The Steam Deck just got some awesome features in beta.

You can turn on your Steam Deck LCD from across the room with a Bluetooth controller (only the OLED model did that at launch!) and I’m personally excited to finally use my Bluetooth headset’s microphone for chat while I game (sadly just in Desktop mode for now). Plus much more!

All these changes already arrived in the Preview branch back in March and in April, but there be dragons that way. Much more accessible now.
