i wanted to wait till i got my skins to post but. i have acquired a Deck. i have named her the Creature (my gaming desktop is the Beast) and i love her very much so far
specs on the deck, screen protector, skins, etc under the cut, and a little on my experience so far
so i placed my reservation day one for the most basic model of the steam deck, the 64gb w/o the ~special glass~, and was projected to receive in q2. i got my order confirmation email on 5/20, purchased that day, and received fedex tracking info the next day. i received my deck on 5/27. in anticipation of its arrival i ordered a set of 4 tempered glass screen protectors from amazon for $8 (lit just search "steam deck tempered glass" and you'll find what i got), and a 512gb uhs-i micro sd card to expand that pitiful 64gb. after playing with the deck for about a week i put in an order for skins: i got the dbrand steam deck skin in Kind of Purple on the front and black Swarm on the back/touchpads.
(a note on the skins: i find the cuts were of EXCELLENT quality and getting a good result, with minimal wrinkles/warping, is a matter of going very slow, using a lot of heat, and trying to pull the skin off and on during application as little as possible. i really like the feel of both the matte Purple front and the textured hexagonal pattern on the back. idk how much i'm going to like it on the touchpads, but i can always peel the Swarm squares off and put on the Purple that came with the front piece. i think they're a good value for the money, but i wouldn't buy their ultra special tempered glass at $25 for a 2 pack. at the end of the day it's just sticky tempered glass rectangles...)
the steam deck itself-- i REALLY like it. i'm an ideal user for this device, tho: i have a large steam library, i built my own pc so i appreciate the hardware and design work on this, and have become a primarily switch gamer this last year bc my gaming time has gradually shifted more towards an hour or two before bed or work than the 4-8 hour gaming marathons of college. the steam deck fills that niche well. i've picked up and played 3 different games so far (aperture desk job to learn the controls, tacoma, then night in the woods as pictured above) and had a great experience in all of them. even if a game is listed as iffy on the deck, it's worth giving it a shot-- often the biggest issue you'll run into is text size. the deck lets me particularly play smaller indie games i really want to play, but haven't felt up to booting my whole ass pc and sitting down at a desk for since i bought them. i bought tacoma the year it came out and JUST NOW got to it, and loved it! im very excited for how many more small projects the deck will let me finally spend time with because of its portability.
urgh okay switching to bullets to try to better organize my thoughts:
i got the good fan! i haven't found it to be loud at all, but i HAVE found the deck gets hot fast even running non-AAA titles. i actually went and toggled off their new fan settings that minimized when it ran in favor of the old BIOS-based ones. i would rather hear the soft sound of my fan all the time and know the unit's temp is well-regulated, rather than possibly degrade my hardware faster for Silence. glad i have the option to opt in or out of integral device updates, too!
i tried using the deck in desktop mode to install some of my itch.io library with mixed results. the linux desktop is intuitive, if small, and as a firefox user on all devices it was very easy to log in to firefox pre-installed on the device and get all my bookmarks/logins. i was able to download and extract game files from itch. i was even able to run a couple games! unfortunately the input scheme translation issue between the deck and a game running in desktop mode is rough, and the onscreen keyboard can't bridge the gap. i'm going to keep futzing with this, though! i want to play those games and it's definitely (theoretically) possible
the steam deck os is DEFINITELY in beta, and is missing some features big picture mode has. the onscreen keyboard is... bad. but software is a comparatively easy fix, and it's by no means unusable
the ergonomics work well for me! granted, i have big hands, but the button/trigger placements feel very natural, and switching to using the touchpad vs the right analog stick is nothing. for how many buttons they stuck on this thing, i'm impressed they all feel pretty good! it's definitely heavier than the switch and i haven't felt comfortable commuting with it yet. but in my experience so far, preventing wrist strain is as easy as curling up in bed or in a chair and naturally resting some point of the deck on a pillow/arm/side table, which was my same strat with the switch.
i haven't used any bluetooth peripherals yet, so nothing to say there. but it still has a headphone jack. THANK YOU. my god, i missed being able to use some of my best headphones. not to mention p much any gamer headset with headphones and mic routed through one jack.
the case is nice? no room for other items (sd card case, stylus, cable, etc) but it's very solidly built. but again, haven't travelled with the deck yet
right now there's an issue with where shader caches and other supporting data files for games get stored. i've loaded about 300gb of games on my sd so far with no problem, but my deck's default 64gb storage is almost full just from files supporting those games being saved there instead of on the card. as more people get decks, i expect a patch to make sure all files get saved one place or another will come down, though rumor has it there's a linux thing you can run to fix this... but ive been too chickenshit to try running too much on the desktop side that could alter the device's os
whew thats a lot!!! to distill, ive been enjoying this device for what it is: a new piece of tech with some flaws to be addressed, that gives me another way to interact with games i already own, and feels much more transparent in its development (and reparable! i didnt even get into the replacement parts!) than the switch. i really like it, and if you're expecting one or thinking about reserving, i hope this gave you some more info about the experience!
#don't @ me i can see the tee tiny creases#if they bother u know that they make me insane. but i rly like how the skins went on overall#wow i wrote TOO MUCH ABOUT THE STEAM DECK lmao#dot txt#steam deck#dbrand#dbrand steam deck#picspam

Putting a sponsor in an apology video is low, but jokingly leading into a sponsor, just to say "not really but DBrand did want to" is utter clownage.
I hate DBrand for wanting to sponsor a fucking apology video. For wanting to be involved in this clusterfuck, for wanting to sponsor SA, whether known or not, you don't jump into controversy and not expect something worse to come later.
And if DBrand didn't actually want to sponsor a fucking apology video, then LTT just threw them under the bus for a off-taste joke.
It doesn't matter either way Because It Was Essentially A Sponsorship Anyways. They Said The Fucking Name FFS.
The empty heads of either company folks.

