I was reading a comparitive review and the reviewer said that he preferred Vive wands to Touch controllers because the Touch controllers were too small. "During our playthrough, we found the [Vive] motion controllers to be superior to the Oculus Rift’s which are a bit too small for our liking."
This is a concern. As cool as having hands in VR is, I have larger hands. Are Touch controllers going to be too small for me? Can we get some sort of a measurement of the ring's diameter? Or is there a good photo showing the controllers next to an item with a known dimension?
What we've seen of the Touch Controllers are essentially still prototype units. There's no telling, at this point, what the final product will look like or what features it will have. The Rift itself was built very intelligently (component shortage aside) with a lot of thought put into the wide array of differences between people. I would hope that they will put the same amount of thought into the final product for the Touch controllers.
There are all kinds of hand sizes. How can any company ever please everyone? They either have to provide a size option or try and at least make it fit as many hands as possible. But "too small" or "too big" is highly subjective.

They could always make a batch with larger, or smaller sized controllers. Other companies do it.

I thought, design wise, the Touch controllers were finished products. Software might still be in progress though.

That's why I'd like to find a picture of Touch next to a known dimension item. I might be able to extrapolate a rough estimate of the ring size.
