Had my Steam Deck for months now, play it like there's no tomorrow, and guess what? No stick drift here. Maybe I'm just lucky or it's not as common as people fear.

Stick drift on Steam Deck? Rare but possible. Keep those sticks clean and avoid smashing them during rage quits; you might just dodge the drift.

Unfortunately, yes. Like any other analog stick, the Steam Deck's sticks can suffer from drift over time.

Literally any device with analog sticks can get stick drift, Steam Deck included. It's an unfortunate part of gaming life.

Stick drift on the Steam Deck? Possible, but Valve designed it to be robust. Mine鈥檚 been rock solid after a year of heavy use!
