Is what I’ve linked below comparable to what you had? I’ve also made the left side of my trackpad better by only untightening the 4 screws behind the trackpad itself somewhat (didn’t dare to touch ribbon cables yet without a guide). You went further and completely fixed it? Also had the clicky left trigger?
This is my topic on it: https://steamcommunity.com/app/1675200/discussions/0/4038101970211430425/?tscn=1700869463
When using them or other button presses?
I don’t think everyone has it. There’d def be an outrage then, haha.
It seems my post got deleted, but I assume it will get buried here. Ah well, let’s try it then:
I feel a distinct difference (just like some other users on a bigger tech forum) between the left and right trackpad, especially in the Steam interface. For instance, the left trigger pull feels like a click happening inside. The right trigger is more of a smooth vibration, just like it was with my LCD version. Also, changing the intensity of the haptics does nothing to change it.
It actually feels like some screws may be overtightened on the left side of the Deck? I’d love to hear some solutions I can try at home. I can’t find any dead pixels or other flaw so far, so I’d hate to not be able to improve and/or fix this myself. Good to know: I feel like I’ve improved it myself somewhat. I carefully opened the Deck and slightly untightened the four screws behind the left haptic trackpad. It no longer creaks when pressed, and seems to have smoothened out a bit. That’s why I assume it’s a hardware/tightening issue, but I’m not sure yet.
Oh, right, another good test is the keyboard haptics. If you use the left trackpad, it feels more like a “rattly clicking” to move across the keyboard. The right side is more smooth, dampened.
Is this a new common variance introduced in this OLED revision, or is it just luck of the draw (again)?
Maybe this is a better thread, but I’m wondering how widespread this is (although it’s something I’d hate to enter the Deck Roulette for again, like with my LCD. 4 tries until screen was okay): https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/181ydb7/left_trackpad_clicky_on_oled_heard_multiple/?
Out of curiosity: you also have the clicky trigger? I still think I’ll live with it. It’s something I never use in games (trigger haptics), and the difference is minimal now. You only really notice it on the keyboard, for instance. Vibrations feel the same left and right.
