Valve Shares Steam Deck Teardown Video Doesn T Want You To Do It Yourself

A few months back, Valve announced the Steam Deck handheld gaming console to rival the Nintendo Switch. While early customers are still waiting for the company to start shipping Steam Deck in December, Valve has shared an official teardown video of the console on its official YouTube channel. The company also explains why shouldn’t manually attempt to open Steam Deck.

Valve starts off the video by acknowledging that you have every right to open up your PC and do what you want. However, it strongly recommends not opening it. “The Steam Deck is a very tightly designed system and the parts are chosen carefully for this product with its specific construction, so they aren’t really designed to be user-swappable,” says the company.
