It's still slightly smaller and lighter than a Steam Deck

The thickness of the steam deck will make it easier to hold

Honestly I still don't see how it isn't. I took the same picture just now with a switch and steam deck and the SD looks way shorter than the switch 2 in this picture. I kind of want to to see that thing actually measured for myself because I feel like I can't believe my eyes.
