one thing i miss the most about my switch is the joy con. i love being able to game while my arm is pretty much free.

i was thrilled when valve announced joy con support but when i tried it on my pc and my deck the connection is spotty and the input lag is really bad, i tried with multiple joy cons but it still the same, do you guys have the same experience or is there something i have to do with it first.

cheers.

    You can pair switch joycons to a steam deck as Bluetooth controllers, only issue is you need to remember to power them off.

    Personally the only strain I found is the joy cons are so damn small, I prefer to current xbox controllers (also Bluetooth) as I find them comfortable even though they are not separate.

    We already had both types of controller in our house we just use what ever works best on our Steamdeck at the time.

      in my experience the connection is really spotty and sometimes it disconnects on its own even if its just less than a meter away from the deck. so its really unusable

      i have a small hand so its size is non factor to me
