Valve has rolled out one of its strongest Black Friday offers yet, cutting the price of the Steam Deck’s 256GB LCD model to about $319. The discount brings the handheld down roughly 20 percent from its usual price, making it one of the most accessible ways to step into portable PC gaming.

Steam Deck discounts are uncommon, and Valve typically keeps pricing stable throughout the year. The size of this drop suggests a push to move hardware during the holiday season while also giving budget-minded players a chance to try PC gaming without committing to the cost of the OLED version.

The LCD model still handles a wide range of games with solid performance. It lacks the improved brightness and battery efficiencies of the OLED, but the lower price makes it easier to justify those trade-offs if you care more about portability and access to Steam’s library than premium display quality.

For anyone who has been waiting for the right moment to buy a Steam Deck, this deal offers one of the best entry points the handheld has had since launch.
