Just keep in mind, that any screen protector will remove every positive aspect of the anti glare etching your 512GB model has and only leave you with the toned down colors of the etching for the antiglare.
That's a bit why I regret getting the 512GB. I mean, the space is neat and I kinda need it, even with a 1TB card, and the screen looks sweet, much like a very high quality IPS gaming monitor (like a Samsung G70A), not a fuzzy mess, but I kinda wonder if I should've gone with the 256 or 64GB versions.
@@andrebrait I am enjoying my 256GB and as for the storage you can also just hotswap the SD cards and get more. And with a nice clip for all your micro SD cards this is actually pretty neat.
@@andrebrait why the hell would you want a screen protector on a normal one let alone 512gb version? Just don't drop it and keep it in its case when it's not being used.
@@emeraldcelestial1058 yeah, that's kinda what I'm doing and what I do with my Switch, but generally I like having screen protectors on because accidents do happen. Not talking about dropping it on the ground.
@@emeraldcelestial1058 The screen protector is for scratches. Not drop protection.
That is the smoothest screen protector installation I have ever seen. I always seem to need to do it over and re-clean at least a few times
My man slapped that thing on like Steph Curry hitting a three point shot
@@samnite3 nice one
@@samnite3 not being rude btw
it's too on the left side tho
@@Burial18 that's my problem with screen protectors is that they aren't perfectly cut to fit.
By time I get mine "after Q3" I look forward to getting the transparent colorful housings ala N64.
There is still a risk of getting fake SD Cards even if you buy the 'official' ones, since Amazon seems to put all of the 'Samsung' cards in a big pile at the warehouse.
So that's why some people are complaining. I try to avoid Amazon nowadays for stuff that might be replicas. I'd get one from Currys or Samsung directly I guess.
How are SD card prices during Black Friday/Cyber Monday?
Yeah commingle inventory is the worst thing amazon could've done. But I guess its less hassle for the workers.
It really sucks but you can ask for a new card if this happens.
Yes, that "sunglasses case" is the little baggy for the power supply. You can tuck it behind that strap on the back of the case.
Mine didn't come with that :(
neither did mine (512 gb model)
Neither did mine 256 model
@@Trigger200284256 don't come with a pouch
@@Slimek meh, no big loss, I wasn’t gonna use it anyway
Great advice as always, straight to the point no fuss. Great presentation.
If you order an sd card on amazon test it as soon as it comes in. It doesn't matter if its from the manufacturer. Amazon puts all of the same product in the same bin for quick shipping and sorting. So you can get a fake card no matter who you order from.
That's why I only order form the western digital site.
The TouchProtect stickers for the trackpads are a must IMO. Gives the trackpads some texture making them a little easier to use, plus can customize the style and colors.
Which brand thanks
Can you recommend a sticker for the trackpads?
Another thing to keep in mind is that the SD card reader on the Deck has limit of 100 MB/s read speed so faster cards won't have better load times, like the sandisk extreme A2 instead of ultra. All you will get is faster write speed for downloading or moving files from the Deck to the card
I wonder if you could achieve faster speeds with an SD card over USB, whether the Deck supports that kind of thing.
@@Dgrif12 With the right cable and card reader? Definitely
I think the A1/A2 rating is about application performance, which is more of random I/O rather than sequential (which falls under the V rating I believe). So an A2 card should still have an advantage because random I/O is affected less than sequential by the interface. Loading games relies more on random I/O than sequential I believe.
Faster writes still seems worth it to me IMO. A lot of what that SD card is going to be used for is probably storing the games I'm not playing at that time.
@@mingyi456 Someone has already tested it, load time difference is literally in milliseconds between sandisk extreme and ultra.
The ONLY THING I keep seeing as a positive on being in the Q2 gang is that we're getting the advantage of letting YOU test all these things out for us first, rather than ending up with drawers full of modern PowerGlove/Sega Activator level bad gadgets.
Thank you for helping us dodge the ones that turn out to be real lemons!
Edit: Spelling (OMG, Sorry!!!)
