Valve 已大幅提高其 Steam Deck OLED 机型的售价,理由是内存、存储成本的上升以及全球物流挑战。512GB 型号的价格已从 549 美元上涨至 789 美元,而 1TB 型号则从 649 美元调整为 949 美元。尽管价格上涨,但在经历过往因零件短缺导致的供应问题后,目前两款设备均有现货,且发货周期较短。官翻版设备仍以较低的价格出售。 这些持续的供应链限制也影响了 Valve 更广泛的硬件路线图。该公司原计划于 2026 年初推出的 Steam Machine 和 Steam Frame 设备,现预计将于今年晚些时候出货。与此同时,Steam Controller 已于 5 月 4 日成功发布。Valve 表示,Steam Deck 的硬件规格保持不变,公司将继续密切关注零件成本。

Steam Deck 近期的价格上涨(部分型号涨幅高达 300 美元)在 Hacker News 上引发了热烈讨论。许多用户认为,这反映出一种更广泛的经济转变:消费电子产品不再像过去那样持续降价。 参与者将价格上涨归因于多种因素:全球通货膨胀、由“AI 超大规模数据中心”对硬件的巨大需求所导致的供应链限制,以及科技生产重点的整体偏移。评论者们对个人计算设备可能变得不再亲民感到沮丧,并担忧未来消费者将被迫“租赁算力”而非拥有硬件。 尽管部分用户对现有旧设备的寿命仍持乐观态度,但其他人担心廉价消费电子产品的时代已经终结。这场讨论反映出人们对科技行业日益增长的不满,许多人认为由 AI 驱动的基础设施投资正在挤占资源并推高生活成本,使得普通消费者在购买奢侈品和基础硬件时,能够选择的廉价方案越来越少。

Valve has significantly increased the price of the Steam Deck — but now, it’s also in stock. The 512GB Steam Deck OLED now costs $789, up from $549, while the 1TB model costs $949, up from $649. As I write this, both models are available to buy on Steam with an estimated delivery date of three to five business days.

The company says the price increase is because of “rising memory and storage costs.” Nothing about the Steam Deck has changed, but “these new prices reflect the current state of component costs and other global logistical challenges across the industry as a whole. We’ll keep you updated if anything changes.”

Some refurbished Steam Deck models are also currently available, including the 512GB OLED model at $629 and the 1TB OLED model at $759.

In February, updated the Steam Deck’s store listing to say that the handheld gaming PC would be out of stock “intermittently in some regions due to memory and storage shortages.” Memory and storage shortages have also created hurdles for Valve’s planned launches of the Steam Machine and Steam Frame; the company originally wanted to launch those in early 2026, but due to the shortages, it now it expects to ship them at some point this year.

Valve did launch the Steam Controller, which it announced alongside the Machine and the Frame late last year, on May 4th.
