Does anybody have an idea what this could be?

I’m going to go against the grain and say it’s their VR hardware they’ve been sitting on for years now.
Steam Frame, and then calling glasses “frames” is common. Either case it seems like a bad name, but I’d reckon it’s their VR/AR device.

My guess is a pre-built PC or AR device. Latter is more unlikely since it would substantially overlap with their Index market.

It would be sick if it were VR glasses that could be stand alone, but also be able to tether to a PC for more horse power when needed. This way we wouldn’t be limited to shitty graphics often associated with today’s VR titles.

Consolized gaming PC running SteamOS, perhaps? With how outrageous component prices are these days it would make sense.

new anticheat measure where they frame you for an appropriate crime that will put you in prison for the time period of the effective ban.

I’m guessing this would be Valve Fremont? At least, the name would make sense for what we know about Fremont. From what we can tell, it’s a Steam Machine-like PC, designed for a console-like experience. Runs a Hawk Point APU with its iGPU stripped out, paired with an RX 7600 GPU, iirc

As others have said, we have two upcoming steam hardware devices: VR headset and a new Steam Machine. This is probably one of the two.
My personal guess is it’s the new Steam Machine.

in a comment that was removed from the post, this data was in a decompilaion of steamvr binaries. which implies potentially vr related
i dont know source though. take with grain of salt

Streaming hardware? Presumably like Geforce Now, only the publishers can’t say no.

I keep seeing this post and it just makes me think about a new Warframe that’s just a black suit with the Steam logo on the chest.

Exciting. I’m not interested in a PC but that’d be good if it had a 9060xt in it. Be a good boost to FSR4 adoption and it’d be a nice baseline for AAA games for the normal gamer that just wants plug and play. 1080-1440 native and 4k FSR would be good with that for the newest high end AAA games. If it’s a standalone VR headset, I would likely buy that

My wife said it’s a Samsung Frame TV with SteamOS streaming built in…

While I think such a device is plausible in general, I don’t think Samsung would want to hand a “Frame” related TV trademark to a 3rd party.

See that’s what I was thinking… Plus that isn’t Valves usually MO

would be sick if it was a phone running linux.
i think theyre probably the only company that could make it work.

Technically android is running on Linux, Google’s even adding an official Linux terminal that can run Linux apps.
FreeBooteR69@lemmy.ca 2 months ago
I’d rather have linux than android. I don’t consider them the same thing. If they were we should be able to run android and linux programs interchangeably without middle-wear, but we can’t because they aren’t the same.
