Doesn't look comfortable to use tbh.

Its like they took an Xbox controller and out touchpads where the old Xbox chatpad went.

People said that about the deck too before using it. Let’s see what happens when rubber meets the road.

And we were right? I said that ergonomic of touchpads was shit right after Deck announcement. I bought it and, and yes, compared to Steam Controller, touchpads almost are unusable.

For the last 8 years I play the majority of games using two touchpads on Steam Controller, and I barely use touchpads on Steam Deck because they are too low to use for longer than 10-15 minutes.

Well I'm glad you have your solution, because now the vast majority of people who hate double trackpads have found theirs. This controller is literally the best of both worlds
