So, to give you a better look at what’s new with these devices, here’s a Steam Deck versus Steam Deck OLED specifications and features comparison table to help you out.

As you can see, the only major hardware change here is the more colorful OLED display and the bigger 50Whr battery. The rest are minor upgrades that result in a more polished console.
There’s the more efficient 6nm chipset with better cooling, albeit should still provide a similar performance but less power-hungry. A faster RAM is also welcome.
Valve also improved the speakers with better bass and improvements on the battery chemistry for better charging speeds: 20% to 80% in only about 45 minutes. Oh, and it’s also lighter and easier to repair thanks to the Torx screws on the back.
The Steam Deck OLED also has refined controls and buttons. The analog stick has new material and shape for better grip and resistance to dust, the post material has been changed for better feel and longevity, the shoulder triggers are more tactile and responsive, and the trackpad has better fidelity and edge detection.
Select markets can get the Steam Deck OLED 512GB and 1TB for USD549 (~Php30,700) and USD649 (~Php36,300), respectively.
