Steam deck screen gets really really hot, is this normal?
Hello all, when I play demanding games on my steam deck for a long time, The screen gets really really hot, not just warm, but really really hot.

The temps are at a constant 71-75 degrees though on the cpu and gpu. Is it normal for the screen to get this hot?

if you're playing demanding games for a long time, yea, the screen will get hot.

But it's safe right? They anticipated this will happen?

Ok, I just thought it might damage the screen if it keeps happening over time. It was hot enough that it could almost somewhat give you a slight burn if you put your skin long enough on it. That's why I was worried.

Worst thing that can happen is that the heat is going to melt the adhesive over time. I noticed that on my deck, the screen got a bit lose.
