First I’ve heard of this, glad Valve does such a good job with warranty coverage.

Shit. I’ll need to check mine tonight. Hopefully, it’s not too late to loosen the screws!
Edit: mine is still good. I haven’t loosened the screws yet, though…
Just checked my limited edition oled model and on the back left center screw there is a small about 2mm crack in the fashion of the photos, no signs anywhere else.
Unsurprisingly, some of the posts about this have been removed by the subreddit moderators. That post also originally had a message from the automod that it was removed because it was in violation of rule 7 for posting “intentional misinformation” due to the “developing a very common issue” in the title, but they have since decided to remove that comment as well - didn’t restore the post though.
I don’t check the Deck subreddit very often since I left over the API charges, but the last time I did the subreddit was up in arms over moderation issues. Main complaint at the time looked to be that the mods weren’t removing posts that were unrelated to the deck, so it’s weird to now hear that they’re removing stuff that is deck related.
Shit, now I have to check mine
I just went to check and yes ours is cracked 🥲
