Hey guys....just a feeler. I am probably gonna sell my 512gb steam deck with the anti glare screen. I have the original box. Case. Screen wipe. Charger. Also have an unused skin that can be put on. I have a jsaux transparent blue backplate which aids in cooling. The original backplate is also there too. It is in perfect shape.

Anyone might be interested in this? I guess id ask $350 plus ship. Everything is like new. Smoke free home. Just seeing if this is something someone might want here before i try to sell it elsewhere. :)

glws great device for anyone that doesn't have one. i got the og 64gb myself i thought to upgrade to oled but wish they had waited until sd2 with newer zen arch and rdna 3 or 4
 
Yea....im a sucker. I travel abroad and the upgrades seemed worth it to me. Even though processing/gpu powerwise, there wont be really a difference.
 
Looks like ill be selling it here very soon. Ill post pictures and whatnot. It is the top of the line LCD model with 512gb. Also there was a notice that valve had changed suppliers for storage and the earlier steam decks had a faster PCIe Gen 3 x4 nvme ssd. As they released more they used a x2 (two lane) variant nvme ssd. I guess during testing there wasn't any performance difference but mine is an earlier model with the x4 nvme faster drive.

Nice! Did you already order the OLED or were you waiting to sell the LCD? I have the 256gb one, been really tempted to get an OLED... It's been my favorite thing to bring when I travel.
 
When I was debating selling it, i was debating to get the oled version but wasnt sold on it yet. I saw the special edition 1tb version and well, yea that sold me lol. So after I got the OLED is when I decided to sell. Since you use it while travelling, Ill give you my 2 cents on it because I also use this when I travel.

Here's My thoughts:
-It runs cooler than the lcd model.
-The .4 inches is a nice small increase in Screen size
-The oled color and black levels are better
- battery life is definitely better. Id play Lethal Company on the LCD and just after 1 hour and 10 min or so it was dead. I can go a solid 2 and a half hours on the oled.
-performance is almost identical. I did some less than perfect tests, but I i got about 1-3 frames per second better on the OLED. Ill assume because of the faster RAM. Not really worth mentioning anything else speed wise, both load quickly and petform similarly.

So, its tempting to do the upgrade for sure. Im glad I upgraded but the original LCD is still a damn solid device. :)
