Get a 512GB Samsung Pro Plus for £36

I like theSteam Deckbut its storage options don’t really reflect the grand-scale gigabyte munching that modern PC games indulge in. An addedmicroSD cardfeels very much like a necessity, and in the UK,Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Dayssale is knocking 50% off one of the best.

Thebest, in many ways. The Samsung Pro Plus was never the most costly prospect in expandable storage, but even so, it aced my game loading benchmarks when I began group-testing microSDs. Out of all the many Deck-ready options that are on sale today and tomorrow – and you can find more in ourAmazon Prime Big Deal Days Steam Deck accessory deal guide– this one is worthy of being your first choice, especially if you go for the 512GB model. Not that there’s anything technically wrong with the 256GB Pro Plus, but as with desktopSSDs, it’s usually best to get as much capacity as your budget allows.
