If you go to the store while logged in and click on Steam Deck it’ll tell you the expected delivery date under the one you reserved.

Reserved on Fri, July 16, 2021
Your expected order availability: Q1 2022

The wait is gonna be a killer. I think they would have announced a little later but the switch oled forced their hands on an early reveal.

I wouldn't say forced their hand so much as gave them the perfect opportunity to profit off peoples' disappointment

Just ordered one this morning and my expected delivery is after Q2 2022... I'm in no rush but that's like a years wait

Not really so bad when you consider the first ones aren't even shipping until December.
More like 4 months at best, 6 at worst from the actual launch

its the most anticipated new tech for me this year i went for the 512gb but would be happy with the 256gb version if i got it earlier than the expected delivery time of Q2 2022

i wonder if they will offer customers who went for the 512gb the 256gb if they have stock and can deliver that sooner.

Valve sponsoring OcUK these days? I notice that some of the posts questioning Valve's commitment to their hardware releases (cough Steam Machines cough) have been silently purged from the thread. I expect this one will be too

i haven't noticed anything being deleted why would OCUK do this

i'm looking forward to the launch even if i won't get it until june 2022 lol

Explains why they decided to nix the Steam Controller and Steam Link. (Which reminds me, I need to get another Controller.)

They didn't. I'm a colossal idiot. Nothing to see here.

Pre-ordered the 256gb one, but just bought a Zephyrus rog g14... Not sure I'll go ahead with it now

i think a lot of people will do the same between now and when the device is launched. People will buy other gadgets want other things at christmas and if the delivery date for most of us is Q1 2022 will the hype wear off after december.

enjoy your new laptop
