What pc handheld should I get that is not super expensive?

Shop used. I recently picked up an OG Legion Go for $580 in a country where tech is notoriously expensive. I can recommend the Legion Go if you're not looking for something super compact or if you're okay with either shit battery life or upgrading the battery yourself. Otherwise, look into an Asus R

What is a good alternative to the steam deck! It looks genuinely uncomfortable? I want to be able to dock it as well if possible.

A rog ally with the z1e is great, I use it myself But if you want to you can even buy the xgm from asus which is expensive but with a gpu like the 4090 or even a 3070 (all mobile versions) are awesome, maybe not that much value but it will give you the best dock experience

Should i cave in and get a Steam Deck through FB Marketplace? What was your experiences if you bought from there.

I would think Ebay is safer, but if you’re looking for a deal, FB Marketplace or r/hardwareswap. I used Marketplace to snag an Asus ROG Ally X + Spigen travel case for $450 last week. Quick check, Didn’t see any visible scratches, buttons/sticks felt/sounded fine, so paid them then & not had any iss

Steam deck or legion go?

Shitty. Really shitty. I ended up returning it and getting a used ASUS ROG Ally X (2024) for $430. It has 94% battery health and it’s been fantastic. So much more comfortable to hold and the battery is way way better.

400 a good deal for a steam deck?

Funny that you have the audacity to call people childish when you care about reddit karma 😂. And ya still get downvoted more like BRUH 😂It’s nice that 6 months ago you got a half decent deal but that’s not what the pricing is atm in the vast majority of places man. I mean ya clearly don’t know what

Lenovo Legion Go 1 vs Rog Ally X, is there much difference?

My point is that when they call it an Xbox handheld, it's really about where they are going in the future with the Xbox. In the past the Xbox has always been a console and you bought games for it that were designed for it and it alone. Then Microsoft came out with "Xbox Play Anywhere" and what that

Msi claw 8ai + still good handheld in 2026 ?

Die Go s und der onexplayer Apex haben die beste Ergonomie. Das Xbox Ally x hat zu dicke Griffe für kleinere Hände. Die Go 2 liegt auch sehr gut in den Händen ist halt etwas schwer. Die Intel claw ist flach und drückt etwas in die Handfläche aber bei den Fingern top. Steam deck auch top, aber go s b
