I am interested in steamdeck but I have heard that it is really heavy if you are holding it for many hours. (kbin.social)

Does this console worth it? Also how hot does it get in the summer if you are doing demanding things without AC?

It’s definitely heavier than say, a Nintendo Switch. But I got used to it quickly… and don’t have issues holding it. When playing in bed, it typically rests on my chest anyways.

As for heat, I find the fan noise (for demanding games) is more annoying than any heat being generated. And for non-AAA games, you can limit the power to keep it from running loud/warm.
