Repairing a Valve Steamdeck with Upgraded Thumbsticks
Are you an avid gamer? Then you probably know how frustrating it can be when your gaming device gets damaged. We must say, being SD fans ourselves that these are built very well indeed and we have been impressed so far, accidents do happen though. That's what happened to one of our customers, Sam, who accidentally knocked his Valve Steamdeck off the side of his sofa.
The impact caused one of the thumbsticks to come out and become damaged.
Luckily, Sam contacted us and we were able to offer him a cost effective solution. As this was accidental damage then it wasn't something that would be covered under warranty from Valve, although every single customer that we interact with, we do mention that they do have warranty available if it is something that has genuinely failed on the SD as it is the only fair thing to do! Even then, some customers opt for our speed of repair over a free warranty repair as we offer 12 months warranty on all of our repairs.
We gave him the option of getting a genuine like-for-like replacement part, or upgrading both thumbsticks to new and improved aftermarket electro-magnet hall effect joysticks.
He opted for the upgrade, and sent his device to us for repair. Within just three days, we had the Steamdeck repaired, re-callibrated, tested thoroughly and returned to a happy customer.
At our repair center, we have a team of highly skilled technicians who are experienced in repairing all kinds of gaming devices. We use only genuine parts or high-quality aftermarket parts that are compatible with the original device. In this case, we upgraded the thumbsticks to a more advanced and durable type, giving our customer an even better gaming experience.
