Hey fyi and for posterity, on SteamDeck I have the same issue and the cause is the same as outlined above (modern standby). I would love to hear more from folks who don't have this out of the box. The fix is simple but I have to wonder why it's not set by default https://github.com/nazar256/publications/blob/main/guides/steam-deck-hibernation.md https://github.com/nazar256/publications/blob/main/guides/st... Ideally the Steamdeck would come with hibernation after timeout and FDE enabled by default, but it doesn't. Still love it, and I'm glad/grateful it's open enough to enable these features on my own

Thank you for that link! And yes, I'm surprised they don't do something like this out of the box. I really love my Steam Deck overall and I agree, the ability to tweak and enable these features really make it an amazing product. Especially in comparison to my Switch 2 which is great but 100% locked down.

No sleep battery drain issues on my OLED model. Stock OS. Got it a few months ago.

  Can't agree on it. For whatever reason my deck OLED do have this issue. Do you use SDcard btw? Since it's really the only difference from a stock device.

    I don't. I also have the highest end model FWIW.

      BTW after making some research apparently OLED's could be waken up by Bluetooth devices and recently they added option to disable this: https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/188jgd7/howto_selectively_disable_wakeonbluetooth_for/ https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/188jgd7/howto_se...

Interesting to see this is so variable. I got a Steam Deck OLED a few months ago. I haven't changed the standby behaviour at all. I can get a bit less than a week of standby + a few hours of gaming out of the box. Currently, my deck is on 52% charge after last charging it 4 days ago and playing ~3 hours of Silksong across those days.