What? Im Q2 and i got my Deck last week? Whats going on
@@christiand2426 thats literally impossible, you probably got moved to q1 because so many people ended up not buying it
Q2 starts in April and end in June...

Glare from the crystal case matches the glare from the screen protector nicely.
Appreciate the vid, my order date changed from Q1 to Q2 so looking forward to paying for my pre-order soon
Mine get move to after Q3
@@fedricojgarza464 that sucks dude
@@ricksmith4840 it ok months go bye by fast 😊
@@fedricojgarza464 I'm sorry to hear that 😥
Mine was Q2 (NOT AFTER), and I just got moved last week to Q3... Not too happy about that...
Honestly this looks great. The Steam Deck takes out all the guesswork of a good grip with its perfect shape and you can just get a clear simple case to show off the aesthetics of the cool looking device! These are so cheap I'm getting 3 of them and if whenever it starts to look bad I'll use another.
I'm a fan of the matte anti-glare antifingerprint screen protectors
The more I see on the Deck the more I plan to get one.
Then get one
IF you can get one... If you order it now, you will not get it till December or even the start of 2023.... They are that back dated...
Idk what you're talking about, I think the plastic case looks absolutely beautiful of the Steam Deck
that crystal cover is gonna be a hell of a fingerprint magnet
Got the silicone case and love it. What I like is that it has good protection as well as not making the steam deck heavy.
Hopefully the Dbrand case looks incredible, the ones you showed were ok, and they will do the job but I think I want a little aesthetic.
I'm so excited to get mine, eventually!!
TEAM Q2!! TEAM Q2!! TEAM Q2!!
It makes me shiver to see you use the steam deck case without the screen cover it comes with
You can always paint the crystal case to try and get the glare off. It would be a good diy project
you could do amazing effects if you paint it throuth the inside
@@GoTEnjoyerMatt no. But if the case would have to much room for the steam deck. That it can be moved in the case, the paint would come of. And you would have to clean the deck from paint particles.
Edit.
But you could do a thin foil under it
From preventing that. Like cling film and cut the rest what sticks out.
That clear case is pretty cool, it would look awesome painted
That was a really satisfying screen protector application 😁
Hoping for a video for using the Deck as a plain laptop :)
Coming soon. Within the next 2 days for sure
@@ETAPRIME Awesome!
That's the use-case I've got in mind, I'm gonna run PowerPoint, and control my video switcher, mixer, and lighting board for live events.
It's a much smaller footprint than a laptop, and I'm always low on desk real estate. Plus it'll fit nice in my carry-on.
Keep up the good work ETA! All the other tech channels assume I can spend 5k/month on technology
This just doesn't seem like a good idea for a number of reasons. The form factor of the deck is just inferior for laptop use. You don't have a keyboard, you don't have a trackpad, and the screen is tiny for a laptop. You'll be fiddling around with two or three disconnected devices in your lap instead of having one nice discreet device in a form factor designed for such use. Also, laptops can have dGPUs and can outperform the Deck (for more money, though). A laptop would also probably have a bigger battery.
It would be ok as a desktop replacement since you can have a monitor as well and there is a desk to set everything up. But it won't be a good laptop replacement.
Tip for the clear case: spray paint the inside. Use sandpaper on the outside.

👍🏼
@@robertlawrence9000 I'm thinking burgundy red, or blue and black paints. Use a little masking tape to get clean lines. Print out a stencil of the Valve logo, and get creative.
I can see girls using glitter paint.
If you don't want it glossy, use a fine grit sandpaper.
Clear cases are excellent for DIY personalization.
I got a couple clear cases for my ps4 controllers and its not that bad... Of course I'm not always looking at my controllers so this might be different.
I can't wait until D brand drops their "Switch Killer" case.
Killswitch poggies
@@perpetualcollapse yeah that thing
I saw that, but can't find the price? I know you can reserve it for $3, but do you know the full price?
