No dead pixels, no sub pixel weird colorations, just a totally fine normal Steam Deck with a fun color way. If you’re an owner of the LE waiting for it to arrive, freaking out about it because you’re seeing all the issues here, fear not there is a good chance your Deck is going to be fine.
Where did you get 3 week lead time from?
Well, it takes:
2 days for RMA Approval and Label
10 days via UPS to travel to them
3 days for Processing
6 days for shipping of replacement unit
That would be 21-Days, keep in mind that you should not count Sundays as it doesn’t seem like the Steam Deck moved on Sunday at all (when first being shipped to me nor when being returned for replacement). Idk if their warehouse is open on Saturdays or Sundays, which might affect delivery, shipping, and processing.
Rma went in on Saturday, got a reply Sunday, package went out on Monday, is scheduled for delivery at steam tomorrow. Not sure how long the RMA processing will take, so we’ll see but 3 weeks seems fairly exaggerated. Granted I’m in the US, so international I could maybe see 3 weeks, but I would still expect between 2-3 weeks then.
