However, some of the extras of this case are a little awkward.
Installing and removing the hardcover feels odd.
If you have aSteam Deck, you know it’s one of thebest gaming handheldson the market today.
The hard cover slides on over the StylthGrip case to protect the Steam Deck in transit.
Of course, as with any gear, having the best Steam Deck accessories can significantly improve your experience.
As such, I’m always looking for new gear and peripherals.
While the StylthGrip does improve the Steam Deck experience overall, it also adds some awkwardness.

30, 2023, but preorders are currently open.
I specifically reviewed the StylthGrip Bundle, which includes multiple things in addition to the StylthGrip case.
It’s available in black or transparent red.
Preorders are currently open, and it launches onOctober 30, 2023.
The vents and buttons along the top and bottom are still very visible while in the StylthGrip case.
This all comes in a tin box.
However, once on, it’s meant to stay on, so it’s harder to remove.
What’s more, the case can be used in the official Steam Deck dock.
Rubber pads for the back buttons come with the StylthGrip Bundle and can be applied for better grip.
Satisfye StylthGrip: What I don’t like
My biggest problems with the StylthGrip Bundle are two-fold.
This is a little odd as it takes more work than usual to get the thumb grips in place.
Additionally, one of the thumb grips is taller than the other one.
I’d prefer they were the same height.
The other issue I have is that the hardcover is too bulky.
Plus, it has a shoulder strap for easy carry.
Two thumb grips are included with the StylthGrip, but they won’t stay in place unless you put the included RYZEN Pads on the joysticks first.
Satisfye StylthGrip: Should you buy it?
If you want to save money, you should look for a different grip option that costs less.
This is due to its textured rubber material, which prevents the Steam Deck from sliding around.
The StylthGrip comes in a tin box filled with foam padding.
It also looks nice and doesn’t detract from the design of the Steam Deck.
However, I can’t fully recommend everything that comes in the more expensive StylthGrip Bundle.
There are both RYZEN Pads and thumb grips included in the package.
Tomtoc Arccos–G-47 travel bag works great to transport the Steam Deck and its accesories.
This is a bit awkward and takes more work than is usually expected for thumb grip installment.
Additionally, it felt a little straining to install and remove the hardcover from the StylthGrip.
So, if that’s an important aspect to you, then the bundle might be worth it.
The StylthGrip has openings to accommodate all of the vents and buttons on the Steam Deck.
It comes in black or transparent red and launches on Oct. 30, 2023.
Preorders are now open.
Plus, it all comes in a tin box filled with fitted padding to keep it all safe.
