I recently started to play a crafting mmorpg (bitcraft) and while it runs great on the steam deck, the controls are not great. I have been playing with an old dell usb keyboard and Bluetooth trackball. I would like to find a great Bluetooth keyboard. So many of the wireless keyboards I have looked at require a dongle, which limits my ability to charge unless I use a dock.

I would rather a larger keyboard than a smaller one.

I like those! I may replace my main keyboard with one of those too.

I can thoroughly second this recommendation. I have a K4 for my main computer keyboard, and a K7 low profile for my deck (as it fits into the steam deck case I have), and they’re both fantastic and completely without hassle

What steam deck case are you using? Thanks for the recommendations.

It’s just one of these cheapo ones Nothing fancy, but I can keep the keyboard, a small mouse, and some other bits all in one

Ohh cool, it gets the job done no matter how not-fancy it is! Thanks for sharing, I've been keeping my eye out for a better one than the case that came with the deck, that looks like it'll work for me!
