But I don't want to play any game like that on a little phone screen. Do people not understand that bigger screens are better?

    this is less about running steam games on phones and more about running steam games on all these android gaming handhelds that are hitting the market with Snapdragon 8 gen 6 and Elite chips. AYN, Retroid, Ayaneo, Anbernic, etc.

    My 9 year old phone can be connected to a display with a USB-C to HDMI adapter.

    That's nice, mine can as well. If you can also connect a mouse and keyboard, then you'd have something to game on I guess. Touchscreens are no good for gaming to me, my thumbs are wide and not precise enough on a touchscreen. So if I have room for a monitor, I'll just plug a computer into it.

    Bluetooth controller do exist by quite some time. ...also bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

    ...ad also USB-C hub that recharge/give power, offer HDMI/DP port and usb slots.

    I recall Ubuntu Phone back in 2011 was set to use these features to give a complete computing, Ubuntu Linux, experience on smartphone (and TV, as the smartphone connected to TV)
