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?

Well, most things probably get heavy if you're holding them for many hours. It all depends on your posture and seating arrangement. Can you lean on a table or desk? Playing on transit? Are you sitting on the couch? Standing somewhere? If you can find ways to lean your arms and hands on something, it can help a lot.

There are also lots of cases and stands that can prop up the Steam Deck so you can play with a controller, which is a bit lighter. You have lots of options.
