How the heck are people writing reviews on the Steamdeck? Are they plugging in a keyboard?
I can barely form sentences on the virtual kb and tagged keyboard only games so I can play them at my gaming PC.
You can write the reviews from your PC still, and it will tag it as a steam deck review if most of your playtime is on deck.
As for typing on the deck, the OLED has a much more responsive touchscreen and typing is better on it. On the LCD deck I would stick to track pad typing though.
