Where do you put the display (phone) while holding the Dualsense, Dualshock 4, Xbox Series or Switch Pro controllers?

Laying it on a table in front of you ain't an ideal solution. Then it is too far away for a good experience and often lays in an odd angle.

I actually do put it on the table but my otterbox defender case's belt holster acts as a stand similar to how you would use a Switch with one of the cases they have out there that acts as a stand built in.

If you like such a kickstand solution on a table, good for you.

I can't enjoy games on a tiny screen 6'' - 7'' screen, if the distance to my eyes is 20'' (50 cm) or even bigger. For that distance I prefer a 10'' - 12'' tablet or a laptop screen.

When I'm holding a handheld or smartphone, the distance to my eyes is usually ~12'' (30 cm), much better immersion (IMHO).

There is also less mobility when you need a stable base to put the phone on. Works on a plane (since every seat has a table attached on its back), but not on most buses or trains, not in most waiting areas (doctor, hospital, DMV...), you can't play lying in bed/on a couch/on a deck-chair/in a hammock/standing in line...
