At last! I was using plugins just for this.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


A while ago I mentioned (in a video) how the upcoming SteamOS 3.5 for Steam Deck added in a colour vibrance setting, and now Valve seems to have expanded it even further with a screen colour temperature setting as well.

Here's a look at the difference between the default 7500K colour temperature and then turning it up to 11000K, with colour vibrance at default:

This is currently available in the Main + Steam Deck Beta update channels, which you'll see if you turned on Developer Mode, and then select to see the Advanced Update Channels in the Developer menu in settings.

I would firmly advise against this though, as it's updated often and can be full of big bugs (there's a reason it's hidden).

Stick with the normal Steam Deck Stable / Beta.

SteamOS 3.5 is sounding quite exciting now, hopefully it's not too much longer until it's released.

Awesome that we can officially control the vibrance then. I was a disappointed with the low vibrance for the first week or two but got used to it and haven't thought about it for the last half year, though.
