If say I bought the cheapest variant, could the same type of SSD upgrades fit in it, just as they would the mid and higher tier steamdecks?

I’m wanting to buy a steam deck, but I wonder how close they are to releasing an updated version. Is there any indication that they will be doing regular hardware updates on it?

They've been making steady revisions and improvements to the hardware since it was released. Better buttons, better acoustics on the fan, new heat shield, etc.

There's no way to know when the next hardware revision will be, but if you buy it now you'll be getting a pretty great piece of hardware that has had all the major kinks worked out.

Thanks for the info. I think I’m mostly be playing emulators on it. But I can spend more money on joycons a that break so easily.
