supply challenges

The Steam Deck OLED is facing stock challenges due to rising RAM and SSD prices linked to increased demand from AI data centers. Valve has announced that the Steam Deck OLED may be intermittently out of stock in some regions due to memory and storage shortages. While the Steam Deck has previously experienced supply issues, availability had stabilized until now. In the U.S., all variants are sold out, while the UK has stock of all models and Germany has limited availability of the 1TB Steam Deck OLED. The 256GB Steam Deck LCD is no longer in production. Valve has not increased prices for existing Steam Deck models despite the stock issues.
