A Powerful Little Control Deck That Saves a Ton of Mouse Clicking
This is an excellent little control deck and packs a surprising amount of functionality into a very compact footprint. The six programmable LCD keys are bright and easy to identify at a glance, and being able to customize the icons makes it much faster to find the command or application I want without having to remember complicated keyboard shortcuts.
The three rotary knobs are probably my favorite feature. They are extremely convenient for functions like volume, microphone level, scrolling, zooming, or other adjustments where a physical dial is much nicer than repeatedly clicking buttons. The three additional scene/profile buttons also make it easy to switch between different groups of controls depending on what I am doing.
Setup over USB-C is straightforward, and the software provides a lot of flexibility for assigning hotkeys, launching applications, controlling media, and building more complex shortcuts. It is useful far beyond streaming and works equally well as a productivity and general computer-control device.
For around $50, the combination of LCD buttons, programmable knobs, compact size, and customization options makes this an excellent value. It looks great on the desk and genuinely speeds up repetitive computer tasks.

A versatile control deck that makes repetitive tasks much easier
This is a great little control deck for much more than streaming, and I use mine regularly for Photoshop actions and other repetitive tasks. The customization is excellent, especially being able to assign your own icons and organize functions across multiple pages without filling up my desk with a dozen shortcuts. The knobs are particularly useful for fine adjustments like brush size and other settings where clicking tiny sliders gets old fast. Setup takes a little time if you want to really customize it, but once configured, it makes my workflow noticeably quicker and more convenient, and the build feels solid enough for regular use. For the versatility and number of functions you can pack into one device, I think it offers very good value.
I hope that someone finds this helpful.

Amazing for the price!
Takes a sec to figure out all the customization functions but this thing is pretty sweet. Save any GIF, click on the slot, select local file and upload! Doesn’t have to be related to the app or website link; you can customize to anything which makes it even better

I'm genuinely loving this stream deck
I've been itching to pick up a Stream Deck for my PC setup, so I jumped at the chance to try out this Streonor S6.
This is my first time using any device like this, so my perspective is fresh with no points of comparison, for better or worse.
Setup is easy breezy. The deck comes with two USB cables, one that ends in USB-A and the other a USB-C. For my PC, I used the USB-C version and ran the cable down through the table to the front of the machine below. I currently have the stream deck behind my keyboard, but I'd like to move it over to the right, closer to my mouse hand. When this is a permanent fixture, I'll manage the cable and run it more cleanly. Speaking of cable management, you can run the cable out the sides or back of the stand to control where it extends from the device. And the included USB cables are plenty long, so length shouldn't be an issue.
The software comes with several built-in screens of functions (these screens are referred to as scenes) that are great for getting started. There are scenes with Windows functions, launching websites, info like weather and a to-do list and a stopwatch, Word hotkeys, and more. The Photoshop scene was a close fit for the graphical software I use, but not exactly the same, so I had to tweak some of the hotkeys. I'll probably delete the Word scene as it's not really necessary. I don't need hotkeys to toggle bold, italics, and underlines. The experience of setting up new functionality is clean and easy - drag and drop, right click to copy / paste, duplicate pages and then change what you want.
There are a ton of buttons and dials on this stream deck! The six illuminated screen buttons are what first catch your eye. Three tactile buttons sit below them, and there are three dials to the right. The dials can also be pressed for additional functionality. By default, several of the scenes use the large dial for volume, the lower left small dial for scrolling between pages, and the lower buttons for cycling between scenes - but you can do WHATEVER you want with any of these buttons and dials.
I feel like I've barely scratched the surface on what the deck can do, but so far I'm really enjoying being able to launch my favorite Steam games from the deck. I learned that it's not wise to tie the keypress directly to launch the application. Many games won't work at all unless they're launched from Steam. So, instead you want to create a website function that calls steam://rungameid/<gameID>. This method, unfortunately, doesn't pick up the icon for the game, so you have to find or make your own icons. Speaking of which, you can download sets of icons from the store, some are paid and others free. Some are even animated. They all look sharp.
Another aspect I've dabbled with is creating hotkeys for commands. There are some complicated console commands I use for Tabletop Simulator that are a pain to type. I previously would copy/paste them in from Textpad, but with the stream deck I now I have handy hotkeys to manage those inputs. And for you all you Helldivers players, you can make hotkeys for your favorite stratagems - I used 50ms between every directional keypress and they fire off reliably and quickly.
Overall I am genuinely loving this stream deck. The buttons and dials are delightfully tactile, especially the dials. The knobs are knurled and rotate between settings with a satisfying click. The little digital screens are bright and snazzy and deliver sharp images despite their small size. I've already streamlined some frequently used functionality using the deck and I'm going to continue to tailor the experience to suit my needs.

