Can I Use My Steam Deck Charger in Philippines?

Good to go

You're good — plug right in.

Your device's voltage range matches this country, and the plug fits. You can use it directly — no adapter or converter needed. As a final check, confirm the voltage range printed on the device label.

The short answer

The Steam Deck's 45W USB-C charger is dual-voltage (100–240V) and works worldwide. Pack a plug adapter; a multiport GaN charger handles the Deck plus your phone at once.

Philippines runs 220V at 60Hz. DANGEROUS TRAP: the Philippines uses US-shaped Type A/B sockets but runs at 220V. A US plug fits without an adapter — so a single-voltage US device (like a hair dryer) plugs straight in and can overheat or catch fire. The plug fitting does NOT mean it is safe.
