I noticed the back of my steam deck feeling uneven yesterday. Opened it up to find a spicy pillow inside.
Replacement is underway, but I’m gonna remove this one now, already. Wish me luck…

I just went to ifixit’s website and ordered the battery. Ordered it on sunday night, according to my tracking app it has just been delivered, so no long waiting times.
Maybe it depends on your region? It’s in stock on the german website.
Must be regional then. I noticed that my shell isn’t completely flat after seeing your post and now I’m obviously very concerned.
I’ve reached out to Steam Support atleast, hopefully they can directly sell me one, or point me somewhere that I’m not buying one off Amazon but this should likely be replaced asap…
When did you get your steam deck? Mines an original Q3 an curious if this is something common for our 2 year old devices?
Probably a good idea to quickly pop it open and have a look at the battery. Opening the steam deck is quite easy (remember to remove the SD card!), It only takes 3 minutes to check :)
From what I understand, iFixit is their official partner, valves support website directed me towards that as well.
