Isn’t Steam Frame run in SteamOS made for ARM chip?
While there likely won’t be a steam phone, it technically exists as of now.

Not sure I follow… A steam frame isn’t a phone. It can’t make or receive phone calls

What the other comment said. Since Valve is already half way there with their Steam Frame version of SteamOS(which run on ARM architecture, where phone and tablet also use) and Linux phone iirc do exists, it’s only a matter on how much futher Valve wanna go. So as of now they “technically” already have half a steam phone.

I think what they meant is that the technology exists since steam frame is an ARM based device it’s just a matter of running it on different hardware and adding firmware support for things like phone calls and touch screens.

It only lacks a modem tho.
It’s a few gens back top of the line snapping turtle (Snapdragon), 16 giggies of ram, a battery, two LCDs, a bunch of cameras, and it runs Linux (SteamOS of unknown openness).
