GripCase SD for Steam Deck: A Soft Protective Case with Textured Grips Full Protection and Stand, Shock-Absorption Non-Slip and Anti-Scratch Cover Design - Black

My favorite Steam Deck case out of the three that I've purchased. My biggest gripe with most cases is the grip (hand fatigue), Bumper access, and color ways. This one meets two out of three; I love purple, but still wish I had a different color to choose from. She takes a good drop here or there, but that's from my hands to the desk, not from sitting or standing all the way to the floor. Doesn't pass too much heat from the system, somewhat light, easy to put on, and stands on its own. Had it for a year and it's still going strong.

I love the Deck but I find its surface a bit rough and it causes my hands to get sweaty after long play sessions. This fixes that and adds a really nice texture to it. It also of course protects it from scratches and some drops. Its effect on overall ergonomics isn’t massive, but the Steam Deck already excels at that anyway and this allows it to fit in the official case (it’s a tight fit but you can definitely make it work). It’s very easy to put on and take off, can be done with little effort but it still feels secure. You can’t use it with the official but that’s where another bonus feature comes in: you can stand it up. No kickstand or anything, just put it down straight and it’ll stay upright. This is obviously just useful in general but it gets around the dock issue because you can just stand the Deck up in front of the dock and then plug it in. Awesome product!

This case is wonderful. I wanted a little bit larger grip on the deck and this works perfectly and also still fits in the OEM case. I was having some thumb pain formerly when hitting the “O” button on the deck and this has given me enough extra grip and space to move my thumb so it doesn’t bother me anymore. I would recommend this to anyone. Things to note, I use a little right angle plug for my charger so I can charge my deck in the case. It doesn’t fit quite right due to the thickness of this. Feels high quality, easily comes off and on the deck without falling off during use.

I’m not a huge fan of the giant added grips as someone with smaller hands. Having the offering as something slim and grippy that meshes with the oled steam deck is really appreciated. The black matches the deck perfectly so the color is great. The thickness is noticeable but super flush. It slips in perfectly and causes no issues with ease of use. The protection is there for the back; but of course the device is exposed at the front so keep it in a case when traveling. I have the oled steam deck case and it fits perfect with the case on inside it. My only complaint (and it’s a nitpick) is that the button cover doesn’t match the oled steam deck (who’s only differing feature on a body level is said button). I kinda wish it had an orange button option. Otherwise, the value is great so I recommend you buy it!

Quick pros and cons from a few hours of gameplay: ++The flat, angled bottom acts as a simple stand that works very well on flat, hard surfaces. I do a lot of tinkering while at my PC, so being able to just set the Deck down without to fiddle around is nice! ++I have small hands, but the case's grips and form factor aren't too bulky. I can comfortably reach all the buttons, and I haven't noticed any areas where the case pinches or catches my fingers. ++The textured grippiness of handles is also comfortable ++The Deck still fits into my generic metal USB dock, though it does sit almost vertically in the slot. ++The case is easy to apply and remove ~~For as nice as the "stand" is, it won't work on a couch or a cushion. The base just isn't wide enough. ~~The volume buttons are functional but stiffer than I would like ~~The ease of removal also means that the fit isn't perfect. There's a barely perceptible amount of extra room, where the Deck can shift slightly inside the case. It's not enough for the Deck to fall out, but I can feel the tiniest bit of movement. ~~If you tend to press the back L4/R4/etc. buttons by pushing up towards the screen (as opposed to "outwards" into the grips), your fingers may run up against the beveled edge of the cutouts. They're not sharp or anything, just "in the way". --With this grip attached, I DO NOT feel comfortable putting the Steam Deck in its original case. The amount of force needed to close the lid over the unit is more than what I would deem reasonable, and while I'm not positive that closing the case is going to damage the Deck, I'm not about to try it and find out.

SUPER light compared to Dbrand and Jsaux Killswitch cases which will make your arms numb laying in bed. The case is the superior option for using original carrying case from valve. And it comes on and off very easily. Skull &Co also make great thumbstick grips for deck. Sold!

Fitment is excellent. I LOVE this grip case! The Steamdeck is pretty comfortable as it is, but the matte plastic surface would sometimes feel a bit slippery. It's like comparing the dualsense vs the dualsense edge, the rubber pieces on the grips make all the difference. Same goes for the Steamdeck, this grip case just makes holding it feel more secure and grippy. It also fits in the oem Steamdeck case, although not perfectly, but it does. I especially love that you can stand the Steamdeck vertically, like a display unit without needing the dock. 10/10 I would recommend this case, hands down.

My husband is happy with this purchase for his Steam Deck. He had a dBrand skin on his Steam Deck when he initially put on this protective case - and while it fit okay, it was not perfectly lined up. Once he took off the skin the case fit much better and he is happy with the fit. Overall the feel is nice and adds some texture to the grips to help hold the Steam Deck. It stands up nicely and doesn't feel like it will easily tip over.

Steam Deck Oled 1 tb için aldım. Çok başarılı bir kılıf. Esnek ve takıp çıkarması çok kolay. Çabuk ve sıkıntısız geldi.

One of the best skins for the steam deck! Tried a few other brands and this by far is the one the works best for me. Comfortable and protective and really nice that it can stand up on a desk without a kickstand.

Niezłe etui, można postawić w pionie po dłuższej krawędzi. Dobrze się trzyma, ledwo wchodzi do oryginalnego case od steam decka ale wchodzi

Ben fatto e resistente

Feels very sturdy and gives solid protection for the Steam Deck. The grips are comfortable and it doesn’t slip. Good choice if you want full coverage.
