If say I bought the cheapest variant, could the same type of SSD upgrades fit in it, just as they would the mid and higher tier steamdecks?

    I believe valve suggests not changing the ssd, voids the warranty and all that as well. For me I just got a proper sd card with good stats (A2, class 10, etc.)

    That said, I feel like they should be swappable if you were to get your hands on one of the bigger ssds

      I did this for a while until recently I put in a 2TB SSD and the performance difference is night and day.

      In other words, simply changing SSD doesn’t void warranty, but damaging the Steam Deck in the process of doing so does.
