But I like having a warranty and my A button is starting to stick.
Im not sure if this voids the warranty at all, Valve is pretty lenient with it

Huh? Sorry dude I'm an adult; I don't drink soda near electronics. My Deck has had a screen protector and protective case since day 1. I baby my tech. Pretty sure my A button is either defective or prematurely wearing out.
My first steam deck that I returned due to screen bubbles had a sticky B button out of the box. My replacement has a creaky left trigger. Can't win.

In my searching for other people with a sticky A button, the sticky B button is all I could find. Pretty sure I'm going to have to send mine in for repair.
