Rules:
That's kind of the point. It's a refresh not a Steam Deck v2. Their intention is not to have everyone replace their deck or make existing users feel like they got the old, bad ones.
It's a refresh, shows that Valve is still committed to the Deck, and also sets some expectations for when the Deck 2 comes. And some perks for those that really want a nicer screen and faster WiFi.
One person bought one less than a month ago, Valve offered them to return it for an OLED or get a store credit.
Try reaching out and see what they say.
i live outside of wherever valve ships to so i had to order mine thru a third-party, so i can't do that.

I bought mine this year, just sold it for a loss, but several months of play was worth what I paid. Can't wait for the new deck to arrive
