Valve’s game console, Steam Deck, was officially released today. The handheld has a good reputation in many media, but some players are not very satisfied with its battery life. Valve’s designers say they’ve done their best to squeeze in a bigger battery.
Valve designers Greg Coomer and Jay Shaw said in an interview that they did their best to fit a larger battery into a device of this size, but they also had other components to consider. When referring to the three versions of the handheld, they said they didn’t want to make the battery difference between the different versions, but mainly considered the difference in memory.
The three versions of Steam Deck have storage of 64GB, 256GB and 512GB respectively. Compared with the 64GB version, the 256GB and 512GB versions will have faster-loading speeds, especially the 512GB version.
