It's so fucking wasteful. This whole video is pointless. It's not a $1200 phone advertising drop or scratch resistance--we're well aware it's made with very basic plastic and a normal screen since Valve have been very clear about keeping cost and weight down. If you're worried about the screen in a device like this, get a cover. That's it. We don't need a video showing complete destruction of a hard-to-get device right now, especially when there's global shortages.

Instead he wrecks the top end model which is the one in most demand. He could have just as easily performed all those tests on a 64gb model too. Except the frosted glass...

The plastic construction would worry me on almost any other device but on this one it makes total sense to me. Valve put the money into the hardware components inside rather than the body of the device. Considering the device is a powerhouse in such a great form factor, I am glad they put the $ into the hardware rather than the frame. So many device manufacturers these days go all out on the frame of a device to make it look really high quality, but then cheap out on internal components. I am very glad Valve took the better internals route with the Steam Deck.

Yeah the Switch with its joycon connectors feels much less sturdy and more fragile than this Steam Deck here.

Those joycon thumbsticks are awful to be honest :( I have a Switch btw. so I'm an owner and not biased towards Nintendo.

For reference the Nintendo Switch has anywhere between 291 to 380 nits brightness depending on the model. Complaining about the steam deck's 400 should be more of a criticism of hand-held gaming devices' peak brightness as whole, rather than a device specific thing.

@Strawberry Kitten Usually when you want to be able to see a screen in an area with a lot of ambient light, like outside, you need to increase your screen brightness which drains battery a lot more. Having the anti-glare helps alleviate that a bit by reducing the blinding effect that external lights have on your screen so you don't have to turn up the brightness quite as much.

if you draw a valve on the one you're giving away you will make it a "unique" and raise it's value 100 times. It will be like the Picasso signature on a work of art.

Hi Zack, will you please see what will happen if you push really hard at the centre of the Steam Deck while it's flat on the ground? Or even if you step on it. Like stepping on it while coming down from your bed while forgetting that you left it on the floor last night

Ouch, the damage he puts that deck through is rough. I had to look away more then once.

An ultra-thin screen protector glass is glass and glass needs to be protected 😅 so that's what people are choosing the thicker ones for better protection but then they risking to touch sensitivity.

I may just be slightly disappointed that Zack didn't apply 20 (and counting) layers of screen protectors.

I was thinking: Since the "upgraded" glass is etched, it might be acting like a rasp or file, and not a smooth sheet of glass. The picks might actually be losing material when rubbing up against the glass.

Dang, etched screen really doesn't look worth it. Will need a screen protector to cover it up anyway, Valve shoulda made that optional. Overall painful to watch but informative, plus luckily that deck shouldn't be too hard to repair. Dang three of them, still waiting on my one heh. Good luck to the contest entries.

Yeah i ore-ordered the etched screen one, but now i feel like i should have pre-ordered the cheaper one and use a screen protector instead.

I think the tear down skin would have looked better with the heat pipe and sink but that’s just me I guess.
