Only reasons I've been passively keeping an eye out is because one, Id like a way to carry it better than a little handle, and two, I'm not totally jazzed by the thick strap compartment in the back, it's not water resistant and I've already had my charger fly out of it just taking it around the house, honestly if I could just have a zipped up door or even a velcro door over that little compartment, I'd be perfectly fine with the stock case.

The problem is the Deckmate is way too expensive. A cheaper, and easier solution I found just sticking a very small bit of heavy duty Velcro (max weight it can hold is 7kg) to the back works perfectly. Doesn't affect thermals, and it's so cheap to do! It holds my Powerbank with no risk of falling, and I can switch it out for a stand or anything external I like.

On the topic of MicroSD-Cards: The SanDisk Ultra recommended in this video isn't the best performance, even considering price, you can get for the Steam Deck. Get a Samsung EVO Select (Amazon-exclusive) or EVO Plus (same, but not Amazon) for about the same price! It's Application Class A2. The Steam Deck can handle A2-class cards, which guarantees 2000 IOPS writing (=random write operations) instead of just 500 IOPS writing on class A1. Mostly while gaming, this isn't very important, because on most games you don't have many random, parallel read/write operations. Where it makes a big difference, is while compressing or extracting packages. This might not seem relevant, but it is, every time you update a game. Steam downloads and updates work by downloading medium size packages and extracting them. On A1 class cards (and unclassified "A0" basically), extracting can be slower than the download itself (bottlenecking overall download speed) plus there is a significantly longer waiting time after the download is at 100% but still considered unfinished. You still might not notice that much. Installing a big game might take a few minutes longer. On daily usage, you get a few updates per day and don't care about a bit of extra waiting time. If you don't touch the Deck for a week or longer, Updates accumulate. Suddenly all the games you have on your 512 GB card need a relatively big update. And now you'll notice the difference. Suddenly there are 1-5 minutes of extra installation time per game which on a 512GB card can accumulate to half an hour. So, if you have the option, get a A2 Card instead. Best thing is: You don't need to pay extra. Samsung EVO cards are A2 and priced competitively to SanDisk Ultra A1 cards.

I want to intersect at 5:28 real quick Running off an SD card compared to an SSD WILL increase load times quite a bit because the SD card will have slower read times which is just a limitation of the card itself. Also, stuttering CAN happen ingame when it loads a lot of data, when for example going into a new area or anytime the game needs to load a new environment into memory. If you dont care about longer initial loadtimes to get you into the game, an SD card is fine, but expect some framedrops related to limited data speed if you game off the card. I myself got the 64gb model and swapped a 1TB SSD in there for steam games, and got a 512GB SD Card for my Emudeck stuff, mostly ROMs I use for emulation, it holds my entire ROM library and I dont care about the load times in these especially because there is truly no difference on lower end consoles like the N64 or PS1 because the original expected data speed on these consoles is lower than what the SD card can provide.

I would like to point out that you should avoid any SD card that is class A1. While the deck can only get 100MB persecond and those cards say they do 130, they neve4 hot those speeds in the wild thus there have been tons of reviews for the Lexar and Sandisk ultra in particular that complain about slow write speeds, with some reporting 20 hr installs of games. The fix seems to be to grab the "Sandisk Extreme" or "Samsung pro select" as they are both A2 and more likely to get anywhere close to saturating the steamdecks read/write limit
