tomtoc Armor Case for Steam Deck/OLED, Steam Deck Hard Shell, Slim Portable Travel Carry Case, Shock-proof, Charging Convenience, with Military Grade Protection, Protective Cover

I love flying with my steam deck, but the stock case was always too bulky to reasonably pack with how light I prefer to travel, and didn’t feel safe enough. This case was the perfect solution. The molded backing eliminates the dead space from the stock case, and having a proper hard shell with joystick protection means I can chuck my deck directly in my bag. After a few weeks of traveling with it, I can say this is was the right one to get.

This thing is absolutely amazing. It’s super secure and keeps out tidy toddler fingers. I absolutely love how it makes traveling with the Deck so much easier as I’ve been using the official case and it takes up a lot of room in my bag. The charging port is such a great convenience too, I love it.It’s difficult to open and it felt really scary opening and closing it at first, but I’ve had no issues yet with damage.No issues with joystick grips on at all. Fits inside perfectly with them on.My only negative feedback is it adds quite a bit of weight to the deck but I personally don’t find that too much of a problem.

As others have noted, the device fits really well, but closing the latch to secure the case is absurdly loud and difficult to engage.The case is very sturdy, and absolutely could not be any smaller. If you are traveling, this will keep the Steam Deck safe. The open charging port is a nice addition.R

Phenomenal. Wish i had ordered it sooner for travel. Seems sturdy, protective, and much smaller than the case the deck comes with.

Great fit for the Steam Deck with the Skull&Co caps! Definitely a good investment to protect my Deck during travel. But I usually keep my Deck in this case when not in use just for peace of mind.Mine got a little too hot when I tried charging while in the case, but I’m not taking a star for that.

The case included with my steam deck is too large to stuff in my small backpack, and I didn't want to risk damaging the joysticks on my deck, so I grabbed this to keep the volume down while still keeping some protection for the joysticks/buttons. The size is perfect to tetris my 100Wh portable power bank between the handles so that it takes up minimal room in my bag.It's nice that you can plug the deck in to charge while the case is closed, but be careful opening the case with a cable plugged in, as it will pinch the cable and this could damage your deck's Type-C port. A bigger notch cutout would still provide protection for the deck's screen and could prevent this issue. (Alternatively, just don't be a clumsy oaf like me.)I also kinda wish there were some cutouts for the vents, that way I could keep the deck plugged in and charging while it was on/doing updates, but hey, this thing does its job.As a bonus, when opened up, unfolded, and with the deck removed, it's the perfect size to act as a lap-protector for my 14 inch gaming laptop, keeping the bottom vents nice and clear while resting on my legs. Didn't expect this extra benefit, but I'll take it!Overall a good product, would recommend to others.

The perfect case. It protects your Steamdeck from getting crushed, protects the joysticks from getting mashed, and takes up very little room in my bag. I also like that you can charge the Steamdeck through the hole in the case. The click is loud when it snaps shut, which can be annoying, but how often are you snapping the thing open and shut. I'm leaving a review because my steamdeck slipped behind a mechanical chair on an airplane and I absolutely crushed the case. Somehow the steamdeck inside was completely unscathed. It is sleek and practical, just don't expect hard impacts like drops to be protected.

Really solid case! It definitely protects the steam deck well, I like how it has extra room for the joysticks so that they don't get mushed around in a bag or something. And, it's a lot less bulky than the carrying case that the steam deck comes with.
