I was wondering how many of you out there who ordered the OLED model on release already got their Deck? Mine is stuck at "packaged items" for a couple of days and I am starting to get anxious when I get it.
My OG Deck was also stuck at "packaged" for a few days, I wouldn't worry about it. They probably have tons of these things to ship and are a bit backed up.
It's the Limited Edition, and while most of what the reviews said was spot on, it seems either QAM and Steam buttons on the LE are a bit different or something, because they're ever so slightly raised above the body of the deck.
UK here as well, ordered at precisely 18:22 according to Steam Purchase history. I'm still on "Packaged Items"/"Shipping Soon" and have been since last week. Starting to suck now that I'm seeing people who ordered after me getting theirs.
Hahaha, I have just checked and I also ordered it 22 minutes after they started accepting orders and mine says that it is shipped but when I check with the carrier, it says that only the information for the shipping has been sent online but they don't have it with them, hence probably won't get it this weekend which sucks.
I'm jealous of y'all. Mine just hit shipped today, and won't arrive until next Tuesday thanks to the holiday weekend. Got it 41 minutes after launch too. Not LE though, so maybe they prioritized those?
I just got notification that they have created a shipping label but the device is still not yet handed over to the forwarder. Mine is the 512Gb model and I am based in Europe.
Ordered it the same, 1TB though. Mine is estimated for the following Tuesday. Took them forever to get it to the carrier, which I got info on yesterday.
I upgraded to an OLED from an OG 512. I definitely don't think it was a "must have" upgrade, but I was never really bothered by the LCD.
The only thing I have approaching a complaint, which is more of a "huh I didn't actually think about that", is that on the LE the charging LED shows through the transparent case from the front. I think I can probably come up with some way to fix that (or at least make it much dimmer from the front).
Yeah I had the exact same thought - “huh, transparent case and charging led” - but I hear they’re going to come out with an update to adjust the intensity of it, so that may help that.
I also upgraded from OG 512 - personally love the OLED so far. Screen is really nice, battery life will be great to have on my business trips, and the clickiness of the Steam and … buttons is a definite improvement. Do you need any of these things? No… but they are really nice things.
Mine was supposed to get here Friday, was on the truck on Saturday and i was refreshing every few hours (as you do). On Monday it said it would actually get here Wednesday (today)! Then Tuesday it said it was delayed, updated to Friday, and it hasn't updated from Hodgkin IL since yesterday at 5am. Maybe if I just keep updating it'll change it's mind again :(
Got my LE just after noon yesterday in Minneapolis with an order that went through @ 29 minutes.
Absolutely loving it so far. It might be all in my head but I swear it feels noticeably lighter and it's definitely way quieter, but I never did figure out if my OG deck had the loud or quiet fan.
Yes, don't know how much you can feel those 30 grams to be honest. I think it is mostly a mental feeling like a placebo effect. But on the other hand it is kind of amazing they did manage to lower the weight by also increasing the size of the battery.
Got the 512 Oled on day one. Right now is in transit to the final parcel center. I guess it will be delivered the next week. I was hoping for this weekend, but whatever 🤷♂️.
Got mine yesterday. The 'normal' one because Europe. Nonetheless extremely happy with it. Also delivered within 5 working days instead of the 6 to 10 as listed on Steam
Lucky you, I am also in Europe and since 2 days my deck is listed as shipped even though when I check the carrier it says that only the request has been filled out but they didn't receive it.
Yes, I have ordered mine 22 minutes after the window opened and am still waiting. The device is sent already but it is with GLS and apparently they will need 6 days to transport it 800km, absolutely ridiculous, not to mention that their tracking sucks big time.
