TL;DR: Valve’s upcoming Steam Machine, set for release in 2026, aims to combine affordability and ease of use. Recent leaks suggest prices around $950 for a 512GB model and $1,070 for 2TB, comparable to high-end devices, though official pricing remains unconfirmed amid memory supply challenges.

    “An iPhone” is such a weird comparison to make.

    In my region I can buy new iPhones from €119 (iPhone SE 32GB) to €2400 (iPhone 17 Pro Max 2TB).

    I hope the steam machine is somewhere in between this range.

      An unconfirmed leak of an estimation puts the price somewhere between 100 and 2500.

      I’m tired boss.

      Yeah, I read the title and had no idea what number to expect. My first thought was 1.5-2k.

      Also, that’s an easy wish right there. It will 100% be somewhere in between those numbers, don’t worry.

        That was my joke.
