I recently was deciding between the Steam Deck and a Switch 2, and at the end I chose the Switch 2 because of the lighter weight. I thought the Steam Deck would be too heavy for my weak hands. After spending some time with the Switch 2, I found it also being too heavy for longer gaming sessions.I bought a grip case to make it more ergonomic to hold, but still it gets tiring in less than an hour.
The Switch Lite has the perfect weight, but too many games have tiny text and UI designed for bigger screens.

Better yet a Deck Lite with the same graphical power but is lighter and with better battery life. Like how the Switch Lite is to the original Switch. If they can make it the same weight as the Switch 2, I might get one.
