This is the best summary I could come up with:


While other vendors continually push out new handheld pc models, sticking similar internals into different shell designs and gradually bumping up RAM or the Processor, the Steam Deck just keeps selling like hot tasty cakes.

There’s multiple other devices out there now that are in a few ways more powerful than the Steam Deck, but that hasn’t seemed to matter a whole lot to Valve.

Especially since the release of the Steam Deck OLED, which was a pretty huge upgrade, it’s constantly a global top seller for Valve.

When compared with other vendors like GPD, AYANEO, ASUS and all the others, Valve of course have the Steam store to back it up.

Other vendors don’t really have anything like that, so Valve are in a more unique position to stick to one main model.

You only have to look at the new built-in Game Recording feature to see, and the upcoming SteamOS 3.6 that recently moved from Preview to Beta that again brings in some big additions.
