yeah, they know us very well, we don't want the steam deck to play outside the house, is to be used in the bathroom at 3PM after waking up late

[@mesmerwolf0]

Just got my killswitch case today. It went on easily. I actually didn't even need the hairdryer for my skins. I'll admit my jaw dropped when the video reached the part about the SD storage, I had no idea that was there when I bought the case. The case feels great in my hands and the stick covers are wonderful. Also loving the stylish boxes you folks shipped them in, I'm a bit of a sucker for that.🙂

[@robertstimmel1100]

I just got mine today, too. I ordered it so long ago that I forgot until I got an email today saying that it was delivered. Nice surprise!

[@toxiclife6553]

Glad to here I wasn't the only one enjoying the presentation/packaging of the case. Definitely a sucker for that kinda thing too. It really just brings the quality up so much more.

[@mattrobbins1237]

So how well has your skin held up considering you didn't use a hair dryer? Thanks in advance if you have the time to answer that question..I get my case Friday but don't have a hair dryer.

[@mesmerwolf0]

@@mattrobbins1237 The skin has held up pretty well to be honest no signs of wear for me at all, looks as if I slapped it on yesterday. 😀

[@randommcranderson5155]

unfortunately I've completely run out of sentry turrets for the trackpad skin application.

[@StefanR]

I was sad to lose the magnet, but I like the new design and how it locks/clicks into place. Just got my replacement case. Great customer service and job with replacing the faulty item on top of letting us keep the original case. I hope I can buy the cover I totally forgot to order originally.

[@RobotKitsune]

I absolutely love their humor. Excellent tutorial, too. Had me chucklin'

[@robertfernandez3746]

what is the extra little part that came with it? I can't tell where it could possibly fit. Not the usbc extender

[@robertfernandez3746]

forgot to update: it's just something that lets it fit properly with the official steam deck dock, if u dont have a dock u have no use for it yet

[@HEADSHOTPROLOL]

@@robertfernandez3746 aaah makes sense I was really confused for a min there, thanks :)

[@cmdrmatt2305]

the binary code on the underside of the attachment point says "F*ck magnets"

[@jmssun]

Magnet is awesome

[@Boyley]

Received mine today in the UK, great bit of kit and already recommended it to a couple of my friends. My only gripe is that I wish the travel cover had a soft fleece/velvet lining on the inside. When your putting it on the bottom of the travel case hits the screen until you pry it outwards and click it into place

[@ethancrosby2573]

I agree and considering the inside of the case already had this it seems like a no brainer for the cover too have it too

[@DirkMcThermot]

Great video and I'm very happy with the results! I made one slight mistake causing part of the skin to have a wrinkle, but the case covers it up more than enough. The stick grips are also a much bigger improvement than I had anticipated.

[@GiuseppeH2O.]

hi I bought the cover but it tells me so Some or all of the items in your cart are currently on preorder or backorder. Once all items from your order are in stock (Q1 2023), your order contents will ship together. We'll email you with shipping details as soon as your order has left our warehouse. How many days should I wait before it arrives home? in Italy ? many weeks? not available yet? thank you

[@lennchadful]

yoooooo... the micro SD card slot ia an amazing addition. thanks man

[@KingBrandonm]

I literally have 5 microSD cards, 4 1TB, and 1 512GB so the 4 extra slots are a really nice addition. Mine just came in this morning

[@MassimoRough]

What's on those cards though?

[@pogchamp4542]

Those micro sds worth combined are worth more than the deck 💀

I was fine and laughed at the trackpad installation "guide", but I feel personally attacked after she said "on the off chance that you leave your house". XD

[@RefrigeratedTP]

"then, dry it faster (dummy)" LOL I love it

[@BadmanxlUltraWideGaming]

Hi! I preordered since many months, when we will receive it ? All influencer talking about Steam Deck have it, but when we pay for it, nothing. Com’on guys! Ps : one question, once the killswitch is put on the Steam Deck, I guess it can no longer be docked in the official Dock. A solution will be provided with or it will be necessary to manage either even by tinkering?

