    I use the steam controller. Nothing wrong with it in my mind (except maybe the fact that it uses batteries and is slightly too large).

      I disagree. Because of swappable batteries my controller is still relevant 7 years and half worn down stick later.

      If I were to complain, it’s about unpleasant hollow sound on trackpads and L1/R1 button clicks.

        Those are my two gripes too. They seemed to have fixed those issues on the deck though. If they ever do a v2 I’m sure those improvements will carry over.

      The AA batteries last really, really long and you can get rechargeable ones. You swap them in a few seconds and can continue playing.

      The ones that were included with the controller lasted me for several months before I had to swap them.
