    I don’t want oled, I don’t want 4k. I would like better wifi, lighter, and better graphics capabilities. I can feel the blood returning to my hands when I set the deck down.

      Better wifi is basically confirmed, the certification is for a better wifi chip. The APU is the same, so same power, but maybe it could be smaller and lighter.

      That said, I think how hard you grip the deck has a bigger impact on your hand circulation. I used to have issues with my hands getting numb, but I was holding the deck too tightly. After adjusting my grip I don’t have issues anymore and find it very comfy.

      I don’t really mind the weight. It’s the shape that I can’t stand. Whereas the steam controller is shaped like /0’0\ the deck is shaped like \°| |°/ . Keeping the wrists in such a sharp angle can’t be healthy.
