Valve’s Steam Deck is still regarded as one of the best gaming handhelds on the market, proven by how well it continues to sell. So it’s no surprise that Valve, in a recent Steam blog post, has announced a limited-edition Steam Deck OLED in white for worldwide release.

One year after launching the Steam Deck with an OLED display, Valve is releasing the same handheld again but in white. Aptly called the Steam Deck OLED Limited Edition White, the portable PC will be available worldwide next week.
