Pros & Cons

Pros

Reviewer says covering the giant metal plate on this version was a good call. The fact it came with the screwdriver required and extra screws is also super cool.

All cases on the market cover the added intake vent, which mitigates much of the thermal benefit. The fan seems to ramp up less, so it might actually negate the noise issue.



Cons

They are insanely small and inadequate. The right trigger would get stuck from bad fit.

I wish the front plate wasnt such a hassle because it'd look amazing fully clear/purple!

    I bought it used it for about a month and went back to the stock back after reading reports of less hard drive life and the possibility of the charging circuit overheating and leading to shorter life

    What’s even better is it lowered my overall temps some and the fan didn’t have to kick on as high so lower fan noise

    The temperature of the steam deck really dropped from 88°c that it gave me now it only gives 76°c in most games what should be noted in the other photo that i am showing is that that right side i had to lower it with sandpaper completely because when i put it on the right trigger got stuck a lot before screwing always check that it doesnt get stuck with the trigger buttons of your steam deck

    The back flippers are a huge plus
