I love the vita, feels so good in your hands and is a great size for actually being portable.

I dont use mine as much as I used to but for a while when travelling it was my only system and I had a lot of fun with it.

I agree, it's about the perfect size for me. Just small enough to fit in my jacket pocket.

I honestly wish PC handhelds had a similar size, but they're all tablet-size. Someone had an image comparing the Vita with the Steam Deck and it puts into perspective how large handhelds have gotten.

Loved my PSP when it still worked. Size-wise, I personally think the Gameboy SP was the perfect sized handheld. That thing could fit in any pocket easily and it had a backlight.
