Honestly, even at the low render, it looks solid. Maybe a little concerned about the track pad placement and potentially hitting it with the heel of my hand, maybe.

I'm worried they're treating the touchpad as secondary. I wanted them to be the main focus, at least on the right side, I hate joystick camera movement...

Now that I'm used to trackball style camera movement with the touchpads Its hard to go back. I am a little disappointed by this leak

I am too.
Though comfort is always hard to measure via pictures, specially shitty pictures from a leaked model. Maybe when it's in our hands it'll all click, I dunno.

By far my biggest gripe with the steams deck is hitting the trackpads with the palms of my hands. I usually disable them when playing a shooter like doom because otherwise the trackpads override my aim.

Looks solid

Yeah because it’s the shape of a brick. The track pads confuse me it would be like dual wielding computer mouses.

I mean, the trackpads don't have to control mouse cursors. They can be made to do pretty much anything, up to building action sets for a variety of key presses.