[@KingBrandonm]

It got delayed because they had to redesign the kickstand and retool their machines for the new design, i just got mine this morning

[@NinjaHamsters101]

I have the Project Killswitch case (preordered since September I believe), and definitely you will have an issue with docking the Steam Deck with the case in installed, so two methods that I can suggest are: 1: Remove the case from your Steam Deck whenever you use a Steam Deck Dock product or similar size (especially official). or 2: Try looking into third party docking products that have a more expansive slot for Steam Deck installed accessories (JSAUXs's Steam Deck dock is one that I use and seems to work for me just fine with dbrand's accessories). So you may want to seek out for some Steam Deck Dock recommendation videos or reviews, Retro Game Corps KZbin channel has a good review video for this topic. The URL link below will lead you to that mentioned video... kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2PHZmqjhbuJbNk

[@HEADSHOTPROLOL]

I just got a little extra plastic piece with this revised version of the case, and this piece is apparently specifically to help fit the Deck with the case on in the offical dock, so apparently shouldn't be an issue anymore? Don't have the dock to test with tho

[@Milkex]

ayyy, thanks! I used my soldering heat gun set to 130F!

[@MoistCrumpet]

Even though the kit I bought cost me quite a lot, it was definitely well worth it. The case is really good quality and the kickstand that came with it is really good. The corners of my skin didn’t exactly come out perfect even with a hair dryer, but at least the case does a great job covering up the creases. It’s probably a skill issue because the skin is really great quality.

[@keaton_m]

I don't even have a steamdeck, I'm just here for the fun of it lol

[@itzdcx]

I don't even have a Kill switch but I do have a Seemdeck I'm watching for the fun of it

[@SnortSnout64]

How do you uninstall the old killswitch case?

[@DanielRedgrave]

I dunno, maybe watch the video in reverse or something

[@Goalier95]

So does this mean my pre-order is in production and will soon be shipping out?

[@Viesta]

yep

[@qilqilqil8863]

@@heathkish6901 wish i did.

[@Xaxxus]

Sadly the kill switch doesn’t work with the official dock. Surprisingly enough, the little nubs on the bottom fit the dock just fine. It’s the cutout around the usb port that blocks the official dock

[@overoula]

it works if you buy the adapter they sell for the official dock

[@ozzi9816]

Applied a skin, realized the b button was jamming on the right side, and when i took it off to fix it the skin was completely warped and I couldn’t reapply it. “This will be easy” sure. The fact that they only give you one of each makes putting them on incredibly stressful

[@w.jordan1736]

Same problem

[@XLumbar]

I had the exact same problem. I wish they would send multiple of each piece considering the unholy amount the skins cost for what they are.

[@azuraug8693]

For the trackpad skins, does this require you to adjust the sensitivity somewhere after installing?

[@taylorjohnston8936]

This video is super entertaining

[@vla.design]

Great except the plastic travel cover that scratches the triggers. Should have done it out of rubber.

[@AndrewStottisTheIndiWerWlf]

The sass is wonderful

[@MantequillaMe]

Will you be making skins for the killswitch?

[@Varnage]

I wish they would sale skins for your steam Deck without having to buy a full skin cover. Like left and right front sticker for half off. I want teardown cover but dont want to spend $50 on a skin that wont be able to be seen

[@Varnage]

edit: found out you can buy these two sides by them self, located underr preorder button there an small text saying if you dont need a killswittch case. Would have purchased some skins along time ago

[@Varnage]

its comes out $15-18 for two set sticker for teardown

[@SCHAAAD]

I probably won’t leave my house with this but I have children so this is a god send

[@blackbirdpctech]

The perfect case for my Steam Deck !!

[@ameteuraspirant]

Where do I buy the add on that makes me good at applying skins and screen protectors?

[@kotta8kritter]

Si anybody else having issues with the touch sensor when the stick grips are on? I’ve seen a couple of post in Reddit about it but it doesn’t seem dbrand has provided a fix or an official response yet.

