There have been reports that the LE steam deck that has the BOE display and clear plastic makes it lighter than the regular model with the Samsung display and solid black. Approx. 20g lighter which is significant considering the regular OLED is 29g lighter than the OG deck. I’m just curious if anyone can confirm this?

    I haven’t measured and I don’t have a regular OLED to compare to, but it feels like a feather in your hand compared to the LCD. It’s nuts how much lighter it feels.

    Can also confirm yes, weighed the regular OLED and the LE and the LE is about 20g lighter. There is a slight noticeable difference holding both in your hand.
