ROG Xbox Ally X

That's their secret of success, and why it endures despite so many more powerful devices like the Legion Go or the Rog Ally X. They sold Steamdecks at a fraction of what they could, they keep it up-to-date, they have excellent customer service, and they made the process of purchasing games easy and

Between the Switch 2, Xbox Rog Ally X and Steam Deck, it feels like the market is filling up slowly with more handhelds, which can only be a good thing imo. Developers will hopefully be more likely to make settings or even entire games that benefit these systems more and more.

Absolutely. I will always buy a game on Xbox if it’s Play Anywhere. My setup is built around it. PC in my office, Series X in the living room, ROG Ally X for on the go. Play Anywhere works like a charm.

Interesting comments so far. Game is smoother than FH5 and menu navigation seems thought through. Experience on ROG Xbox Ally X and my series X comparitively is closer than it was on FH5.

Thr Xbox Ally will have better ergonomics and 50% bigger battery The ROG Ally will have much better performance. 50-100% depending on the game. I would get the ROG unless you only want to play indie and lighter games.

The Ally X & Xbox ROG Ally X for instance has a 80W battery which is 60% higher than the Steam Deck OLED’s so you can play at a much higher wattage than the

Probably a bit blasphemous to say in the Steam Deck subreddit, but the ROG Ally X has a left stick position that would likely work better for you. IMO comfort is king with handhelds so I would consider switching to a different handheld instead of trying to find solution for Steam Deck

As ROG Xbox Ally X owner, these are all great changes. The only thing left I wish they’d address is gamepad responsiveness in the Xbox UI, especially coming out of sleep. It’s nowhere near as fast as console.

I do not think you highlighted the handheld situation enough: The Asus ROG Xbox Ally non-X (with Z2 A chip) is the weakest of the bunch followed by the Asus ROG non-Xbox Ally non-X (with Z1 non-Extreme chip), but I think they are not worth purchasing or thought at all because the Steam Deck is cheap

Something so small did, and would still, require its own dedicated library of games in order for them to run on such a small device. Even the gigantic handhelds today can't run full console/PC games without significant settings changes and lower resolutions. And the higher the settings, the faster y