Probably. $59.99
@@catgarcia2238 Thanks. I go with this. My other issue is the screen protector. I would like to get one, but I reserved the 512, which has the anti-glare screen. With the DBrand's protector negate that?
OF COURSE! For the power supply! 🤦I've been using the little bag to store my USB-C to A adapter, SD cards and USB-C to HDMI adapter lol Putting the power block in there makes way more sense.
Those hard clear case and silicone cases can actually cause damage to devices if dust or dirt gets under it. Better off waiting for the killswitch case from Dbrand I've had their grip cases for phones and they are usually really good quality.
I might actually get that crystal case and just intentionally sandpaper the front plates a bit to diffuse the glare, at least until better cases come out.
If you want, you could hydrodip the clear case in whatever cool pattern you like the look of.
This one is great vid been looking for more steam deck content
Man what kind of dark magic did you conjure to put a screen protector on first try without any hassle
Thanks for all your vids! Quick question please - with the plastic shell can the Deck still fit in the official Valve carry case? Thanks again and a big Hello from Ireland 🙂
Same question here
Same question, can you respond?
Have you tried it with the Nexdock yet? Could be a great option for some niche use cases.
Love that set up when you go through the keyboard functions that’s really cool with how you got your gaming set up like that , hopefully you can do more in future uploads with tutorials.
I've placed dozens of glass protectors on phones and devices, I've never had it just smooth out perfectly like yours did. Damn!
Question, it looks like you have the 512 gb version, would you still recommend using a screen protector? I have reservation for the 512gb model and I don’t care about loosing anti glare, can it cause damage or distort colors on anti glare screen? Thanks
I have a question, which seems the most relevant here since the Steam Deck can run very hot and requires the back of the case to stay cool. How do the temperatures look with the cases on?
The back being required is a function of the airflow pattern inside the steam deck. With the back off, the air just escapes before it can make it over all the components. Having a case shouldn't have any effect on that.
@@chrisdpratt Good info, thanks. Also, loved you in Guardians.
I always use a few drops of UV resin glue to attach the glass screen protector. It is a much Harder way of prepping it and it needs to have zero bubbles zero dust, but definitely worth it. I'm really OCD about it so it looks factory when I screen it.
Only if someone would make a bigger battery that comes with a replacement back panel made to account for the larger size but made to very close to oem spec. That would be a must have for me.
I just got the glass protector x2 pack and also the 'Heystop' TPU Protector for the Steam deck and a 512 Samsung Evo from Samsung
Thanks for your info video, and bought off Amazon UK.
salute to you ETA
PRO TIP: You can format your SD card using BTRFS instead of EXT4. That way you can save A LOT of space thanks to data compression, with a negligible/next to zero impact on performance or battery. The only downside is that SD mount have to be done from Desktop Mode instead directly from Game Mode (unless you edit...certain things).
Could be a good investigation topic, because BTRFS seems to fit Deck's SDs use case MUCH more better than EXT4.
Depends on the game. Btrfs doesn't compress AAA games that well
@@oasdfe1691 Yeah, compressing encrypted or previously compressed data doesn't work too well. Still, it'd probably be a great boost to your space if you want to do console emulation, etc., on the deck.
Since the silicone case was loose, have you tried fitting it over the hard case? Would remove the glare, and could make the silicone skin fit in a more pleasant manner.
GREAT IDEA IM GONNA DO THIS!!
Thanks for the video ETA. I am likely to get a Steam Deck by the end of the year and it is neat to see different products and software targeted at the Deck.
I really appreciate the demo for the screen protector putting those things on stresses me out.
that 20 dollar keyboard is the real hero of this video. I didn't realize mech keyboards were so cheap to make
For the crystal case buy a can of mat varnish, hit it all the day before you install it (from 12-18" away) and that should fix it
Definitely staying away from USB-C hubs until the official one releases. Tried one from a trusted retailer and it almost bricked my system, found out on Reddit a lot of other people were having the same issue.
A USB hub. Couldn't brick ur system.
