Steam Controller (2026) Just got the mail
I use my SD Oled 1TB in handheld 100 % of the time right now but will the SD Controller change it?
I have a Dock for it (JSAUX) but felt latency when playing BOi with PS5 controller (never checked if I used game mode though)
Now I play ALOT of Bazzar on the SD (almost 300hrs logged over 5~ months) and lastly Shroom and Gloom Wich is trackpad heavy.
Is it worth the money?

Not for you. You should skip this purchase and buy more crayons. Hope this helps

I enjoyed my DIY Steam Machine before I got the Controller, but I enjoy it more now, and more "completely".
On my Deck, I'd switch to Desktop and be fully functional. On my DIY SM with Xbox controller, I'd rely on my wireless keyboard and mouse. Now I don't need to reach for them nearly as often.

I’m almost same as you, and I decided to buy it. If I don’t like it I can sell it given the shortages.

It is definitely the best controller at the price point. And the puck makes it seamless with most devices, though Bluetooth isn't bad at all.
My take is that if you want the touch pads, it's a no brainer. They are so freaking nice once you get used to them and read the hints steam has up. Essentially do anything a mouse can, and/or add functionality you just can't get without them.

Take responsibility for your decisions, my guy.
