Usually I look at my cards shortly before it's my action.

Very rarely. Skilled players can do it more. "Rarely" is still better than "never". And the only way to get better is with practice.

-by waiting your turn to watch your hand, everyone will watch you while you watch your hand. It could be a disadvantage.
That doesn't really matter, since your action (fold/call/raise) speaks a lot stronger than almost anyone's reaction to seeing their cards.

-By not knowing your hand in advance, it s harder to anticipate many options when time to play.
If you don't even try to get a read on the players behind you, how much anticipation do you think you can do? Preflop is when you have the least information.

-By not watching right away at your cards, you slow down the game, which is already slow when playing live and can be annoying for other players, and we want other players to have fun playing.
Most hands are an insta-fold so they don't really slow the game.
If you have a legitimate decision, it's fine to take your time.

I was just wondering if someone had any taught about this topic. Is it worth or not to pay attention to this detail.
It's your decision. I probably can't read other players for s*** but i still try for fun. In that sense, it's worth it.
