Steam Deck OLED Sells Out in US; Available in Select Regions

The Steam Deck OLED is currently experiencing a significant surge in demand, leading to its sell-out status in the United States. This model offers a high dynamic range (HDR) display, a faster refresh rate, and an upgraded processor compared to the previous LCD version.

Current Stock Status and Availability

As of now, all three models of the Steam Deck—256GB LCD, 512GB OLED, and 1TB OLED—are out of stock in the United States. However, customers in other regions still have the opportunity to purchase the OLED models.

International Availability

Despite the U.S. stock sell-out, reports indicate that the OLED variant remains available in select international markets. Here’s a breakdown of the current status across several countries:

Country 256GB LCD 512GB OLED 1TB OLED
United States Out of stock Out of stock Out of stock
Canada Out of stock Out of stock Out of stock
United Kingdom In stock In stock In stock
Germany Out of stock In stock In stock
Netherlands Out of stock In stock In stock
Australia In stock In stock In stock

Factors Influencing Availability

The ongoing shortage of RAM and SSD components is likely contributing to the sell-out situation in the U.S. market. Moreover, Valve is reportedly facing challenges with the launch of its new Steam Machine, which may further affect stock levels.

Future of the Steam Deck Models

While Valve has made no announcements regarding the discontinuation of the OLED models, the 256GB LCD variant was phased out in late 2025. This suggests that once sold out, that specific model will not return to the market.

For those still looking to purchase, consider checking third-party retailers, although prices may be inflated compared to the official store. Additionally, used Steam Decks may be found online for those not concerned with brand new devices.

As demand continues to rise, it remains uncertain how long the availability of the Steam Deck OLED will last in regions outside the U.S.
