The Elgato Stream Deck + in White is an absolute upgrade for anyone who wants more intuitive control over their workflow. The build quality is top-notch as always solid, premium, and the white finish looks stunning on a clean desk setup. The combination of customizable buttons, touch strip, and rotary dials makes it incredibly versatile. Assigning actions is super easy through the Elgato software, and the dials are surprisingly useful for adjusting volume, switching scenes, or controlling lighting with real-time precision. Everything feels smooth and responsive. What I really appreciate is how well it integrates with OBS, audio mixers, and productivity apps. Whether you're streaming, video editing, or just want quick shortcuts for daily tasks, it adds genuine efficiency. A bit pricey, yes but you can feel where the money goes. If you want both functionality and aesthetics, this is one of the best tools you can put on your desk. Highly recommended.

Benefits for Video Editing: Efficiency: Video editors can dramatically speed up their workflow by assigning common tasks to the Stream Deck+ buttons and dials, cutting down the time spent navigating menus or remembering keyboard shortcuts. Tactile Feedback: The physical buttons and dials provide a satisfying tactile experience that keyboard shortcuts lack. This allows editors to focus more on their project and less on hunting for commands or settings. Multi-functionality: The ability to customize each key and dial for specific software allows editors to create highly specialized setups, saving time and ensuring that all necessary tools are readily available. Enhanced Focus: By centralizing control on a single device, editors can maintain focus on the creative aspects of video production without being distracted by software navigation. Conclusion: The Elgato Stream Deck+ is a valuable asset for video editors, offering a high degree of customization and control. Its integration with popular editing software, combined with its tactile input options, makes it a powerful tool to enhance workflow, save time, and improve precision in editing tasks. Whether you're an amateur or a professional, the Stream Deck+ can significantly elevate your editing efficiency and creativity.

A beautifully engineered product. The rotary encoders are solid and precise and the touchscreen works very well. To really get the best out of the Streamdeck range, you should augment Elgato's own software with the free open source Bitfocus Companion product. This adds enormous power and flexibility to these products and overcomes many of the issues that others have reported. It works alongside Elgato's own software and allows you to do amazing things like define separate actions for rotating the encoders left or right, provides feedback so that the button states always reflect the active state on the controlled device, and many other things, including live VU meters back from a Yamaha mixing desk.

It's largely aimed and streamers and supports various bits of software for that. But it's not as great for creators - with official Adobe support being a massive omission. Whether that's Elgato or Adobe I don't know, but all these knobs and buttons could be really useful. You can still manually use it as macro board for any app, sure, but having the display that would tell you values and other contextual info would be great. Lack of native system monitor (ram usage, GPU usage, temperatures) is also jarring, and hwinfo support basically forces you to buy it's premium license. Elgato offers theirnown "CPU" utilisation monitor - godd start but needs more. Otherwise they have silly apps like "reaction" or "memory game" which are pretty useless - why not give us more usefull plugins instead? It's a missed opportunity to use the LCD a ove dials for something more, application specific information (nor just for knob controll info) - e.g..if you could have system details there instead, or current keyboard profile info, or anything else useful. I hope this will evolve thdt way eventually. As for the hardware - it's sturdy frame and foot, which isnalsp detachable - but can't lie it flat as the cable plugs right at the back. The buttons are bit wobbly - feel like directional pad where you can press just one side of it. Knobs are very solid. Display resolution is very good. Display colour accuracy is very poor, not really an issue for what it's intended purpose is but still quite shocking they used nasties LCD they found. Maybe they should have made it monochrome to avoid embarrassment. The look is nice, in white it fits my setup although the black frame around the display is more prominent on white unit. Perhaps is should have been all screen instead. Overall it feels like glorified macro board, and unless it's on sale it is not really worth it for the limited functionality for the premium they're asking as they provide very little first-party apps (plugins), mainly to support their other hardware.

AMAZING Product for content creation and so many things such as games hotkeys, windows hot keys so much to do! One thing about this product that I really like is the ability to have action wheel for audio adjusting on the screen, making streams much easier to adjust. It also provides me with more flexibility and options for many things.

