The Steam Deck handheld console has been DIY-friendly since its inception. Valve not only provides detailed teardown diagrams but also allows players to replace components like SSDs, joysticks, and even the shell. According to reports from GamingOnLinux and Windows Central, iFixit recently launched a Steam Deck repair toolkit, catering to players looking to modify or repair their own devices.
The toolkit includes 7 tools, each serving specific purposes:
- iFixit Precision Screwdriver Handle: Ergonomically designed for comfortable, non-slip handling to ensure precise operations.
- iFixit Precision 4mm Screwdriver Bits: Includes PH0, PH1, and TR6 bits made from high-quality S2 steel for durability and accuracy.
- Spudger: Made of glass-filled nylon for safe prying and poking.
- Tweezers: Precision tweezers for handling small components.
- iFixit Opening Picks: For prying, sliding, and separating objects.
- Anti-static brush and precision cleaning brush: For dust and debris removal from the console.
- Anti-static wrist strap: Essential for protecting electronic components from static damage during repairs.
iFixit claims the toolkit is versatile for various Steam Deck repairs, whether upgrading storage for the 64GB LCD model or replacing fans on the OLED version. Priced at $12.95, it aims to meet the needs of DIY enthusiasts effectively.
