One reviewer mentioned disappointment that it's still a full 11.7" long and 2" thick. I realize that some people are not built for that kind of size, but I enjoy the heft and find the ergonomics of the original pleasing. I find that it stands out among smaller equipment and any substantial reduction would limit the versatility and, quite frankly, my overall enjoyment.
Thin devices are hard to hold. I prefer girthy ones.

Also nice that the previous cases and screen protectors work.
Every other handheld tucks the right analog stick under the ABXY which makes it significantly less comfortable and way more difficult to use. Can't believe NO ONE has copied that design. Yes, it's bigger/wider but it's well worth the trade-off for the ergonomics, personally.
Indeed. I find having the interface with the flicking nub above where you just push in. It feels more organic; a more natural motion.
This comment sounds naughtier than it should ๐
Keep going I'm almost there.

I love the size of my current deck. In fact it is the coolest thing I own. But now I gotta get a new one lol