Reading down the one star reviews I’m seeing they were all from 2022 when it first came out, so I don’t know if the software/firmware was still in development with it having been released early. The other criticisms I’m seeing — that it doesn’t work with the eg Adobe suite out of the box — I can see as being fair criticisms on the one hand if you’re buying a programmable shortcut controller and expecting it to work without having to program it, but on the other hand, personally that’s not a problem for me, because I actively want to program it myself — I don’t want the shortcuts and icons for somebody else’s workflow, I want the shortcuts and icons which I use for *my* workflow, and it’s not a big deal to rustle up those icons in Photoshop. The knobs can also be mapped to shortcut keys, so it’s easy enough to map them to the left and right keys for frame by frame paging through the clip with a push of the button to make a cut action, and like its predecessors it recognises the application in current focus and automatically selects the correct set of shortcuts for the icon. And the + variant only having eight buttons and four knobs isn’t as much of a problem as it first looks, because you can page through to get more shortcuts by swiping on the touchscreen. For me I’d say the headline price of £200 was a stretch in terms of value to me personally, but I got it for £140 in the Amazon sale, and I’d say it has been well worth it for me for that price.

Had this a few months and use it mainly in Flight Sim 2024. I was a little sceptical regarding the limited number of buttons and would I use the knobs? Both proved to be groundless concerns. You do need to plan your screens to maximise efficiently, but, that probably is a good thing, as the end result will be better. The knobs have been very useful in VR to move around the cockpit - left -right, closer - further and up and down. The ability to click on the knob(s) provides me with a quick method to recentre my view in VR. The lower display is a good aid to memory and again within the flight sim I have a knob set to scroll thru the cockpit panels and as I do so the panel number appears on the screen. Essential? No, but nice touch. Oh, and talking of nice touches the wallpaper feature ( if you pick the right image, I would suggest an abstract ) is cool. So for myself its been good but your milage may vary.

Game changer. It's not cheap but it's the most well known brand for this type of product and it has a great compatability with a wide array of software that you can control from the buttons and dials. The virtual stream deck software works really well too. I use mine to control my input and outputs. I also use it to control Spotify. It's so handy as you can record macros etc and once you've set it up it just works every time.

Llegó muy rápido, fue vendido por un externo (VENTROTEC). Grabé incluso video de la apertura de la bolsa para evitar problemas con relación al producto, pero fue el correcto, nuevo y al 100. Llevo un par de semanas de uso y ha mejorado la parte de mis clases (cambié de un streamdeck de 15 botones), pues me permite tener los botones que más ocupo, a mejor disposición, más grandes, con knobs específicos para mi micrófono y mis lámparas, lo que me permite encender todo y cambiar rápidamente (aún no lo uso con XLR diferentes al Wave, para probar la fusión con otra interfaz).

This has been one of my best purchase in 2025, I bought this primarily for my MSFS and have enjoyed using it too for other apps. Fully customizable buttons, touchscreen and dials a must have for productivity and gaming enthusiasts.

First Impressions: Right out of the box, the Stream Deck Plus felt solid and well-made. Setting it up was a breeze, and I customized it to fit my needs in no time. What I Liked: • Ease of Use: The 15 programmable LCD buttons let me set up hotkeys for quick access to essential functions, making managing my stream and other apps much simpler. • Extra Controls: The rotary knobs and touch screen add flexibility for adjusting audio and other settings. Now, I can easily tweak my mic volume or switch scenes in OBS without hassle. • Customization: Being able to personalize each button with icons and even GIFs is awesome! My Stream Deck now looks just the way I want it. What Could Be Better: • Software: Occasionally, the Elgato software can be glitchy. Some plugins have crashed or didn’t work correctly, and the plugin installation site can be slow. But overall, it’s manageable. • Price: For a newbie streamer, the cost might seem steep. However, considering its functionality and build quality, I think it’s a worthwhile investment. Conclusion: The Elgato Stream Deck Plus has become an indispensable tool in my streaming setup. Despite a few minor issues, I’m thrilled with the purchase. If you’re starting out in streaming and want to enhance your broadcasts, I highly recommend checking out this device. Hope my review helps! Good luck with your streams!
