Ergonomics
Ergonomics is grip comfort, weight distribution, button reach, and how the device sits in your hands across a long session — and it is the attribute least captured by a spec sheet and most decisive for daily happiness. A powerful handheld that is a brick to hold gets played less than a modest one that disappears into your grip. We treat ergonomics as owner consensus, labeled as such, because it is subjective and hand-size-dependent — but a broad chorus of “it is uncomfortable” is a real verdict.