I would agree I spent around 25£ last year on a type c hub and it's terrible it hasn't bricked my phone yet but it's so annoying particularly with my projector
@@ghostlegit PD standards can mess up devices
No. A USB hub bricking a PC? Excuse me while I disbelieve it.
@@Nickbaldeagle02 You can chose not to believe it but I'm not the only one having this issue. At least I was lucky and managed to fix it, other people had to send their Deck's back to Valve.
Love your videos! Short, sweet, geeky. I'd be interested to know if you even need the docking part from steam if you can just usb to hdmi it like this?
Also, with desktop mode and a beefy gpu, what's it like for python programming/tensorflow applications?
I’ll throw some tests in my next video
Do you need the official dock: no, not really. Propping up the deck is kinda nice as is the displayport output but I think valve are mainly releasing one so compatibility is guaranteed.
There is no Thunderbolt support so no eGPU's unfortunately.
I had to use PyCharm on my Steam Deck, and it worked as expected.
@@ETAPRIME Can you test out Jupyter Notebook, Anaconda 3 or 4 (or latest version) on the Deck? Thank you brother
Ooooo i'mma grab that clear case. Spray paint on the inside, seal that, clear pasti dip spray on the outside. fun colors, good feel.
I would love to know if you plug a 20 A power bank to the Steam Deck "from your backpack", while you play how much time can it play more, or if you have to stop playing to charge it better. And if you add a external SDD, "from your backpack", via USB, you can play better than from the SDD card.
always a great advertisement for a keyboard when the reviewer makes typos on it lol
I would be careful about the silicone cases. Silicone insulates extremely well, which is not good for thermals. I’ve seen people talking about thermal throttling on their steam decks after using a silicone case.
This was a fun watch, especially when I started saying "that's what she said!" after most of what he said, starting at 5:00.
If you dont have the most expensive version deck I recommend you use a glare resistant screen cover.
I never apply screen protector on my iPad, and the screen still doesn’t have single scratch after 5 years. Your device glass screen is tougher than you think, as long as you don’t bring keys or sharp metal objects near your devices.
And yet iPhones scratch like hell
I don't run screen protectors or cases for my phone (just a skin for extra grip/color) as I hate the feeling and bulk of both of them and even after two years I only have a single scratch in one corner which I know if from when I had keys in my pocket with the phone by accident. As you say the screens are pretty good right now if one takes a bit of care with handling.
I think how much you need a case depends on how you use it. Phones get carried around in pockets with no cover and sometimes other things, so they absolutely need protection. On the other hand, something like the Steam Deck will live in a case most of the time when not in use.
Yeah no this is terrible advice, especially for something as portable as this. My old phone had tons of scratches when it wasn't even a year old.
@@Swarm509 You hate the "bulk" of a screen protector? Geez if you actually think your device is unwieldy by adding a millimeter or two, you're actually insane.
They have a purple crystal case. It goes really well with the teardown skin from dbrand. Gives an OG purple gameboy color look.
Link? porvavor
Take a drink every time he says steam deck. Jokes aside thanks for the video.
I just realized after playing Sonic Riders and F-Zero GX (PAL/set to 50 hz) on my phone using MMJR2 that the GameCube is the GOAT. It's the GOAT of the GOAT generation of gaming. Can't wait when Deck plays them perfectly. GOAT handheld.
I just ordered the usb c hub (HDMI Adapter), and everyone should know that it only gets minimal charge while it's connected. I was using it last night watching TH-cam in Desktop mode and I got a notice that the battery was near dead. Which is majorly disappointing.
Love my choices. The Jsaux case fits perfectly into the ivoler dock!
Be careful with the HDMI docks their was some Reddit report on steam decks bricking. Everyone be careful treat your steam deck with care. Until valve rectify the situation with HDMI docs from bricking Decks.
That was the nicest i seen a screen protector go on. Crazy
I don’t even have mine yet and I just can’t wait to get my hands on one.
That rubber case looks like a gimp suit.
😂
Can't believe you installed Edge on the Deck...
I'll probably die of a heart attack when I receive that e-mail from Steam. Q2 BABY!!!
