  • If it's not too too heavy, I'm not opposed.

    Bigger screen will make touchscreen typing on a keyboard less of a PITA

    Some games require rarely typing into the on screen keyboard, and as much as I like my ROG Ally, the small screen makes the onscreen keyboard a real pain to type on

    Honestly what I'd like is a secondary N64 style center back handle that I can hold with 1 hand while I type with the other, to make the typing way more stable.

    Awkwardly holding it out on the left side way off center fulcrums it as I type, which makes it less stable. You need some genuine wrist strength to fight against that lever action while typing.

    So, instead, I usually awkwardly rest it in my lap while I try and type so it's stable at least. But this moves the screen a lot farther away so now I gotta squint at the small ass letters as I aim and type. Makes me feel like a goddamn boomer having to adjust my glasses and squint at the screen.

    So... yeah I dunno, I feel like this is something that could use a better solution.

    I guess I could use my Tap XR... 🤔

    • I have a onexplayer and it's freaking heavy as hell. I love the steam deck. It is better in every aspect, especially the ergonomics of it. I despise how all of these devices have the right joystick under the buttons. It's so awkward
