    Added preliminary support for HDMI VRR for devices with native HDMI output

    Now that is the biggest news (aside from Steam Machine support)

    Fixed excessive trackpad sensitivity on certain early Steam Deck LCD models

    Rejoice! My partner will finally be able to use desktop mode without inadvertently tossing files and folders into the wrong place

    They mention improved controller support for the Orange Pi Neo. I thought that was dead?

    Help out a Deck newbie. I’m on the beta channel, so:

    1. Is the new update just a copy of the last update to the beta channel?
    2. If not (e.g. there are some bug fixes or tweaks for the proper release), then do I get the update as part of the beta channel? Or should I switch to the stable channel?

      When stable is ahead, you should still get all the updates on the beta channel.
