Steam Deck Mod: Meet the Minimalist Steam Brick
Want the ultimate in Steam Deck portability? Meet the Steam Brick, a radical mod by Crastinator-pro that redefines handheld gaming minimalism.
What is the Steam Brick?
This isn’t your average Steam Deck customization. Crastinator-pro has taken the handheld and stripped it down to its core components. Gone are the screen, controls, and even the battery. The result? A tiny, lightweight device designed for use with external displays, such as a TV or AR glasses.
The modder cleverly housed the remaining electronics in a custom 3D-printed case. The Steam Brick boasts only the most essential features: a USB port for connection and a power button.
Why this Mod Matters
For those who primarily use their Steam Deck for gaming on larger screens, the Steam Brick offers an incredibly portable solution. It eliminates the bulk of the original device while maintaining full gaming functionality, maximizing portability for those who prioritize using it in a connected setup.
