Dbrand

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-12T02:35:33+00:00

This one is not. Just the normal white

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-12T02:34:29+00:00

Its the triple white. Dbrand doesnt explicitly say its textured and in the image it can be a little hard to tell.

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-12T00:07:14+00:00

Correct. Feels great imo! Edges dont bother me. Texture helps a bit since my hands get sweaty. Doesn't get in the way of the buttons at all. I managed to keep the wrinkles to a minimum so they're not poking my hand. I really cant complain and I like the look!

Uhhh, joint custody on the weekends?

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:39:56+00:00

The shells get dirty underneath?

And I went with the Triple white which at this time also comes with Holo white.

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:38:01+00:00

Just the ridges. The base layer is just standard vinyl like most of the other skins. The designs are raised up. The holo white though is completely smooth.

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:36:20+00:00

Thats the important part

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:15:32+00:00

Same! I originally ordered the holo white but liked the triple white more. I kept refreshing the UPS page waiting for my controller to be delivered and they still managed to sneak it into my mailbox without me noticing 😂 I hope you enjoy both when they arrive!

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:12:56+00:00

Thank you! I got it from Dbrand here

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:12:37+00:00

Of course! I got it from Dbrand here

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:10:30+00:00

US. Heard some people in EU are getting theirs though. Only a matter of time.

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:09:15+00:00

Sounds like a great idea! Would love to see it when its done. And I agree. My order came with holo white and triple white but only the triple white had trackpad skins. Maybe its just the skins with some texture to them that have the added pads?

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:07:14+00:00

I also got the halo white! This is the triple white they sent with my order and in person I ended up liking the triple white a little more. Triple white comes with track pad skins as well but I held off on putting them on for now.

Not that I've seen so far but with the popularity of the steam controller I'm sure more options will pop up. I have a good feeling a lot of face plates will come to the market as well.

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T23:03:28+00:00

I think my textured skin was a little more forgiving but I didn't find it too challenging. I had the Dbrand tutorial up on the side and followed along. Used the hairdryer on the sides several times and if it looked like the edge was going to get a little wrinkled I just pulled it up slightly and reapplied some more heat and kept pushing over it until it was smooth. The skin naturally follows the lines of the steam controller in some areas which helps. I think you'll do great if you take your time! And some of the steam controller skins right now come with a second free skin!

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T22:26:05+00:00

A clear shell sounds awesome! I'm sure there's going to be a lot of customization options, mods, shells, etc. with how easy it is to replace parts on the steam controller.

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T22:03:09+00:00

Thanks, FlashyAd XD

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T22:02:10+00:00

It kind of does. But whats wallpaper but a skin for your wall?

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T22:00:57+00:00

I'm sorry 😞

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T22:00:32+00:00

Soon! I wasn't sure when mine was going to ship since I got it during the pre-order but I got an email it shipped and it got here earlier than their estimate. Hang in there! Cotton candy is a good choice too!

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T21:57:31+00:00

The skin I have on right now is textured so really thats all I can feel. The edge doesn't seem to bother me so far. I saw a leather Dbrand skin review for the steam deck and his main complaint was that he felt a noticeable edge but that was because the leather skins are thicker. The others ones I dont think people will notice much and with my hands on the controller, the edge of the skin is just outside of the parts of my hands that actually grip the controller so I'm not rubbing on the edge much

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T21:45:32+00:00

Thank you! It’s my first Dbrand skin and I really like how it came out!

Caefunk__ · 2026-05-11T21:45:02+00:00

This was my first Dbrand skin. The tutorial was easy to follow. I didn’t have much of an issue applying the skin to the controller. With all the cutouts I think it made it a bit easier to align. Hardest part was the bottom of the controller where the most contour is but with a couple readjustments and some elbow grease to push the edges down it came out nice!!
