Are there handheld monitors? Like a handheld pc (steam deck) without the pc, just a monitor with a controller built into it? (lemmy.world)

I'd say this is probably the best answer depending on the use-case. If you're looking for a monitor, with a program like XS Overlay or OVR Toolkit (not OVRAS but the other one) VR can give you as many virtual monitors you want at any given size. You can surround yourself in a circle of screens from head to toe if you want, it's an experience all in itself lol.

I remember reading about stock people using VR to track stock trends. Makes sense, honestly.

I personally wouldn't recommend the Meta VR headsets though, but I understand the appeal given the minimal other options currently on the market.