Useful Little Controller for More Than Streaming
I got this because I liked the idea of having programmable buttons and knobs for shortcuts I use regularly, rather than specifically for gaming or streaming. It's a nice compact size and doesn't take up much room on my desk.
The six LCD buttons are especially nice because you can customize what they do and what appears on each button, which makes it much easier to remember your shortcuts. I also really like having the three rotary knobs for things like volume control. Being able to create different pages or profiles gives you quite a bit of functionality despite there only being six main buttons.
There is definitely a little bit of a learning curve when you first start figuring out the software and deciding how you want everything set up, but once you get the hang of it, there are a lot of possibilities.
I think the biggest thing to know is that you don't have to be a streamer to find this useful. It can be set up for everyday computer shortcuts, frequently used programs, media controls, and other repetitive tasks. For around $50, it's a fun and useful addition to my desk.

Decent; Buttons/Knobs Could Be Better
Seems to be a white-label of MiraBox. The software and hardware are practically identical, seemingly just with some labels and icons changed. I like that it uses a mostly common software as that allows it to be somewhat familiar, but I was also hoping for a more... mix and match experience. While the software is practically identical (and only allows one instance to run at a time), the hardware support/whitelist seems to be beaked/compiled in, so I wasn't able to get the plain MiraBox software to work with this controller. The Streonor software works with it just fine though, as expected.
Despite that though, the software is sufficient and seems to have a reasonably rich ecosystem of plugins (I went pretty basic for now, but it's nice that there's some room there!)
The hardware here is decent. The LCD is crisp and all of the buttons and knobs are responsive. The buttons feel a little... unexciting. They're just a very basic click and don't offer a satisfying tactile response. The large knob is a bit that way too (though for some reason the smaller knobs feel better!)
I do wish they'd gotten a little fancier with the knobs and plain buttons - some RGB lighting for these would have been really nice and would have made the functions stand out a little bit more. The "click a the button, it turns green" or "spin the dial and it changes color" would have been really nice options for programming.
The USB port placement is also less than ideal. The dock consists of two parts: the dock itself and the "stand". The dock itself has a nice flat back/bottom that you think it could work w/o the base to offer a shallower angle, but instead there's the USB port right there - you can't use it in that orientation (at least not w/o a conveniently placed hole on your desk!).
Did not have (current) support in OpenDeck or Bitfocus Companion.

Good Controller for the Price
Pros
- Comes with a quick start guide that is helpful and contains an email address and WhatsApp number to contact support.
- Comes with two cables, a USB-C to USB-C and USB-C to USB-A.
- The cables are about 5 feet long.
- Software supports MacOS all the way back to Big Sur 11.0.
- There is a troubleshooter in the app. If you are unable to resolve your issue, it will actually create a report that you can send to support.
- The knobs have a quality look and feel.
- The knobs also act as buttons when you push them which expands the number of actions you can perform.
- The software is pretty decent and allows a great deal of customization of the controller and give you the ability to control a wide range of apps.
- There are a large number of plugins and icon packs that you can install.
- There are a large number of tutorial videos accessible from the app.
- It's lightweight so if you use it on the go it won't weigh you down.
- The app loading screen shows a graphic of a rotating black hole which I think is a nice touch.
Cons
- The app installation instructions in the manual were a bit unclear when it came to the security settings for the Mac.
- The app didn't recognize my S6 initially. I tried the troubleshooter but I'm pretty sure it was resolved by just unplugging the S6 and plugging it back in again.
- The troubleshooter is actually pretty basic, just asking you to plug in the device directly to your computer.
- The app is not super intuitive so you might need to watch the tutorials to understand how to use it.
- It came with a piece of clear plastic which is not listed in the manual and I don’t know what it’s for.
- It’s not super stable when pushing the top icon buttons. It wants to tip over and slide across the desk. This is partly because it’s plastic and lightweight. Also because the feet are not very grippy.
- The black buttons below the icon buttons have a click that feels plastic.
- When you're setting the action that happens when you rotate the knobs, there is an option to choose a hotkey from a dropdown, but if you choose one of these it doesn’t save it, so you have to manually set the hotkey instead.
- Some of the messaging on the dialog boxes is clunky (see screenshots).
- The knobs are wobbly, especially the large one.
- The small knobs don't have the same resistance to spin as the large knob.
- Not compatible with Linux.
In summary, I'd say it's a decent controller that has a few issues but overall is worth the price.

