I’m currently use the kill switch on the lcd model but with the LE deck I’d like to keep it naked and prefer the feeling but I’m nervous lol. Anyone ever scratch/ damage the body of the deck without using a case?

I run my deck “bare back” only have a screenprotector on the screen. Honestly dont care for the scuffs and scratches,i think it gives the deck more character.
People use cases on their deck? I kinda thought that was a gimmick.
My OG Steamdeck has the killswitch case/cover. No case/cover for my LE OLED.
I have had my 512GB LCD for 15 months. It’s been used at home, on a plane, a bus, in an automobile, at work, and in hotels. It has no case nor even a screen protector. All I do is put it back in a zip up case, align the included cloth with the screen, zip it up and toss and in a backpack.
Originally I used the included case for that, but now I use the Tomtoc slim case. It’s similar in thickness to the insert for the 1TB OLED models, maybe a little thinner.
I can show photos of my LCD model, but it has zero blemishes at all. No scratches on the screen, nor scuffs on the body. With everything off the only visible difference to my brand new OLED model is the color of the joysticks.
No, you don’t need a case. Just put it back in a zip up case whenever it’s not in use. That’s all we have done to both our LCDs (my wife’s is at 13 months now) and they have been perfectly fine.
Appreciate the detailed reply. I think I’m gonna go for it and keep it naked. It really does feel so much better in hand, and I’m loving how light the OLED model is !
