Unboxing my Steam Deck

He unboxes a £560, 512GB Steam Deck after waiting since February, choosing the largest storage for installing several games. Compared with his Switch, the Deck feels enormous yet manageable; he examines its case, grips, controls, trackpads, microphones, and SD slot. He finds the device uncharged, so postpones setup and gameplay after inspecting the charger, instructions, ports, back buttons, and included cleaning cloth.

A long-awaited gaming upgrade arrives, but its size and lack of charge temper excitement.
