It's not the clearest photo, but it clearly has both 2 thumb sticks and 2 track pads.

I'm pretty surprised nobody seems to like the Deck's touchpads. Yes they're a bit of a compromise, but I have been playing hundreds of hours using the right trackpad for camera control on my Deck and they're pretty great. Maybe my hands are weird.

For me, the Deck's trackpads are half way between my thumb knuckles with my hands in a comfortable position, so they're not nice to reach for, whereas everything's a comfortable distance away on the original Steam controller. I have big hands, so maybe you've got small hands?
