The Steam Deck is Valve’s best-selling product once again, and all it took was a discount and an upgrade

Valve’s Steam Deck has reclaimed its place as Valve’s best-selling product to date. The console dropped off of Steam’s top 10 best sellers list a few months ago, but thanks to the introduction of the Steam Deck OLED and the subsequent price cuts of the older LCD variants, the handheld console has managed to not only rejoin the list but it has jumped to number one (a position it hasn’t held in a long time). 

The Steam Deck’s popularity saw a resurgence when Valve introduced the new Steam Deck OLED. The Steam Deck OLED represents the first major update to the Steam Deck since the handheld console was originally unveiled in Feb. 2022. The upgraded OLED version features a number of upgrades over its predecessor, including a larger and significantly more capable 90 Hz OLED panel, a bigger battery, upgraded wireless connectivity, upgraded haptic feedback, and better base storage (among others).
