      Maybe, but they all seem to be USB4 - so that's not setting the standard, that's following the standard.
      The 2280 SSD is a great choice - but not the only one doing that either. Same with RAM.
      It's only the battery that is really that leading. Screen not being OLED is also a problem.

    call me crazy but I just preordered the Ally X to produce music and record vocals on FL Studio. I got a few games I've been wanting to play on Steam too like "Fading Afternoon" a fun 16 bit game similar to "Friends of Ringo Ishikawa" that I played on Switch. I know I could probably find a laptop but like the fact that the Rog Ally is a little more portable and I also like the fact that it's a little bit cheaper and a little bit stronger than all the laptops in it's price range. I've already seen a few people producing on FL Studio on the original ROG Ally. I hope my experience on the X could be just as good if not better

    The larger your hand size the more you would want buttons and sticks right next to each other which is why the steam deck is perfect for me. If you have to choke up on the device a bit then the 45° angle for buttons and sticks makes much more sense.

      You know something that's good, they are partnering with Gulikit in having aftermarket hall effect sticks. They also designed it in a way that's fairly easy to change them out. Too bad they didn't just put those on to begin with.

      Exactly. Almost 1000 Dollars for a device they should have put out in the first place. I'm just gonna wait till the Ally 2 to come out. I just got my ally a month ago for 599.99. Now I would get it if Asus offered 50% off with trade in if your still under warranty. In that case heck yes I would. But they will never do that.

    I'm curious about the performance with crysis remastered with while overclocking the cpu cores with the max clock speeds and gpu max clock speeds with msi after burner with the max tdp on any of the handheld gaming devices. There are users that still overclock there windows devices and want to know about the performance but does not get mentioned in any of the videos. Not everyone wants malware and bloatware like windows co pilot ai crap like recall and anything related to ai. Whenever I go to youtube, it's like ai is the most talked about ever since entering 2024. When the manufacturers says that ai is on device, I take it with a grain of salt everytime because they say one thing and do the complete opposite of what they say by being hypocrites about it. It's worse when the manufacturers lie and than get caught but than gets swept under the rug because it has become normalized because everyone is doing.
