Honestly, aside from the exhaust fan burning my hand sometimes, which is easily solved with a better grip, the anti glare screen makes it amazing for manga and books!
What app do you use to read manga on the deck?
The deck is a damn good manga reader

I’d checkout komiikku (think I spelled that wrong) but personally it’s my favorite manga app. I installed Linux on a phone just to use that instead. It’s on flathub

If you want to read within Linux, Papers is touchscreen-friendly. KOreader is probably the best touchscreen experience, once you get past its awkward but incredibly configurable interface.
My eyes are too old to read on the Deck’s screen, personally.

You could run it in gamemode and turn the clocks and tdp way down would help with battery as well
Ajzak@lemm.ee 5 days ago
it was indeed on 3 watts except for Android bootup which took a bit more juice.

Even with that low of a TDP it still gets hot ? Would trying something like Komikku instead of android take less power?

As long as you stop after the soul society arc.

Skip straight to TWBY for maximum confusion. I definitely stopped watching for the plot at some point but no ragrets.

This thing looks like a Switch with those sausages! Good on you though, I’ve never even considered using the screen vertically.

you have such large hands, you hold it like I do a phone lol
What do you use to view the manga though? Is it a website or a dedicated PDF reader or something?
