I have 3 of their controllers. All excellent hardware-wise but a bit shit when it comes to their software. Don't think you'll even be able to do this firmware update on Linux. Curious to see how well the Steam Input support works in any case, especially whether it includes gyro.
Well at least it's "just" software issues, software can always be fixed, but hardware issues are usually only fixable by needing to buy a new version lol
A good example: their SN30 Pro has a bad bluetooth chip in it that makes Xinput support really laggy (I don't know the specifics). It's been years now, and had a few firmware updates, but there's still been no fix. It works great for everything else though, so I still keep it around.
Just a warning for anyone thinking of buying one after reading this...
