I’m considering getting a silicone cover for the steamdeck I’ve just ordered.

I was wondering how snug the fit is with the official carrying case. Would I need to remove the Yono silicone cover to carry it in the steam carry case?

I received the Steamdeck and tried it on, it fits in the case with the sleeve ✅

Thanks for your feedback 🙏

I can't directly answer the question, as I don't use one. But I would like to mention that I put on a pair of joystick caps which are frankly pretty thin layers of silicon all things considered, and now the Deck won't fit inside the case unless I firmly hold it closed and then pull the zipper.

The case is designed to fit it very snugly, it would seem! But third-party cases usually have more give inside for covers and joystick caps etc.

Thanks!

I had a look at 3rd party cases and there’s one that stands out: https://www.bol.com/nl/p/beschermhoes-geschikt-voor-valve-steam-deck-hoes-case-eva-foam/9300000165397514?referrer=socialshare_pdp_iphoneapp

A lot of the other cases have a zip to stuff your charger on top of the screen, ouch 😣

I have silicone caps, and my OLED Deck fits just fine in the official case. Dunno what kind the person above is using, but mine are the ones from PlayVital.

It's not that snug.
