Valve has approved the new portable console model Steam Deck by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC). In this respect reports Border.
The new model, numbered 1030, differs from the original 1010 model by supporting the Wi-Fi 6E standard. The innovation will allow the device to operate in the 6 GHz network band, providing higher speed and reliability of wireless communications. To implement Wi-Fi 6E, the Steam Deck uses Quectel’s FC66E chip.
It is not yet known whether the new Steam Deck model has any other improvements over the original version. The Verge suggests that Valve may make other hardware changes to the new product. However, Valve has not yet made an official statement about the new Steam Deck model.
The existence of the 1030 model was first learned in September 2023, when it was certified in South Korea. At the time, it was unclear what this device was or how it related to Valve products.
In September, Valve engineer Pierre-Loup Griffet said a more powerful Steam Deck model wouldn’t be released until 2025 or 2026. However, this does not mean that the company can release a console with an improved screen or, for example, an updated design.
