I’m cool with that, more choices is better, even if they’re fairly similar.

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Yup. Most smartphones are very similar, yet I am happy it's not just one Samsung out there.

I agree, but as a mobile dev I wish they'd leave the OS alone instead of "optimizing" it, creating new exceptions to the rule and edge cases in the process...

I mean it'd be a lot cooler if they made something that actually brought something new to the table...

This one looks like my wife could actually hold it too.

The deck is great, but it's definitely bulky and heavy.

[–] sonalder@lemmy.ml 6 points 13 hours ago

As a SteamDeck owner I must say it doesn't feel heavy at all and the weight is really well balanced, but yes it's quite bulky compared to a Nintendo Switch or Switch Lite for exemple.

As long as it brings down prices of others, competition is good.
