Yeah, you can totally leave your Steam Deck plugged in without worrying too much. Just like modern laptops and smartphones, it's designed to handle being plugged in for extended periods. The charging system is smart enough to prevent damage to the battery from overcharging. So, game on without fear!

Absolutely, leaving it plugged in won't summon the tech gremlins to feast on its circuits. Modern devices know how to manage their juice. Just keep an eye on it like you would with any other precious tech.

Leaving it plugged in all the time? Not the best idea. It's fine occasionally, but constantly doing it can eventually wear down the battery. Better to unplug once it hits 100% and plug it back when it's low.

I've had my Steam Deck plugged in for marathon gaming sessions, and it's been totally fine. No issues at all, and it actually makes those long play times more enjoyable without worrying about battery life.
