My understanding is that the Steam Deck itself is sold at a loss, so if there is a sale it's likely to be only 10%, like it was last sale
They had higher discounts on higher tier devices last sale, but I think it's more cost effective to just buy the lowest tier and a third party ssd.
It depends on the tier of deck. The lowest tier is sold at a loss, but after than steam decks generate some profit
Yep as my 64gb ssd is filling just from downloading and redownloading vulcan shaders every time an micro sd card is inserted with steam games.
I bought the base model on sale and got a 1TB Samsung SSD off AliExpress and in total it was cheaper than the 512GB model
I'll tell you what you don't have.... White zipper pulls.
