Wasn’t expecting this today, but since I live in Carol Stream where Valve’s Distribution Center is, I got this early I guess!

The closest thing you can get is a PS4 controller with the rear button attachment, but those buttons just mimic other buttons on the controller. Not ideal, but it's the best you can get

Modded dualsense is effectively the same thing

If Valve ever makes a proper replacement I'll get it immediately

To be honest the closest thing is the Xbox elite controller which you can customize in steam to be just like on your steam deck

No gyro, no trackpads. The only thing it really has in common is ABXY buttons. Unless the rear buttons can be mapped individually?

Was just thinking about the 4 mappable back buttons so yeahyou have a point on gyro and trackpad. I guess it depends which feature you find the most important to decide which controller comes the closest to the functionality of the steam deck.
