    Today i got my Final Steam Controller and made some shot to compare the beta and Final one.
    In hands it feels no differents, but the touch are more sensetive and better to contol the mouse.
    Here some shots:

    Great pics! Does the final have any more weight to it? The beta one didn't feel very solid, even considering it was 3d printed.

    The final one need two batteries for wireless, the beta one is wired only. So yes the Final one has more weight.

    Interesting... what I do not like about the final one is the glossy finish...

    But the controller/concept looks interesting enough, I think I'll give it a try.

    Looks to be a pain the ass to switch out the batteries, especially if you were in the middle of a game.

    No the 360 is quick with a battery pack, same as the One. Doesn't look like these will get battery packs and will always need to have 2 AA batteries, 1 on each side of the controller.

    Just use the usb connector, like on any ps3/ps4 controllers. This is not an issue. To me its dumb that the Microsoft still ships controllers that require AA batterys. Just include the damn battery pack.
