Two big things have arrived. The first is that you can attempt to grab the sleek looking Steam Deck OLED: Limited Edition White right now, and the Steam Deck is now available in Australia.
The new Limited Edition White costs £599 / $679 and has the same specifications as the 1TB OLED. Although, you do get an exclusive Limited Edition White carrying case, startup movie, and virtual keyboard theme. Valve said they've "allocated stock proportionally across all regions, and restricting purchases to 1 unit per account" and that to purchase your account "must have made a Steam purchase before November 2024 and be in good standing".
Once it's gone, it's gone. So if you're somehow still on the fence, now might be the best time to get one of the coolest-looking models.
Australia also joins then list of supported regions for the Steam Deck officially now too. Prices for Australia are:
- 256GB LCD: $649.00 AUD
- 512GB OLED: $899.00 AUD
- 1TB OLED: $1049.00 AUD
See more on the Steam Deck store page.
Will you be grabbing the White model, or are you in Australia buying officially? Let me know in the comments.

Quoting: CybolicIt looks great, but not quite as pretty as the semi-translucent black one that was exclusive to the USA. I do wish they had started out by offering that one worldwide first, but I guess that would technically be against the "limited edition" idea behind it.
I guess I'll wait for the inevitable translucent purple one
They could have made a variant of ths translucent one and I dont think anyone would mind especially for us first hour pre-order Deck owners who hadn't planned on buying anything that expensive again the year after and had to miss out.
A second chance woulda been nice.
I'd like to upgrade but not digging that color scheme enough to shell out again.
Really hoping they do a few more non-limited color ways without the FOMO and preferably a discount on fhe OLEDs in general as they discounted the LCD ones after only a year.