Just letting you know when you get the email, don't click on it instead go to your actual steam client and you'll get a special message letting you buy the deck from there. I know it sounds stupid but I'm just paranoid of clicking emails that might lead to phishing websites. Although I doubt anyone would send a fake email for the steam deck, better to be safe than not. I wrote this from my steam deck btw :)
Just bought the last keyboard with blue switches. Thank you for the keyboard recommendation
The ONLY THING I keep seeing as a positive on being in the Q2 gang is that we're getting the advantage of letting YOU twat all these things out for us first, rather than ending up with drawers full of modern PowerGlove/Sega Activator level bad gadgets.
Thank you for helping us dodge the ones that turn out to be real lemons!
I don't think calling a twat will make him want to keep reviewing these haha
@@MrConnorBig Yeah... I caught the typo right away, but for some reason it won't let me edit it... and to be fair, it's not in that context, and still fits. To "twat something out" (in slang/colloquial use) is to show it off in public very "loudly" so everyone sees, like a super-loud muffler on a souped up Honda Civic NOT for proper tuned compression, but to draw attention from bystanders. That's twatting out your Honda. so.... technically it still works either as the originally intended "test" and the typo. :-D
@@ArtemisKitty indeed its better this way haha
I was in quarter 2 but somehow ended up in quarter 3 I think
i used a few different esitmators that give you an idea of when your deck reservation will be available (would recommend, their easy to use, just asks for reservation id, model, and quarter your in) and among 3 of them i got april 11th to 18th, which could be a week earlier than that because of cancellations affecting it to come sooner, but i would highly recommend using it to know a rough idea when it will be available for you, not perfect but it gives you a estimate, may be off by a week or 2 tho. q2 gangs wait is nearly over tho
The hard plastic clear case looks really good
You can also get usb type c dongles with m.2 slots
I snagged a 1TB micro SD while it was on sale. I don't even have my Steam Deck yet. I'll pick up a screen protector though. Have one on my Switch.
That crystal case just buy a spray can of primer and a can of spray paint of any color of your choice, and bam! Protection and your favorite color for your steam deck!
Hello, I can’t wait to get mine. Thanks for all the content.why dont you try to put the silicon over the plastic best of both worlds.
That 400GB SD card... Is that the same one everyone buys on Amazon? Plus with that clear case will it fit back in the OEM carrying case?
Though it seems thin enough to avoid issues, I am curious if the hard shell makes the tolerances too tight when putting the Deck back in it's official carry case. Would love any insights you might have. Also, lots of back and forth here and elsewhere about screen protectors potentially harming the etched-glass version of the deck. Thoughts?
I really wish any review of a case for this or phones included thermals. Biggest concern with case is rising thermals and dropping performance, besides surviving a drop.
Would love if you can test out how the controls holds up when you have those added protector cases, since it's probably gonna affect the ergonomics.
I have my preorder in for the project killswitch from Dbrand, they also sell glass protectors and skins!
Yup that's what I'm excited for as well
But it is still a long time until we get those things :/
9H hardness is a lie. Glass scratches at level 5 or 6 with deeper grooves at level 7.
Yeah that 9H is for a completely different metric
9H does refer to the Mohs scale. On cheaper screen protectors I expect it is a lie, as they are made with plain glass. If you buy the $30-40+ screen protectors they are made with synthetic sapphire and do have a true hardness of 9.
Steam Deck can do Wii U emulation nicely and that console also had Breath of the Wild and Mario Kart 8. Why pay close to $100 for the Switch versions when you can play it for FREE via Wii U emulation?
Well, free plus the cost of the Deck.
I'm wondering if any of the magnification screens that people sell for the Switches would work for the Deck? They're very close in height.
Not sure if I missed it but with the hard clear case, will it fit in the stock carrying case without forcing it in or stretching the inside?
Nice video like always! Sorry if i missed it but could you go over how the steam deck runs with BigBox?
