        Here is a deeper look into Steam Input on the new Steam Controller.  I also cover additional compatibility issues/solutions, and answer some other lingering questions from my previous Steam Controller review.

Update: To get BT pairing mode to work, you have to press and hold the BT toggle combo (R1 + B + Steam) for about 10 seconds when turning on the device. Only pressing it for a few seconds will make it attempt to connect to your previous BT device.