Dbrand Takes a Shot at Nintendo With Their New Clone of the Kingdom Skin for the Switch
Dbrand is a purveyor of some pretty cool skins for a variety of products, including the Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5 and Xbox. They also sell a bunch of different cases, screen protectors and other assorted bits and bobs. They’ve grown to quite a size, appearing in numerous places, including as a long-running sponsor of Linus Tech Tips where they quite often use their money to make fun of Linus…

A Comprehensive guide to selecting CutFile Templates for Gadget Skin Wrap
Starting up a skin business and wondering which cut templates to use for cutting vinyl skins. Don’t worry; we are here to guide you.
There are two main options available:
Buying mobile skin software with pre-installed cut file templates for various mobile phones
Buying individual vector cut file templates for multiple devices as per your requirement
Skin Software
The phone skin design software comes with cut file templates of various phones of different brands that are used to design custom, textured, or transparent phone skins. There are only a few software available in the market, and you can choose one per your requirements.
Vector CutFile Templates
Apart from skin design software, some companies also sell individual cut file skin templates. You can explore their digital products by visiting their website or find them simply by Google.
I have compared mobile skin design software and individual cut file templates and tried to list their major pros and cons.
I have also listed a few sources which sell vector cut file templates and tried to compare them so that you can get a clear idea about each one of them.
Comparison of vector cut file of iPhone X from different sources:
I have purchased a vector cut file template of iPhone X from different sources and compared them to check their quality. I have listed my observations below:
Only RoleArtDesignStudio and VecRas were unique, as depicted by the anchor points. Rest all (ANVector, Brutal Visual Studio, DNVectors, and RYVector) had the same file. The anchor points were in the same position (as shown), which seemed quite strange and pointed toward the probability of the unauthorized sale of files after purchase or the creation of files by tracing.
The file provided by SkinTemplatePro had an incomplete shape.
Major issues:
Unnecessary margin around buttons
Short/Overlap Corner Flaps
Misalignment of Speaker and Button shapes
Extra margin around the Logo
Misalignment of Front camera and sensor shapes
Conclusion
I found that VecRas offers precise vector cut files, a world-renowned and authentic brand with global dominance in creating vinyl-ready vector skin templates and Smart PSD Mockups. You will get everything you need in one shop.
As per my observation, I have listed some key features and benefits of choosing VecRas.
Vector cut files created by VecRas are much more precise than those provided in skin software as they test their files on the original devices using 3M vinyl material and two different types of cutters. They also upload skin test images, enabling them to look at precise fit skins manufactured using their vector cut templates.
They provide templates for many phones, laptops, tablets, gaming devices, audio-video devices, wearables, etc. While skin software has the majority of cut files for phones only, other device categories are usually not offered. https://vecras.com/pages/cutfiles
Their skin templates are compatible with various popular cutters/plotters, while Skin software can only be used with the hardware supplied by that particular company. Hence hardware also needs to be purchased from the same supplier.
CutFiles by VecRas are created by a team of experts with more than a decade of experience. Hence, their files are designed with a unique professional style and are highly precise, even on small holes, ports, corners, rounded shapes, etc.
They provide cut file vector templates in 5-6 different file formats (Ai, CDR, EPS, PLT, DXF, and SVG) so that they are convenient for you to use, while skin software generally offers only one format.
They also offer you the freedom to customize any cutfile per your requirement, while skin software does not provide any or little customization options.
These files allow for processing bulk orders, while there are limitations in skin software.
Additionally, their reliable support system seriously considers your requirements and works diligently to serve you. If you have any questions, want a few tips, need guidance, or wish to inquire about custom work, go ahead and contact them at [email protected] https://vecras.com/pages/contact.
Besides vector cut file templates, they also provide matching skin mockups to prepare high-quality website listing images, just like actual products. https://vecras.com/pages/smartpsds
They offer a knowledge base such as blogs and How-to videos to support the needs of their clients all over the world. https://vecras.com/blogs/knowledge-base
You also get 4K Skin Pasting Tutorials for the How-To section. https://vecras.com/collections/vinyl-skin-promotional-videos
The best part, you can check the quality for just $1 before making your decision. https://vecras.com/collections/samples
Please take your time to check the quality and services of different suppliers. This critical decision can lay a solid foundation for establishing your successful skin business.

How my phone looks now — a 4 frame story in reverse chronological order! I got this @dbrand teardown skin designed in collaboration with @zacksjerryrig (it took about a month or more to get it) and I applied it on my phone. Yes, though it seems odd, I’m using both a transparent case and a skin, so that my card is also there. This is what you’re seeing in selfies now. Also, for those seeing my content on FB, please note that Reels don’t get shared there, and I’d posted a Reel a few days back, showing this skin, which Zack also shared, as a result of which that has got 44K+ views. These pictures of Samsung Galaxy S22 are shot with iPhone 12 Mini. #karthikabhiram #shotoniphone #vsco #dbrand #teardown #zacksjerryrig #samsung #s22 #handsinframe (at Secunderabad) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck44VzDLM_A/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
