Valve's Steam Deck is now shipping, bringing some console-level gaming performance to the palm of your hands. Its a malleable and powerful mobile PC, letting you enjoy your entire Steam Library on the go through its effortless SteamOS layer on top of a Linux installation. Although there are some rough edges, we loved our time with the handheld, which you can read more about in our Steam Deck review.

To get the most out of the Steam Deck, however, you'll need a few accessories to go along with it. That's especially true if you want to expand the limited on-board storage, with a range of microSD cards offering cheap and easy expansion. If you're connecting the Steam Deck to an external display, you might want a feature-rich USB-C hub and third-party controller too, of which there are many options. Here's our list of the best Steam Deck accessories you can grab once your handheld PC arrives.

Best microSD Cards for Steam Deck

The Steam Deck supports storage expansion via its single microSD slot, and in out review we found that it works well compared to the speed of the internal SSD (or much slower eMMC memory in the 64GB version). In our testing we used an older SanDisk UHS-I MicroSD, which means faster cards might yield far better results. So, depending on whether you want super fast loading times or just the best capacity for your buck, your options for the best microSD cards will differ.
