Okay friends, let’s check who has a Samsung OLED panel, and who has the BOE OLED panel inside his Deck.

Steps to check:

  1. Go to Desktop mode

  2. Open Konsole

  3. Paste the following command into the terminal:

cat /sys/class/drm/card0-eDP-1/edid | hexdump -C

You will get the output like in this screenshot:

The marked number is relevant and means the following:

01: 800x1280 @59.998545 (BOE, LCD)

02: No longer present

03: 800x1280 @90.003892 (Samsung, OLED)

04: 800x1280 @90.061454 (BOE, OLED)

So my results are:

Model: Steam Deck 512GB OLED

Panel: Samsung OLED

What’s yours? Please also don’t forget to post the model, so we can analyze if there’s some correlation.

    I have a 1TB Standard Edition OLED. Samsung panel (code 03), and I have a green stuck pixel in the top left corner of the screen as well as a line of brighter pixels on the right side of my panel. Talking to support to see if I can get the unit swapped or the panel replaced.

        Absolutely sure mine is a Samsung panel, assuming the OP is correct. The hex code matches what the OP says should be Samsung.
