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.

    Just checked my SteamDeck OLED 512GB ,

    /03 under DRM so SAMSUNG one , No Dead Pixel

    kinda weird they stuff the LE with the BOE , i messed up with a BOE VA 15,6" Aftermarket Laptop screen years ago , look great first but 4 dead pixels in the next few days :(

    Go for the 512 if you can ! The screen is perfect , courage les gars and sorry for the frenchi english ;p
