There were two new Steam Deck Beta Client updates that primarily include some minor fixes for the Legion Go S. There are some input issues and glyph problems for The Last of Us: Part 2 and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart, so these were both fixed. However, we also have improved support for the 8BitDo gyro, and some startup movies that were not playing correctly have been fixed.
You can download the update yourself in the System Settings on the Steam Deck. Make sure your update channel is set to Beta or Preview.

Steam Deck has improved significantly in recent years, but several key aspects of the console experience remain lacking. Valve seems unlikely to address these issues, such as the inability to navigate the Steam interface using a controller, which can lead to lost progress and the need to start over. Additionally, random crashes during docking and disconnects when using two Bluetooth controllers are frustrating. Steam Remote Play is also a joke, as you can’t even wake up your PC. These are just a few of the issues I recall, but I’m sure there are many others. It seems Valve is more focused on expanding its OS to more devices to increase revenue rather than improving the software at the hardware they sell.
