In an interview with The Verge, Steam Deck designers Lawrence Young and Pierre-Loup Griffet shared the first details about the second-generation portable PC.
The company is already developing the device and is focused on improving the display and battery life. On the contrary, you should not expect a significant increase in performance: the company does not want to separate customers by the power of their devices.
Also in the new generation, the design of the case will be finalized to simplify access to components. This is also being done for the first version of Steam Deck: in new shipments, it is much easier to replace the battery.
When the second generation of Steam Deck will be presented is unknown. They will not stop improving the original Steam Deck: the company is constantly releasing updates, and within the team, there are two task lists – bugs that need to be fixed and new features.
