Targeting the Steam Deck OLED in CSS
Device-specific media queries are brittle — a new model with the same width will not match. Use them for genuine per-device fixes only, and prefer width buckets for layout.
/* Target Steam Deck OLED specifically */
@media only screen
and (device-width: 1280px)
and (device-height: 800px)
and (-webkit-device-pixel-ratio: 1) {
/* … */
}
/* More useful in practice — the width bucket it falls into */
@media (min-width: 1280px) { /* … */ }

The Steam Deck OLED has a 7.4-inch display. In CSS the viewport measures 1280 × 800 px in portrait, and the panel itself has 1280 × 800 physical pixels at 204 PPI.
What resolution should I design for on the Steam Deck OLED?
Design at 1280 × 800 and export assets at 1×. That gives you 1280 × 800 px images, which is exactly what the panel renders. Designing directly at 1280 × 800 means every measurement is 1 times larger than the CSS values you will write.
