On July 16, the game platform Steam released its first handheld game console, the AMD processor, which starts at $399, or about 2600 yuan.
Steam Deck is equipped with 15W TDP AMD processor, 4-core 8-thread Zen 2 CPU, core frequency 2.4-3.5GHz, 8-core RDNA 2 GPU, frequency 1.0-1.6GHz. 16GB LPDDR5 memory is used. The 64GB entry-level version is eMMC flash memory (PCIe Gen 2x1), and the rest are NVMe SSDs (PCIe Gen 3 x4), which support micro SD card expansion.
The 7-inch 1280x800 touch screen, 40Wh battery, claims 7-8 hours of web browsing, 4 hours of portal 2 play, and 5-6 hours of 30 FPS play. Steam Deck has a special quick pause/resume function, which can pause and resume the game at any time.
In addition to the rocker, ABXY keys, L1/L2, R1/R2 shoulder keys, there are L4/L5, R4/R5 keys on the back of the machine, and there are symmetrical touch panels, dual speakers, and dual microphones on both sides. There is a full function Type-C interface on the top.
Steam Deck runs the SteamOS 3.0 system based on Arch Linux. With the Proton compatibility layer, games on the Windows platform can run on SteamOS 3.0 without porting. In addition, Steam officially said that it is a PC, and users can install other operating systems by themselves.
Steam Deck price:
64GB version is 399 dollars, about 2600 yuan
256GB version 529 dollars, about 3400 yuan
512GB version 649 dollars, about 4200 yuan
Although the entry version is an eMMC flash memory, it is only 50 dollars more expensive than the OLED version of Switch. Of course, in front of the switch, any machine will be particularly cost-effective.
The first batch of Steam Deck machines will be listed in the United States, Canada, the European Union and the United Kingdom in December, and other regions will wait until 2022.
