Where touchpads?
On the screen

So do normal controllers. So did gaming handhelds. So do PCs. So do VR headsets. I’m not sure what you’re point is.

The difference is each of those options from Valve offer things that traditional options do not. HDMI-CEC, trackpads, SteamOS, foveated streaming, etc.

Why could a phone controller not have innovations such as those? You mentioned track pads yourself.
artyom@piefed.social 1 day ago
Because phones already have touchpads on the screen. And games you would play on a phone would be optimized accordingly.
I suppose it’s not impossible, I’m just not sure there is any useful innovation to be had in that area.

OP didn’t ask for additional innovations, OP asked for “the same functionality as the Steam Controller” which the slot-in things + the phone’s touch screen already provide.
