Are there handheld monitors? Like a handheld pc (steam deck) without the pc, just a monitor with a controller built into it that has a HDMI and USB port coming out of it which you will stick into your PC?

    Yes, they are called mobile or portable monitors. I have an Asus ZenScreen which is alright. Some have HDMI, some have USB-C.

    E: Wait, do you mean a built-in gaming controller or a technical one, like a USB controller which handles converting to a USB signal internally?

      I was thinking it would look like the steam deck but have a hdmi port (or usb-c port) for video and audio (or at least video) and a regular usb port for the controller. I am fine with being tethered to my pc since I can get long cords and I would prefer do use this monitor and controller without batteries if possible.

      I will check out the portable monitors and see if I can make it work. My goal is to game in my bed before bedtime and I do not want to buy a big TV in my room just to have a clear picture.

        Now I got it. I haven’t seen such a device either. Maybe a portable monitor + game controller could work for you.
