![]() They have a limited range of faceplates for the time being, but no doubt Elgato will be expanding to this range, and I am sure it will offer a customizable option soon too. ![]() This is rather new to the Elgato product range they introduced it with the new Wave XLR as well, which are customizable faceplates. This actually got updated later with the Stream Deck Mini and XL that also offered the USB C cable, so it’s natural to expect the longer right angle cable for the MK 2 and should make cable management life a lot easier going forward. The original model had a slightly shorter cable that makes it somewhat difficult to cable manage and actually route correctly. Some people prefer the adjustability of the stand, but for me, the half of right angle suits just fine. You can actually remove the stand completely too. The original model had a more flexible stand, whereas the new version has a fixed 45-degree stand for the Stream Deck. The newer version offers a slightly slimmer and flatter profile for the Stream Deck, whereas the original version is a bit thicker and heavier. The main aspect that you will see from the off is, of course, the visual perspective. ![]() So let’s get into the differences with a bit more detail. ![]() To clarify anything not mentioned, we recommend getting in touch with Elgato (owned by Corsair Gaming) directly, but it should be pretty clear. It still provides the 15 LCD keys, offers the same software, along with the same types of actions for Music and Sound effects. It mainly comes down to four main features:Īpart from that, everything is pretty much identical. That’s the version we are going to be specifically comparing. For now, it is only the standard model that has been upgraded, the 15 button version, known just as Stream Deck. There are a few models that vary in size you have the Stream Deck Mini, which basically comes with 6 buttons, then you have the Stream Deck XL that offers 32 buttons. So this article hopes to clear that up, and if there are any price differences, it might be able to help you justify which version is worth it for you. In July 2021, they brought out the updated version, the Elgato Stream Deck Mark 2, but upon first glance, apart from the obvious visual difference, it might not be immediately clear where the differences are between the two versions. ![]()
