[@OjeOjeaga]

Excellent video as always man! My Ally X arrived last week and I have had a blast playing with it. Coming from my Steam Deck OLED, the sheer brute force power is a trip; I’m emulating PS3 games and playing games from every store like it’s nothing. Windows is clunky yes,- but somehow not at bad as I expected it to be. Armory Crate does a lot of the heavy lifting. The battery life is a highlight - you don’t worry about it - you just game. I’m really liking this device - even if it has given me a much better appreciation for how much the Steam Deck gets right with simplicity. They’re both great devices with different strengths. Good time to be a gamer.

[@Ifalvarado]

Try bazziteOs though i heard that windows still has better battery life. Plus how does it feel to hold compare to the steam deck oled and was no oled a dealbreaker compare to this rog ally x screeN?

[@OjeOjeaga]

@@Ifalvarado I toyed with the idea of installing Bazzite, but decided not to since I'd still be keeping my OLED around. How does it feel to hold? Oh the Steam Deck is way comfier - mostly because it's lighter. Ergonomics aren't bad on the Ally X, but you can hold the OLED for hours and not feel a thing. This boy is chunky. And for the screen, I find myself not missing OLED/HDR at all. VRR is such a great feature that I no longer have my fps up while gaming - this sorts it out. Plus for what it is, this is a nice, crisp screen. The OLED is taller, this is sharper. Again, oranges and apples 👍🏾

[@louissolano9929]

💯 did the same as you. Dualbooting Bazzite as well and it’s been a great experience so far. Armoury Crate and Windows took time to adjust but don’t regret switching to the X

[@argunciper]

I am thinking of buying one of the devices, which one would you recommend in terms of portability and battery life? I will use them mainly on long flights.

[@nicolasmariogalaxy]

Good video. One suggestion put the quality of the graphics below in every game when it appears on the video for 3 seconds. So we now how much resolution and quality graphics get you with that performance. For example you show forza, and below put 720p medium.

[@JohSmith]

I've seen the FPS number but how was your experience, did you notice any drop / input lag ?

[@DeckWizard]

No input lag or drops, the 24GB RAM helps alleviate that with a lot of the games as we are not constrained by 16GB RAM

[@GoodValues1]

Hmm i love my legion go but I’m jealous of ally x battery life. Do you think it’s worth it if i sell my legion go for 50% of the price and get the AllyX? Or should i just wait for legion go 2 which probably comes out in 2-3years time?

[@hutaozienxi]

legion go❤ have better warranty, do u have powerbank?

[@NathanGardias]

How about this you give me the legion go and you work on raising the money for the rog ally x😅

[@HolloVVpoint]

This depends on where you use your device. If it’s just at home then stick with the legion go, however if you use it whilst out and about then sell the Legion and get the ally x because the battery is significantly better. I used my legion go on a flight to the Caribbean was a 9 hour flight, had to use two power banks to get about 5 hours of game play, just replaying the ME legendary edition. Then flew to Dubai, which is 7 hours used the Ally X which by itself lasted around 5 hours. Negating the need for me to use the power banks as I slept the other, but if I did I could easily played the whole flight!

[@DeckWizard]

I'd like to think Lenovo have a newer device coming out in 2025 but could be wrong, I don't think they will wait 2-3 years especially when the market is so competitive and becoming more so. I'd probably say wait and see what gets announced in the next 6 months, especially for newer chips on the horizon.

Mindblown pc handheld 😱

[@begejekan1244]

having played a lot of games on ally x, how confident are you that it can handle future AAA games in current gen? currently wondering how future proof it is

[@ahmedel-sheltawy6594]

This

[@DeckWizard]

I'd say its fairly future proof due to the 24GB RAM but 2025+ AAA games will need to be played at Low settings with FSR3/XeSS until a newer chip is released like the 890M or above. 32GB RAM would be even better of course, although games like Dragon Age 4 and Black Ops 6 will definitely be playable on the Ally X with reasonable performance.

[@michaelortiz7804]

There’s no way it can all this demanding games!!!😮😮😮

[@gadsdad]

How are you playing Infamous 2? Thanks, God bless🙂

[@midphoenix]

I used to think how games are becoming demanding and how to get a decent 45 fps I would need a very powerful system which would be very costly as I am not a professional gamer and for me gaming isn't everything but a small part of my life that makes me happy as I play for the enjoyment,the story and fun,to have some different experience apart from my everyday life but the handheld is making me think otherwise And it's portable so I can play here and there, everywhere. Good job Asus

[@majid697]

It’s a powerful console I’m surprised

[@nikiboi2cool]

I see that it looks fine. But how did destiny 2 feel overall?

[@mansoso3903]

Love my ally x 😊

[@malikon6953]

having 8GB of Ram for the GPU and 16 for the system has made a big difference. I love the OG Ally but it does get micro-stutters sometimes. The Ally X has been very smooth for me. It's a more refined 'Ally Pro' version of the Ally. And it's more comfortable to hold.

[@joeplem5329]

How do you go about getting all these games?

[@Luluzo88]

a consultation between the asus rog ally and the lenovo legion go Which one you choose

[@DeckWizard]

The 24GB RAM is nice, we get less stutters in games and we can crank Textures up to High/Ultra in AAA games without getting a performance penalty, with 16GB RAM this is difficult to achieve. Battery life for AAA games in my testing was 3 hours for 17W and 2 hours for 25W. The Legion GO's 8.8 inch screen with the ALLY X specs would be incredible though, the GO screen makes a big difference. What are you looking for in terms of a handheld?

[@DeckWizard]

Battery life is always in the top left corner in the diagnostics. For AAA Games in my testing 3 hours for 17W 2 hours for 25W Games like Hades 2 we can get Max FPS at 1080P with 5-6 hours battery life. Indie games at 720p we can get up to 9 hours although I need to test this claim more.

I really like portable gaming and was about to sell my Ally and buy Ally X as an ultimate current gen gaming machine but from what I see specially Dragon's Dogma 2 and Baldur's Gate 3 occasionally dipping below 30fps we are not there yet and I should wait... What do you think?

[@DeckWizard]

DD2 and BG3 are tough games to run well on handhelds, I think next year we will see some improvements for those 2 games. DD2 needs more optimization from Capcom but they seem reluctant to do so and BG3 gameplay is from Act 3 the most demanding area of the game. The 24GB RAM is really nice on the Ally X and provides games alleviation when it comes to memory management compared to the Ally, we can have 16GB used for the game and windows, then also have the remaining 8GB filled for VRAM by having our Textures on Ultra which is the case in almost every game shown here 😊 Hope that helps and you have a great day!
