Valve's Steam Deck OLED is here but an upgraded Steam Deck 2 is planned for the future.

The Valve Steam Deck OLED is only a minor upgrade from the original model, with a new battery and improved display.
Valve has plans for a more significant upgrade with a Steam Deck 2.0, but it won't be released anytime soon.
Valve is working with game developers to optimise performance on the Steam Deck, and the expectation is that new chips suitable for a handheld device will be available in the next two or three years.
