I saw the post from a month ago about a wifi upgrade to the Deck. Does any know when the deck with wifi 6e will probably be released? I want to buy a steam deck but if the deck with wifi upgrade will take more than 6 months to release than I’ll buy the deck now but if it’s less than 6 months I’ll probably wait. I’m in Australia so we don’t have the deck officially here. Just 3rd party sellers. Also is wifi/bluetooth the only upgrades? If so I don’t mind paying somebody to upgrade the wifi chip later on.

    Why in earth is the idea of a future potential WiFi upgrade reason to delay?

    While WiFi 6E is likely to boost top transfer speeds, those are plenty fast already. The main draw of WiFi 6E for the Deck is probably the better latency, which should improve performance while game streaming wirelessly.
