    I was just trying to be helpful. Some people might not know you can connect a Bluetooth keyboard to the device.

    I don’t know of any system that does a better job of typing with a controller than the Steam Deck with the touch pads. Granted, I’m not a console gamer so I have no idea what typing on the current gen Xbox or PlayStation is like, but I can’t imagine it’s better than the Steam Deck.

      Phones with number pads right at the beginning of the smart phone era had a number of good solutions that were surprisingly effective for typing. We’ve got so many buttons to work with on the steam deck.
