But if you are still eagerly waiting for your email to come through, there\u2019s good news: Valve says<\/a> it\u2019s \u201cramping up\u201d Steam Deck shipments, sending more order emails every week, and \u201csometimes\u201d plans to send them twice per week. <\/p>\n Welcome to Q2! We’ve just sent out the first set of order emails to Q2 reservers (in order of reservation time). Starting today we’re ramping up Steam Deck shipments, and will be sending more order availability emails every week. Sometimes even twice a week! pic.twitter.com\/54TAoCQXfd<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Steam Deck (@OnDeck) April 4, 2022<\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n Valve had alluded to the possibility of a ramp-up. \u201cIn production terms, [production] will ramp very quickly,\u201d Valve\u2019s Lawrence Yang said in a February interview with IGN<\/em><\/a>. \u201cIn the first month \u2014 very quickly \u2014 we\u2019ll be in the tens of thousands. By the second month, we\u2019ll be in the hundreds of thousands. And beyond that, it will grow even quicker.\u201d Hopefully, those estimates are still in line with what we can possibly expect for the production of new units.<\/p>\n It\u2019s unclear if the increased production will cause order estimates on the Steam Deck website<\/a> to move up or if current estimates already reflect the planned ramp, and Valve didn\u2019t immediately respond to a request for clarification. (Selfishly, I\u2019m wondering this because I\u2019d really like to place my estimated Q3 order sooner.)<\/p>\n If you are lucky enough to order your own Steam Deck, you should know that you might run into some bugs or issues with the device, though Valve is pushing frequent updates to fix things. If you want to get an idea of what to expect, check out my colleague Sean Hollister\u2019s review<\/a> and one month later FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
