I was wondering how many of you out there who ordered the OLED model on release already got their Deck? Mine is stuck at “packaged items” for a couple of days and I am starting to get anxious when I get it.
My LE arrived today but it was DOA. Faulty power circuit, never even turned on once :(
Oof that is just the worst D:
My OG Deck was also stuck at “packaged” for a few days, I wouldn’t worry about it. They probably have tons of these things to ship and are a bit backed up.
Mine has been like that since last week. I’m not concerned but a little disappointed there’s no sign of it this week.
Got mine about 3 hours ago~
It’s the Limited Edition, and while most of what the reviews said was spot on, it seems either QAM and Steam buttons on the LE are a bit different or something, because they’re ever so slightly raised above the body of the deck.

Congrats, and how it is?

Same for me in the Midwest. I am LOVING it!!
UK - ordered within 25 minutes of going up (spent 25 minutes TRYING to checkout), it’s due to arrive today
UK here as well, ordered at precisely 18:22 according to Steam Purchase history. I’m still on “Packaged Items”/“Shipping Soon” and have been since last week. Starting to suck now that I’m seeing people who ordered after me getting theirs.
Hahaha, I have just checked and I also ordered it 22 minutes after they started accepting orders and mine says that it is shipped but when I check with the carrier, it says that only the information for the shipping has been sent online but they don’t have it with them, hence probably won’t get it this weekend which sucks.
So I guess that’s the unlucky 22 minute mark.
Haha, I wonder if there’s something about those 22mins. Sounds like you’re further along than me still! Does suck doesn’t it, I was hoping to get to enjoy it over the weekend.
Yes, Same here, I was looking to give it a try but alas, probably will be next week with all this craze around black Friday
Mine arrived this morning before 9am. Tested it this afternoon and all looks good!
Nice! Enjoy.
It’s supposedly arriving today according to the tracking number.
I got mine last saturday. It worked perfectly!
Ordered my LE about 20 min after they went on sale and received it on Tuesday (in the US). Loving it so far.
Ordered it the same, 1TB though. Mine is estimated for the following Tuesday. Took them forever to get it to the carrier, which I got info on yesterday.
I’m jealous of y’all. Mine just hit shipped today, and won’t arrive until next Tuesday thanks to the holiday weekend. Got it 41 minutes after launch too. Not LE though, so maybe they prioritized those?
I just got notification that they have created a shipping label but the device is still not yet handed over to the forwarder. Mine is the 512Gb model and I am based in Europe.
How’s that OLED? I’m debating whether I should get one even though I have the 512GB lcd Deck. Any complaints from this newer version?
I upgraded to an OLED from an OG 512. I definitely don’t think it was a “must have” upgrade, but I was never really bothered by the LCD.
The only thing I have approaching a complaint, which is more of a “huh I didn’t actually think about that”, is that on the LE the charging LED shows through the transparent case from the front. I think I can probably come up with some way to fix that (or at least make it much dimmer from the front).
Yeah I had the exact same thought - “huh, transparent case and charging led” - but I hear they’re going to come out with an update to adjust the intensity of it, so that may help that.
I also upgraded from OG 512 - personally love the OLED so far. Screen is really nice, battery life will be great to have on my business trips, and the clickiness of the Steam and … buttons is a definite improvement. Do you need any of these things? No… but they are really nice things.

Oh, nice. I’m also wondering if I can’t paint part of the light pipe so it doesn’t shine outward (as much?). Or print some sort of replacement with opaque sides. We’ll see if I ever decide I’m bothered enough by it to actually do that.

Yep, totally agreed. Though, I finally started one of my 4 HDR games (Death Stranding) and if I knew it was going to make this much difference, I might have been clamoring for it sooner. Though, I don’t know if DS is hamming it up/designed more for HDR at the expense of the quality without it.
Got mine yesterday. The ‘normal’ one because Europe. Nonetheless extremely happy with it. Also delivered within 5 working days instead of the 6 to 10 as listed on Steam
Lucky you, I am also in Europe and since 2 days my deck is listed as shipped even though when I check the carrier it says that only the request has been filled out but they didn’t receive it.
My forwarder is GLS maybe that’s the problem
We’re in the same boat then… stay strong buddy!
You too, man.
Mine was also delivered by GLS and delayed for one day. Keep hope! It will arrive soon
Yes, the status just got updated and the expected delivery is 28.11.2023, bummer, 4 days more to wait. Mind you I ordered it 22 minutes after and kind of expected to get it before.
And? Is it still scheduled for tomorrow?
Yes, it still says it will be delivered tomorrow between 12 and 16, but what worries me more is that there have been no tracking updates since 24.11. The last update is from 24.11 at 15:33 that the parcel left the parcel centre. And since then nothing.
I bought a 2Tb SSD and hopefully will have it too so that I can upgrade the 512Gb -> 2Tb. Bought WD SN740 for 160€ which is I guess a good price.
Mine arrived today. But I’m on vacation and won’t get back for a week. My roommate brought it inside, so I’ll have it when I’m back home.
Got my LE just after noon yesterday in Minneapolis with an order that went through @ 29 minutes.
Absolutely loving it so far. It might be all in my head but I swear it feels noticeably lighter and it’s definitely way quieter, but I never did figure out if my OG deck had the loud or quiet fan.
It is 5% lighter, whether that is noticeable can vary between users
Yes, don’t know how much you can feel those 30 grams to be honest. I think it is mostly a mental feeling like a placebo effect. But on the other hand it is kind of amazing they did manage to lower the weight by also increasing the size of the battery.
I can feel it! My hands would get sore playing too long, will see if that happens now
Got mine just now. Amazing smooth experience. Moved SD card over, did some updates and just resume playing, could not be more butter
Yes, I have ordered mine 22 minutes after the window opened and am still waiting. The device is sent already but it is with GLS and apparently they will need 6 days to transport it 800km, absolutely ridiculous, not to mention that their tracking sucks big time.
