Valve’s Steam Frame handheld is finally available for purchase, but customers are reacting with confusion to an unusual omission: the power supply is sold separately.
An Unusual Choice
Unlike most consumer electronics that include a power adapter in the box, Valve’s Steam Frame requires users to purchase a compatible power supply separately. This decision has left many potential buyers scratching their heads, especially since the handheld costs a significant amount.
Community Reaction
Gamers have taken to forums to express their frustration, with many pointing out that this adds to the total cost of ownership. Others are defending Valve, suggesting the move allows users to use existing power adapters they already own.
