Steam Deck dev Pierre-Loup Griffais went to twitter to share multiple images of Steam Deck prototypes from mid-2019 to now. He even showed off one that was actually bootable.
As part of the Asia launch press event, we made the design lab into a showroom of development history. My favorite are the playable prototypes: bootable Deck family tree from mid-2019 to now, from a couple of hand-built units onto gradual mass production. pic.twitter.com/TpU5I8D50p

The best part is that they (mostly) all still boot, serving as an exciting reminder of how far things have come since.
This one has a Picasso APU, at about half of the GPU power of the final Deck. The flatter ergo was an interesting experiment and taught us a ton about comfort. pic.twitter.com/yLwTtDDYlo
