Valve is upgrading its Steam Deck before release, but we still don’t know how much it will cost
Valve has quietly updated the specifications of the official unreleased platform for Steam Deck PDA, As I mentioned geek review. The Steam Deck technical specifications page originally stated that the dock will feature a USB-A 3.1 port, two USB-A 2.0 ports, and an Ethernet network port, but the page now states that all three The USB-A ports will use the much faster 3.1 standard, and they now state that the Ethernet port will actually be a Gigabit Ethernet port.
According to the Wayback Machine, Valve’s Steam platform technical specifications page lists original specifications as of February 12The graph accompanying the dock indicates the Ethernet port to create the network. But Until February 22, updated specifications for the list of three USB-A 3.1 ports. And Until February 25 – On the first day of starting the valve Sell Steam Deck – Docking chart has been updated to show the three USB-A 3.1 ports And Gigabit Ethernet socket.
(The February 25 Wayback Machine archive is also the first time I’ve seen Valve use the title “docking station” instead of “official docking”.)
The upgrades look good for the platform and I’m looking forward to picking one up for myself. I envision a future where I can use the docking station to play Steam games on the TV in the living room. Unfortunately, I don’t know exactly when I’ll be able to do this, because Valve only provided a vague end-spring 2022 release date for the platform, and the company hasn’t shared how much it might cost. Valve did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
If you don’t want to wait for Valve’s official platform, the company says you can use other USB-C hubs instead, as your colleague Sean Holister did in his review. but i waited long enough For the deck itself, how about a few more months for the berth?
