    designed for HTPC control

    If you want more than gaming (like YouTube), wouldn’t it make more sense to get a wireless keyboard with an integrated touchpad, like the recently announced Framework Wireless Touchpad Keyboard?

    I have an OG Steam Controller as well as a Steam Deck and I never ever thought to myself that for HTPC tasks would I want a controller in my had over a good wireless keyboard and mouse/touchpad.

      The OG steam controller is great for HTPC use and the keyboard on it is very useful, while not as quick to type as a real keyboard.

      There is still no price for the framework WTK but it still would be higher cost with a good controller than the Steam Controller.
