Can you charge the Steam Deck with a phone charger?
Yep, you can charge the Steam Deck with a phone charger, but there's a catch. You need to make sure the charger supports USB-C with enough power output to charge the device effectively. Not all phone chargers are created equal, so if you've got one that's powerful enough (ideally 45W or more), you should be able to charge your Steam Deck without any issues. Just don't expect it to charge as fast as the original charger.

No way, using a phone charger is a bad idea. It's like using a water pistol to put out a house fire. Just stick to the charger that came with it or get one that's actually meant for the Steam Deck.
Sure, but slow and steady wins the race. Most phone chargers are USB-C these days, so technically, you can. Just don't be in a hurry.
