    I think the real question here is, what will the exhaust vent smell like? Have they improved on the aroma?

        They’re half kidding but yes, it’s a thing.

        New Steam Deck has a “new electronics” smell coming out of the vents that is stronger than most devices.

        I own a Steam Deck and I’m not even sure what people are talking about with it, I’ve not really smelled anything coming from mine (which would probably have me more worried than delighted), but apparently it’s a thing amongst some owners.
