With it, you can use your Xbox controller to move around the screen and type.

Does that mean you couldn't before? Seriously people were playing around on a handheld that couldn't even type?

Button accelerators are also available; these include the X button for backspace and the Y button for the spacebar.

WTF!? Isn't that standard also?

For better movement patterns, the keyboard keys are aligned vertically."

Does this even make a difference?

In any case, the title is bullshit, it should be that will make windows handhelds close to typing on consoles which sucks. Typing on the Deck is a completely different experience, one that can't be replicated in any of these handhelds because they lack the hardware to do so.
