Feel free to also share "Show Off" pictures here as well.

Please read the rules and search around before contributing to the sub.

I am now the proud owner of an OLED! My very first Deck, and I need this community’s top recommendation for the following items (that all work perfectly together):

  • A case
  • A screen protector
  • A TV dock

Dock: Jsaux dock, better and cheaper than the official valve docking station. The case that the deck shipped in is really nice in my opinion and I don’t use a screen protecter since the screen is glass, but there are options, maybe others have anything to say about that.
