It seemed heavy at first, but I don't really notice the weight at all anymore. I find it much more comfortable to play than a lighter handheld like the switch, ergonomics are more important than weight imo.
The thickness is especially nice. I used grip attachments with the switch which at that point made it nearly as long as the Deck. They did not design those joycons for regular hands. If the controls were detachable on the deck I'd be using it as my main controller. I really want a comfortable joycons style wireless controller.
