My day 1 ordered Steam Controller is still going strong but I’ve been constantly worrying about the day it dies. Can’t wait, if this rumour proves to be true.
I have mine still, dongle too, but it started constantly dropping the connection to the Steam Deck and I can’t figure out why.
Maybe this is how it dies, not with a bang but with a whimper.
I have this issue too it's from the board being dropped a lot / age. I bought an extra used controller and some 3d printed replacement shoulders and I've been able to fix them pretty well. Unfortunately there is no way to fix the board I wasn't able to discern any kind of issue with the parts but I don't have voltage schematic to figure out what might have went bad I suspect a capacitor or something. I still use them every day though they are great. I hate the new steam interface though cause they dropped a lot of advanced features
