You basically confirmed all the things I've suspected when I read the announcement – except the circle based d-pad which I don't like (plus d-pads ftw.).

Steam Beta improves Openbox support and fixes focus issues with AMD / Intel

The openbox issue was (and still is since I'm not using the beta version) very annoying.

Edit:

I want to be able to rotate the output of an external screen in game mode on the Deck.

I want to be able to modify the mango hud presets selectable by the … menu. I know that the current config is selected by an env variable that points to a config in /tmp on the Deck.

Edit 2:
Also on the SD: When I'm using the arrow keys (e.g. left) on the virtual keyboard in a Konsole window, it also sends a ^C which cancels the current command. That's very annoying. And it's still not possible to get a ctrl key.

That's not that much fun, but still manageable. Did the game or the emulator crash?

Quoting: ElectricPrismAlso, unfortunately the more expensive anti-glare etched glass is awesome as well.
With the discount it's less than what I originally paid for the middle model.