A Productivity Powerhouse That Streamlines Your Entire Workflow
Stock trading is where this little device really proved its worth for me — shaving precious seconds off order entries and exits adds up fast when the market is moving. The six customizable LCD buttons are the real star of the show, letting me pin frequently visited folders, websites, and apps so they're always one tap away, while the three rotary knobs handle volume control and video timeline scrubbing without me ever touching a scroll bar. OBS Studio integration is smooth and intuitive, making it a genuinely capable streaming companion for anyone who juggles scenes, mutes, and transitions on the fly. The knobs doubling as push buttons is a thoughtful touch that adds even more programmable actions without cluttering up the layout. Repetitive tasks that used to eat up time throughout the day just disappear when everything you reach for constantly lives on this keypad — it's honestly hard to overstate how much it tightens up a workflow. Anyone spending serious hours at a computer desk will find this a very worthwhile addition that is well worth the money!

Nicely Made Macro Keypad with Customizable Keys and Ample Knobs
The Streonor S6 is a unique alternative to the Streamdeck with more focus on knob based controls. This customizable macro keypad is nicely built, and includes two adjustable knobs, 6 customizable display buttons, and 3 basic buttons for adjusting settings on the fly. The ergonomics of the S6 are good, and the included desk based holder allows it to be mounted at an angle that is useful for viewing and control adjustments.
At 49.99 at the time of writing, this is an affordable accessory option for someone who does not need a ton of customizable display buttons, but instead wants to focus on wheel based control adjustment for tracker programs and audio work.
The connectivity is provided by a simple USB-C port on the device, and two included USB cables (one C-to-C, and one A-to-C) cable make connecting this to your system a simple task. Software is readily available from the Streonor site and both Mac and PC Applications are available. Out of the box, the macros include shortcuts for commonly visited sites (as pictured) but the software allows very high levels of customizations for your specific application.
This is a neat little desk peripheral for general control, streaming, music creation and more.

That other stream deck
When I got this I was expecting to have to jump through hoops to get it going but it was actually very easy to set up and had profiles already ready to go for different platforms.
If you are familiar with the other name brand stream deck you’ll be right at home as the interface is almost exactly the same down to the icons in the App Store.
For me having the convenience of the dials in such an inexpensive device is well worth the price of admission. I wouldn’t say it’s a 1:1 experience but it’s a tool and it works well. That’s enough for me.

Really programmable, super useful for productivity software.
Very programable and super easy to setup and use. If anyone is curious about this versus the El Gato, the first thing you will notice is this size of the Streaonor "Mini" is not exactly mini at all. Yes it has the same 6 buttons as the streamdeck, but with the extra controls and stuff, it's pretty much the same size as the standard.
The Streonor is awesome, to be quite frank. At least what I've used of it. It's really really good for Adobe Lightroom it's possible to really fine tune the macros to do various things, and even levels of things. It's awesome.
Compatible with a lot of different software, and also just has basic stuff setup for those not wanting to dive deep and just use it for a media controller.
I had no connection issues into my windows 11 pc, and the software had no problem.
If I was being nitpicky, the screen quality seems a little older on the buttons (reminds me of TN panels contrast wise, but still has good viewing angles), and the buttons have a membrane squishy feel that isn't my favorite. But nothing that makes it a horrible product, and for the price, the value is incredible. I would highly consider this for younger streamers or as a gift for someone.

better than expected!
The Streonor S6 Mini is exactly what it promises—a no-nonsense stream deck for people who don't want a giant footprint on their desk. The six LCD keys are snappy and responsive, the knobs feel solid when you turn them, and the whole thing connects without any of the usual driver drama. Software setup is straightforward; the plugin ecosystem gives you plenty of hooks into OBS, streaming apps, and Adobe stuff. What keeps it from being perfect is that six keys run out fast once you start layering macros into different scenes. If you're editing video or managing complex streaming setups, you'll find yourself hunting for the scene keys to switch contexts. It's built for lean workflows—and it executes that brief really well—but it assumes you're not trying to map your entire creative suite onto one device. For streamers and editors who like their gear minimal and intentional, this lands solid.

