The steam deck feels very heavy holding it in everyway. It feels the heaviest in its hand grips. Does that feeling go away? It feels like I'm trying to hold a laptop.

The last handheld I had was a n3ds xl, too, and that felt a little heavy then too.

I read somewhere, maybe reddit, maybe here, someone used an articulated tripod for tablet to support their deck for them. It could be a solution for you, at home.
