Why wont my steam deck charge to 100?
If your device has been left on the charger for long periods of time, it may report less than 100% charge. This is normal. We allow the battery to slowly discharge after long periods of time under charge to optimize long-term battery health.

Does the steam deck overheat?
The Steam Deck is an incredible machine. However, it also gets incredibly hot. If you want to prevent the stuttering and crashes that inevitably come with overheating, you'll definitely want to do something about that. The Unitek Cooler Dock Pro offers one potentially good option.
