I had someone tell me “your hands are small, you’ll hate the steam deck! You’ll get hand cramps reaching for the thumb stick!” I’m glad I didn’t listen to them. This thing comes with me almost everywhere, but especially when I know I’ll have a wait. I just finished Cyberpunk 2077, playing only on my Steam deck and it was fantastic. I don’t have a gaming computer, just this thing (and a Nintendo switch, but I won that in a raffle), and it handles anything I’ve tried to play so far. I hope it sticks around for at least another 5 years, cause prices are crazy lol.
It’s a 2021 and back swiss-army-knife for gaming, and 6th gen, ps2 and gamecube? We got you, fam. My Deck is the foundation of my gaming. I use it more than my Desktop out of convenience.
My hands are about average size, maybe just a little smaller, and I do in fact have difficulties reaching the thumb sticks.
It’s not a major issue. I’ve had my Deck ever since original LCD launch, and absolutely love it. But playing on something like the Legion Go S is noticeably more comfortable.
Overall, it’s probably not about hand size, but grip and preference. There are many people with small and weak hands who say the Steam Deck is perfect for them. And there are also people with big, strong hands who say that it’s a little too big or heavy.
