community around it and the software support from Valve makes it the best option for most.

[danielkoch]

STOP STOP STOP 0:45 the Steam Deck is literally the only PC handheld that's worth it right now. The windows based ones are horrible according to software and longevity, since the Steam Deck is based on Linux, which is Open Source. So if Valve suddenly stops to support it, the Community can support it themselfs, that's why its so important that it's Open Source. If you want something with more power, just buy a PC, but not a bullshit handheld which is not the Steam Deck... to the love of the community, for your experience and your wallet...

1st step: play Aperture Desk Job
2nd step: play your favorite game that's played with a controller
3rd step: play an RTS game with the trackpad
4th step: install Decky Loader and search for nice plugins

My steam deck is coming tomorrow! I am excited!

Official Valve Dock also supports VRR for external displays, which is why its the best dock option for the Steam Deck.

Australians who are still waiting for the decks release locally 😂

Having a descriptive timeline would be better.
"App One" and "App Two" do not provide clarity.

Been playing video games since the days of Nintendo Family Computer, Super Nintendo, PS1, PS2.. Then I stopped playing. After watching the early reviews of the Steamdeck, I got really excited because of Emudeck. I bought mine January 2023, and since then, I never stop playing video games. Steamdeck is the game changer.. I know it'll be a while but Can't wait for Steamdeck 2!

Just Ordered the limited white steam deck edition and can’t wait to get my hands on those!!! Literally sold my lcd 512gb SD last 3 months ago and I regret selling that stuff but! Now we back again! Getting a even much better SD 😁😁

I have had my OLED for over 2 weeks and i frankly am obsessed. It is already become my favourite new handheld gaming device beating out the switch, it feels so good in my hands which is a good thing because I have some pretty big hands and just is such a good pick up play device.

While i certainly didnt need the Steam Deck im very glad i bought it

[boreos]

I really appreciate how this is mostly free apps and not a bunch of sponsored paid items. Great Video

[shawn_mb]

Just ordered the OLED Steam Deck! This video dropped at the perfect time, thank you! :)

I just got my Steam Deck today. I needed this video. I think the first games I'm gonna play are the BioShock series, Mad Mad, and the Telltale anthology.

[kelico]

Saving for when/ if I get a steam deck, may update if I remember

[Marcelouk]

Managed to get the white one on Monday.. cannot wait for it to arrive here in the uk over the next few days, it's my first deck so very excited :)

[InitialDL]

Got my Steam Deck last year in March, but nice to get an updated video on the essentials. Thanks!

[missmelodyx]

just ordered my steam deck oled over the weekend, in transit to final parcel centre, not so patiently waiting lol ty for the video!

[chiqui]

Just received my white steam deck and I am super excited. Trying to get it set up and all so I can test it out.

[nikkifromthemitten]

I bought the Rog Ally X and Steamdeck (just got it yesterday) to compare and see which one I prefer. The only thing I'm concerned about is the unsupported games on Steamdeck. I don't want to be limited to what I can play.