A flip down second screen would be amazing. CEMU with 2 screens, one being touch
That hard Crystal case will probably scratch up the steam deck
I imagine with those "skins" on, the steam deck doesn't fit into the official carrying case very well anymore. The Dbrand one looks particularly bulky and being unable to fit it in the carrying case was my first concern.
Skins don't add bulk. What's with the quotations by the way?
D Brand's Case seems very high quality though for sure
Let's see when it actually releases
They said it's gonna come with its own case
@@RetroDestroyer Interesting. I didn't realize it would come in its own case. My preference would be to continue using the case made by Valve.
@@LordDemonos I mean we can wait till it comes out to see if it's better than the Valve case
It doesn't come with it's own case, the protective case will actually BE the carrying case itself. I believe it has a front cover that basically makes it into a carrying case. If they had a price listed I'd probably preorder one.
Thanks alot for the tips!
Btw.. if your micro sd card is writing and unpacking super slow. You have to reformat your micro sd card in desktop mode following a guide and that should help (This is for A1 chips mostly but sometimes others my be like this.)
I think that screen protector not covering the whole screen would drive me nuts. The product page says it's to 'keep it from lifting off phones while in your pocket' or something like that but clearly not going to be an issue with this. Found another one that appears to cover the whole thing based on description/pictures and going that route.
Just my personal preference though, appreciate the video!
You should make an updated version of this video with new and better accessories!
When you cleaned your Steam Deck for the screen protector, I was like "Dude, I can even see the remaining dust from the camera. Wtf??"
Then I realized it was dust on MY SCREEN.
I think that's what we call "self-owned", lol
Just curious, as someone who's just put a glass protector over an etched-glass screen. Have you wrecked the anti glare capability? I'm not getting my Deck until Q3, but it is also a 512gb model and have thought that I should've gone for a lower tier model, so adding a protective screen would've made more sense.
Yes it makes it reflective
@@brandon_nope Does it lower the image quality by putting a screen protector on a 512? Mine’s coming today or tomorrow and I hope I didn’t screw myself…
@@Buffypoodle imo most glass screen protectors are a downgrade from the screen underneath. Sometimes the colors change slightly, rainbow effect can occur, but most importantly for phones, they just don't feel the same when scrolling.
@@807D14M0ND5 Hmm when I scroll on the Deck especially with the matte 512 screen it definitely doesn’t glide, not too smooth. Maybe some glass would rectify that, but I’ll have to look into it some more
@@Buffypoodle let us know how it turned out if you do go for a protector.
Screen protectors are a scam as an industry. They used to be viable before Corning refined their gorilla glass. Now, the screen protector will always scratch and always break from things that would have never scratched or cracked your device's screen. One surface scratching another comes down to hardness level and unless you're walking around with diamond jewelry in your backpack, I really don't think any normal dust, dirt or debris would scratch your screen. They're literally designed to not do that. But screen protectors are soft enough and are designed to do that, that's why they scratch and shatter. When it happens people usually think, "oh the screen protector just saved my device from it". It really didn't. It just broke giving you the idea it saved your device. This is true for impact fractures too. Corning glass is great at resisting it but screen protectors are not. The protector will shatter giving you the sense it did its job, when in reality that exactly is the scam. You're incurring an additional expense on your device to lay in a falsified safety net. Corning glass, especially, is fine on its own.
Great video. I am looking forward to getting mine.
When I get my Deck my Raspberry Pi will be history.
Somebody needs to make a Steam Deck hoody or cargo no pants or some type of clothing that would allow you to discreetly take it on the go
I really want an otter box style case. Maybe put the silicon over the clear plastic?
Nice review. I must say those "USB Type C to HDMI" dongles creates lots of input lag if you try to play some games on your TV. I guess we'll have to wait for the Valve dock :-\
That's your TV and not the dongle. If I plug my desktop PC into my 48" LG OLED I get horrible input lag, until I put the TV into a "gaming optimised" mode, which mutes the colours slightly, but fixes the input lag.
I'm gonna see if there's an "antiglare" screen protector when I get mine as I reserved the 256 model
