How to Connect a Keyboard to Steam Deck

NickelingAlan·7 months ago

FYI, using a Bluetooth keyboard with the Steam Deck is hit or miss for me. Sometimes it pairs easily, other times it's a battle. Wired keyboards through a USB-C hub never give me trouble though. Might want to keep that in mind if you're going for a wireless setup.

Connecting a keyboard to your Steam Deck is a breeze! Just grab any USB-C hub or dock that you have and plug it into your Steam Deck. Then, connect your keyboard's USB plug into the hub or dock. If your keyboard is Bluetooth, turn on your Steam Deck's Bluetooth settings, put your keyboard in pairing mode, and select it from the list of available devices. Happy typing!

Wireless keyboards work, but why clutter your life with more batteries? A good old wired keyboard through a USB-C hub is the way to go. Plus, it leaves your Bluetooth open for more important stuff, like controllers or headphones.
