Steam Deck (LCD 64GB)

The 64 GB Steam Deck was the original "king of value." It utilized eMMC storage (slower than the NVMe SSDs in its larger siblings) but retained the exact same processing power with its custom AMD APU. Its black chassis, signature haptic trackpads, and 7-inch LCD screen (800p) at 60Hz made it iconic. It was the gateway for millions of players into Valve's handheld ecosystem. In 2026, its legacy lives on primarily in the "modding" community, who purchase these budget units to customize them with transparent shells and storage upgrades of up to 2 TB.
