The anti glare etched glass is exclusive to the 512GB model - for whatever reason. I can't imagine it costing that much more to produce and I wish they'd have just put it on every model.

- robbiet480 4y agoThat’s what I was trying to say but lacked coffee. Fixed now.
- klausa 4y agoI wish they just made it an option to choose — I hate the matte effect, but I want the model with most storage. If I used my Deck more than I actually do, I'd genuinely consider getting the 256GB model and upgrading the storage, just to get the glossy screen.
- dihydro 4y agoIt's definitely not a matte screen, but a coating that cuts the worst of the glare. Kind of like a decent phone screen. Of course, I just wanted the storage, and then I put a glass screen protector on right away, making the glare even worse... Here is a blog post that shows the differences most realistically to my perception of it. https://www.louis993546.com/steam-deck-notes/ https://www.louis993546.com/steam-deck-notes/
- klausa 4y agoSure, whatever, I still dislike what it does to the sharpness and colors of the screen. It's not like Deck has a great DPI or brightness to begin with, but the matte coating makes it even worse.
