Excited to have bought the steam deck during the sale! I was planning on grabbing a dock and micro sd card and I noticed there were a bunch of accessories and customizations people could do with this thing. Was wondering if there were anything the community loved in particular?

I haven't done it yet, but my understanding is the hall-effect joystick swap-out is one of the most game changing mods. The dead zone on the stock joysticks is very noticeable, although gyro aim fixes makes it pretty much a non-issue for me personally.

oo TIL swapping for hall effect sensors will also resolve stick drift concerns ๐Ÿ‘€ that does sound like a game changer

FYI it does involve a small amount of soldering if you want the cap touch areas of the sticks to work. Still a very accessible mod but slightly more challenging than it may first appear.

They released new hall effect joysticks that drive require soldering and work with both stick types.
