Valve announces Steam Deck shortage amid memory supply issues and end of 256GB model production
Valve has announced a temporary out-of-stock status for all Steam Deck consoles due to memory supply shortages. The 256GB LCD model is no longer in production and will be discontinued once current stocks are sold out.

Other models featuring OLED displays and larger storage capacities (512GB and 1TB) remain available, but their availability may be intermittent and regionally limited due to ongoing memory constraints. All models feature 1280 x 800 60Hz displays, with battery life ranging from 5 to 14 hours depending on the variant.
This shortage could affect the availability of Steam Deck devices in the coming months, prompting prospective buyers to anticipate potential delays or out-of-stock situations. Valve is expected to actively address the supply chain challenges.
