So this thing looks absolutely amazing, but still sports a 19oz size(560g). For reference, my phone is only 7oz (201g). The steam deck (roughly 22oz), which i regularly hold with two hands, can start to cause pain in the wrists.

I'm sure the kind of person to buy this phone isn't holding it for numerous hours, but thats still A) a lot of weight to lug around B) I'd imagine it will begin to strain the wrists quickly. Maybe that's a pro though...

Edit: Mind didn't complete my thought, added words.

Wow, that's only 100g less than the Steam Deck... That's nuts.
