When I hold the Steam Deck I often feel it sliding down. When holding an xbox or playstation controller I use my pinky finger to keep the controller in place. The weight of the Steam Deck is heavier and I think this is something that also contributes to this problem.
Another issue I’m having is with the thumb sticks. When playing games where both thumbsticks are constantly needed I feel, after a while that I need effort to keep my thumbs hovering above the thumbsticks, as if they stick out too far…
I do Not have small hands… But I’m looking to hear how others are holding the Steam Deck or if there is a good Ergonomic way to hold it.
I see what you mean now. Thank you for that.
Maybe it’s unfair to compare it directly to an xbox controller. The double pinky method is what I use with a regular controller and now I’m having a hard time with a specific skill based game (descenders)… Will try your other suggestions to see if I can compensate…
As with anything it takes some adaptation for sure.