Works great with Windows, Can, with effort, on Linux, but not supported.
This is my first Stream Deck and I had a lot of fun learning how to use it as well as being amazed with all the different things it can do. I completely setup my OBS first and then used the Software to setup the streamdeck. It took a little time to figure out how OBS is controlled by this (it uses the Websocket Server in OBS) but once I did that, I was able to get the OBS plugin to work and had fun assigning all the buttons, screens, ETC. The lighted LEDs were great when I stream or do work in the dark. It's pretty robust and stout and I like that I can position it horizontal, vertical, or upside down although vertical is a little unsteady. The knobs are solid, have a good click feel when turning but no sound and are well positioned. Setting the buttons is easy and they LED images are customization which I did to make things so much easier to see and understand. Everything worked great on my Windows Box. the only downside I didn't read before I got this was that it isn't natively compatible with Linux. You can get it to work with OpenDeck, but I had modify the Mirabox N3 plugin to recognize the new USB Id (1500:3006) and then I was able to get it to work. The software really makes it convent and easy in Windows so if you're not comfortable with creating or tweaking software in Linux, don't get it for that. I just wanted to let those who know that yes, it can work, but not as intended and you leave a lot of convenience.

A Tiny Productivity Powerhouse of Efficiency
I tested the S6 Mini stream controller for a couple weeks now in both work and gaming scenarios. Most macro pads ignore physical dials entirely. This little device fixes that oversight by packing six customizable LCD keys and three rotary knobs into an incredibly small footprint. The plastic housing feels satisfyingly solid. Its compact design leaves plenty of room for my oversized mousepad. Software setup took only a few minutes and while it is feature packed, it was still pretty easy to figure out. The sheer versatility completely blew me away once I got my profiles configured. I absolutely love how fast I can transform the entire interface when switching from a serious video editing session right into a late night gaming mission. With a quick press of a dedicated scene button swaps all my LCD icons and remaps the dials from timeline zooming to Discord volume control. The screens are surprisingly crisp even under bright desk lamps yet it's not blinding when the room is dimly lit. The rotary dials have a smooth stepped rotation that makes fine tuning audio levels feel precise. If you want the convenience of a larger controller without sacrificing desk space this is a fantastic option!

This needs to plug directly into your computer. Ended up having to buy $200 thunderbolt expander
I asked something like this before, but it was clearly a knockoff. This thing is endlessly customizable, and I look forward to using it more. My only gripe or complaint with it is that I'm using a MacBook Air with an M4 chip, and it only has two USB-C ports. This thing absolutely must be plugged into the computer itself. If you have something like a 4k webcam or a microphone or an external hard drive or external display... just be wary that you'll need a direct port to your computer for this to work- no dongle, no $20-$30 USB-C (using ANKER) will work.
I ended up buying a separate $200 Thunderbolt 4 expander, so hopefully I'll be able to at least be able to plug my external display into that, which will allow free space for me to plug all that other stuff in to it.
So I guess obviously I do like this thing and plan on using it more. Otherwise, I wouldn't have spent $200 more on a $150 item just so I could use it with my current setup. I also have a Dell XPS 13, but that has two single USB-C ports and no power cable/magSafe Charger, so I'd be in more trouble trying to use it on something like that.
Hello. I don't think they're shy about that, but again, that's the only thing I think I can talk about. The features of this are great: the adaptability of the buttons and what they do, and the shortcuts, and that the actual buttons light up, not just stickers or something like that. It's pretty remarkable.

stream controller..
its customizeable as you would expect, the large knob does default to volume which makes sense. all the knobs and keys are customizeable. you have to download the software (~ 500mb for windows). there are some preset scenes for common apps and again you can add your own shortcuts. the main thing i dont like is the placement of the usb port, for my particular use i dont need the big plastic angled back portion, just place the port on the rear and angle the main unit ~ 10 degrees. takes up less space and less hassle imo.
