Note: This update is for the Steam Deck Preview channel, and includes new features that are still being tested. You can opt into this in Settings > System > System Update Channel. General Added support for Steam Deck OLED Removed spurious splash screen during reboot and shutdown
Anyone reading this who hasn’t updated yet, I’d avoid updating if you can. It’s broken the fixed colour profile and the boosted vibrancy mode. My deck is back to washed out colours. Didn’t actually realise how well the vibrancy update worked until I lost it lol. Tried switching back to beta and stable etc and nothings working, in fact the colour adjustment option is now just missing from the display setting page entirely. Wait til they fix before updating.
I think by just not clicking apply it should be fine but I don’t know if updates will sometimes automatically apply e.g. after a full shut down and reboot, I usually manually update quite soon after it’s released

How do you avoid updating?
Do you have to switch off the Preview channel or will there be a prompt to upgrade we can simply ignore for now?

It’s still present in ⚙️ Settings › Display › Adjust Display Colors
There’s also a new toggle Use Native Color Temperature under Advanced
Wait, what does ‘Use native color temperature’ do?
