The ally x while being better in terms of specs, it also just looks so much cleaner and simpler with the matte black finish. The white can look nice in certain circumstances and the original ally was one of them, but me personally I just disliked the white color alot. Also is that lamp supposed to look like a nuke or 😭

Well the fact that deck users keep on watching ally videos and keep promoting it in every ally videos means that they are not satisfied with the deck. I mean I prefer ally than the deck that is why I don't watch any deck reviews . Deck users trying too hard convincong themselves that they get their money's worth. The limitation it has is what is keeping them watching ally, legion go and other handheld reviews. Seems like they are envious of what other devices can do. I don't see any switch owners doing this why? because they are satisfied with the switch only deck users do this.

It's possible to start gaming nowadays for, well free really, if you've got excellent internet. But is it worth it? Not for me, for me the Rog ally X + portable monitor is perfect.

I am interested in the Ally X. I've had a Steam Deck LCD and OLED. I also have a Legion Go and agree that the screen on it is gorgeous and is a genuine competitor for the OLED Steam Deck. But fhe software experience has been pretty meh, as well as a few other minor annoyances with the device. If the Ally X has better battery life and more stable performance i think it can be a good 2nd device for me. I definitely will miss that big beautiful screen on the LeGo, but its not enough to cover all of its short comings for me. I do think that Asus should have gone with an OLED panel or at least made the screen slightly better and/or bigger though.

It’s hella playable on current ally. The performance difference is just a few frames

Great video. But here’s the thing once the steam deck has double the current battery and ups performance it will have much more battery life off charge. The fact the ally had to double the battery to get comparable battery to the 50w SD Oled. But alas I still think it’s great to be able to have access to all my games which is unfortunate for my steam deck Oled. Great device but limited.

Great video, always love listening to you. I don't have any handheld but I am definitely looking forward to getting this one. What do you think of thi Ally in comparison with the new Ayaneo devices? They seem pretty powerful too (although I do prefer the "console feeling" of the Ally) Also, I know the device will be out on July 22, but will the review(s) come out sooner than that, as far as you know?

Im a new subscriber and what got me into your content is how chill the experience is. Would love to see more games tested but for me the main draw for the gaming hand held scene are my gacha addiction haha~! I couldnt justify the obscenely priced gaming phones locally here at the southeast asia side so Im opting to buy a gaming handheld. I was thinking of getting the legion go but saw your vid on this. Can you like do some of the popular gacha games test for the legion go and rog ally x? I really wanted to buy the steam deck OLED but the anti cheat is preventing me from getting that specific handheld. anywho I hope your channel grows even more~!

I’m weird I just pair a Xbox controller to my Rog ally to avoid wearing out the joystick because of how loose it felt.

They are hall effect. They will not wear out. FFS.

I hate that I watched this video even tho I watch all your videos cos now I want the Ally X even more 😂, I own a deck oled but I can’t play my favorite games like FIFA and Destiny but the peace of mind, console like experience on the deck was the reason I purchased it and oh I had the first Ally but sold it and got the Deck oled cos of battery life and you saying the X battery life is better got me freaking hyped brother

It’s because of drivers and bios setups. They’re working on optimizing it. Similar to how a game has performance updates to remove problems

As a pc gamer , I'd rather wait for next gen handheld consoles. The performance is just too weak for my liking, especially for the price. I don't own a handheld yet but for me Switch v2/oled/2(upcoming) are the only ones worth investing for now, because of their exclusivity.

Asus knows a good content creator to have invited you there. Hopefully you had fun in Taiwan because it's one of the coolest city in Asia! (trust me, traveled to all Asian countries already) Maybe you could do a tech V-log and make it into a 25 min video in the future when you travel

Honestly no need to get the Ally if you have the Go. These are the 2 I've been looking at. The Go is awesome because the handles disconnect and also turns into a mouse which is pretty cool. They both have their pro's and cons but I'd stick with what you got unless you just really want something newer.
