I am terribly jealous of anyone who is able to grab one of these. Valve just announced the Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White is coming soon.

Available starting November 18th at 11PM UTC, like the previous Limited Edition there will be only limited quantities available so it's very much first come first served until they run out. Unlike the other Limited Edition though that was US only, this will be available everywhere the Steam Deck currently is and that includes the newly launched Australia region.

Stock will be allocated "proportionally" across each region, with separate availability between US, CA, UK, EU, AU, and regions covered by KOMODO (Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and South Korea).

Valve say the Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White has all the same specs as the Steam Deck OLED 1TB model, but in white and grey (and it comes with an exclusive white carrying case).

Same price as the previous translucent Limited Edition at $679 USD.

Why are they doing this? From the press email sent to me:

Last year, we released a smoky translucent limited edition Steam Deck OLED as an experiment to find out if there was interest in alternative colorways (there was!). This is our second experiment along those lines. The difference this time (aside from the color!) is that we're able to ship the Limited Edition White to all regions where Steam Deck already ships. We're curious to see what the response is, and will use what we learn to inform future decisions about any potential new color variants down the line.

We've been super happy with the reception of Steam Deck since we first launched the LCD version in March of 2022. We've always said our intent is to continually work on improving Steam Deck, and that's true from both a software perspective (continuing to ship improvements) and a hardware one (Steam Deck OLED, as well as ongoing work toward the future of Steam Deck and other hardware plans).

As always, we're looking forward to hearing feedback from customers once we start shipping.

Keep an eye on the Steam Deck website for when it goes live to buy one. It's restricted to 1 per account, and you must have made a Steam purchase before November 2024 to be able to buy one.

One of my favourite bands actually, originally recommended to me because of that song . . . but I prefer American Wedding.
