Valve put a new Steam Deck through the FCC in August.

    Gonna laugh hard if valve is just sourcing wireless chips from a different vendor and tracking under a new sku

      That’s basically all this is, same as they did for other components like fans and SSDs already.

      The new wifi chip might be faster or support more recent standards, but that’s hardly worth even calling it a product refresh.

      I’m disappointed the Verge published these claims of “OMG this is a stealth upgrade!!1” with literally no other evidence.

        Evidence for: new WiFi chip
        Evidence against: valve literally said they weren’t going to do it

        Conclusion: steam deck 2!!!1!!

          valve literally said they weren’t going to do it

          Raspberry pi said so as well. Month later, the new model was released.

      We know Valve has two upcoming devices using the Steam Deck APU with different internal code names, so probably a revised deck and a VR device.
