So much speculation! Given I haven’t bought a Steam Deck yet, I would love to see a refresh; though, highly unlikely. What are your thoughts?

I’m hoping for a Steam controller 2. I’ve been using a PS4 and PS5 controller ever since they discontinued the original Steam controller. The gyro on the PlayStation controllers works great, but the touchpad isn’t useable (or even reachable) like the Steam controller’s trackpads were.
I’ve been thinking that would be their next product ever since they released an official dock. Seems like the two make sense together.
edit: OK I just read the article and it’s probably not a controller. :( It’s something with a 5Ghz radio in it, meaning it connects to wifi. A controller with a wireless dongle would only be using 2.4Ghz.
Ik you edited your comment but I also really want a steam controller 2 The first controller is great although running into modern problems like micro usb being trash and rechargeable AA batteries get stuck in the battery compartment. But a new controller with dual thumb sticks would be fantastic! Even if it would make the controller a slight bit more bulky
Me too! I have a couple and I only use them on games that “need” them for fear for fear of breaking them. The rest of the time I use a PS5 controller.
Next time I have too much money I’m gonna get a scuf controller.

I’ve got both a DualSense and a Steam Controller – they’re useful for different things. AAA titles with console ports are great with the DualSense (e.g. I’m also using it for Starfield). But the Steam Controller is the one you want for strategy games or anything that doesn’t support controllers at all.
It’s also surprisingly good for flight simming, so long as you can spend the time with customizing the scheme.
That’s what I’ve been doing as well, only using the Steam Controller for strategy games. That means I don’t use it much these days (which is too bad, since it’s a great controller), but I since it can’t be replaced now I figure I’ll only use it for the games it really needs.