[@RefrigeratedTP]

10:56 why is it a jeep though

[@DaRadicalCavy]

Can't wait to get mine. The skin came today but still waiting on the case to ship. No idea why wasted money and carbon sending just the skin to UK either as no point putting on until have case as just looks odd & increases chance of damage if do

[@rixas20]

Stick grips: "find the difference between this picture and this picture. They are the same picture"

[@pir_hana]

this is cool, only complaint I have is that the case blocks the docking port so you can't really dock it if you wanted to, other than that it's alright

[@o-w-f_9873]

They sell an adapter to make the deck fit in the dock with the case on

[@pir_hana]

@O-W-F_ unfortunately, my dumbass didn't think about getting the dock adaptor while buying the damn thing, though I can still buy it separately so it's not all bad

[@Way2Close]

i like it all but i feel a bit ripped off that they wont send out oled thumb grips when it was part of the price

[@SLASHERamc]

I just got mine in today, and they didn't give me the track pads

[@chriskrisxtinct]

Watching this even though I don't have a steam deck nor planning to buy one 💀

[@MrandMrsQuack]

I'd buy one but it's not dock compatible

[@harper3579]

Mine will be here Monday alont with a 1tb from sabrent.... It's gonna be a good week.

[@jonathandias2292]

I wish dbrand had developed something similar for the PS Vita 😞😔

[@robjsmiles]

Quirky marketing aside it feels pretty good in the hands to me, which is kind of the main important thing. Making it look cool is a bonus. Looking forward to the inevitable attachable battery pack.

[@eleven9286]

I love their marketing. The robots have hypnotized me with their mechanical charisma

[@MrSiraque]

You guys need to ad a warning for the white steam deck version as my turned yellow from applying heat to it 😢

[@ElitheLionn]

Same thing happened, wiped the plastic with wet wipes and cleaned the yellow on it, not all of it tho.

[@matthewbricker5536]

2 questions I'm hoping can be answered here, thinking about grabbing this myself: 1. Is there any way to order the case skins by themselves if I decided I want to change things up? 2. Would it hurt anything to use the full skins with this, understanding that there's a lot that would be covered by the case? Any answers would be appreciated.

[@TheDoomys]

Yes, just go to their site

[@mitchib1440]

I'm late, but just in case anyone else wants to know - Yes the case skins can be ordered separately. And yes you can use a full size skin with it, but note that it will be a more snug fit depending on the thickness of the skin.

[@AZACKAL]

So wait does this mean the redone version without magnets is being shipped out? If so i didnt get an email like i did when it was sending the first version out before recall

[@joshramirez3653]

Instead of email I got a txt message from the carrier for shipment confirmation. Not sure if this applies to everyone.

[@Devills_hill]

Does it still fit in the case with this condom?

[@Cavemanheartrock]

now my question is, since I got the "free" non magnet case. Why did it come with a usb c male to usb c female adapter and what is this weird plastic piece it came with?

[@MantequillaMe]

Steams dock USB C won't work with the case. That's why they gave you that piece.

[@ZombieRofl]

Nice hands.

[@megumin1407]

The skin was really flimsy to apply and was never able to get it applied without the Crocks....

[@offsetpixel]

Instructions unclear, trackpad stickers are on the turret.

[@itzdcx]

😂😂😂nice

[@pangtundure]

[@Clarkzer0]

Does it fuck up my steam deck this time or did you make a functional product?

[@AZACKAL]

Well no magnets this time. I actually stuck a deck mate adapter to the back of my original kill switch to avoid worrying about the magnets part. Depending on what future adapters d brand relases. I may or may not use the new one 🤔

[@hccdgvvfccdgn993]

Would buy but apparently it makes the Deck too fat to fit into the deck dock.

[@elzen2196]

lol

[@elzen2196]

just buy a usb c adapter

[@Viesta]

they're releasing a Dock adapter kit for the killswitch... so if that's the only thing stopping you then i hope this was good news.

[@Ethan-Sailer]

The new Killswitch case includes an adapter to make it fit as well as a usbc extender. I have both the new and old case and the new mounting mechanism is much more sturdy and the dock adapter snaps on surprisingly well too.

[@Viesta]

@@Ethan-Sailer the dock adapter snaps on? wasn't expecting that.
