A lot better than the original one, but where is my clear front shell? 😑 *If you see this as an ad in the future, I did not do it.* *3-25 Update:* I have contacted 10 people in the comments as part of the giveaway. If you saw a message from me, that means you won. 🙂

Very glad that you've shown off every color on the deck in this video. I wasn't sure which color to pick and every time Jsaux promoted these ahead of time the colors seemed to look different from the last time. (Makes sense as those were mockups and pre-productions) Thinking of going with green as I really like the somewhat turquoise shade here.

I have faith that this is and will continue to be a well supported platform for years to come. The blue color is my favorite as well. followed by the clear, red, purple, green, then brown. I'm excited to get my Deck. Love your content!

Thanks Taki, I was able to switch my order from the original case back to the blue one and I couldn't be happier. I'm glad you showed everyone what all (err, almost all) the other covers looked like. One thing I noticed was the screwdriver in my JSAUX kit was way too small; was a Phillips PH00 I think. All the screws were gripped much better with a Phillips PH1 screwdriver instead. Also, I trimmed that sharp point on my shell by the R1 & L1 buttons. Seems like the original deck case back was just as sharp though. I already have this case back, so please don't pick me in your giveaway. Thanks for the great content!

Thanks for letting us know what was going on, I appreciate the transparency that allows me to understand exactly what is happening to content creators agreeing to deals like this. I plan on starting to create content soon and something like this is enlightening, it helps me to understand what contracts and agreements can have in the fine print (or what they can unlawfully do because they know you signed a contract) and I will be sure to look out for issues like this

Ordered my purple case a week or so ago, glad to see this video! I should probably decide if I'm going to keep the thermal pad on or not, though... Jsaux themselves state on the product page's FAQ section, "It will not affect the original heat dissipation of the Steam Deck. Because the air inlet and outlet of the steam deck heat dissipation are separate heat dissipation pipes, and the thermal grease will not block the heat dissipation channels." But there's real world testing saying otherwise too, and it doesn't help that I'm in a pretty warm country lol

Would result in less waste and be an awesome cost saving option. Certain other companies have offered this for their handhelds...

I saw some of the comments on Jsaux's website about the thermal pad not allowing the case to seat completely. Mine sits just fine, I kind of treated the thermal pad area like a Command strip when putting it back together. I just applied light pressure for 5 seconds or so, and it stayed flush.
