I like the new UI.
i am kinda surprised and happy with how Asus & Microsoft are bringing this new experience to my OG Rog Ally. I will now basically NOT buy the new one due to that, but trust me, i will buy the generation after it. They lost a short term sale now, but i am in for the long game now. And I really like i

Switch 2 Incoming
I’ve played on a few handhelds so I can clarify, the Steam Deck is much more bulky and less ergonomic than the Switch 2. As well it’s a Linux based system so if you don’t use the Steam version you need to use different workarounds and it’s not the most efficient thing in the world. I’ve also used an

Você se importa em jogar jogos antigos com gameplay datada?
Não, meu dispositivo principal existe quase que exclusivamente para emulação e eu adoro ele (Asus ROG Ally). Jogo desde o Atari e não tenho problemas com gráficos ou designs antiquados, geralmente tento relevar com base na sua época.

Not just the software between the original go and the ally x the idle power management and sleep is so much better in the Asus device to the point where windows dare I say is enjoyable. I also have the legion go s with steam os and tbh it's fairly comparable apart from instant wakeup which windows a

Unpopular opinion, the steam deck and the original z1 extreme ally are still the best handhelds on the market.
I don't know that this is an unpopular opinion. As someone who owns or has owned several handhelds, I don't disagree with you. 2026 with all it's price insanity has allowed a little of the FOMO to retreat and evaluate what's what with the handheld marketplace. Sure, there are absolutely iterative el

What is the best budget PC handheld money can buy?
Used ASUS ROG Ally running Windows if you need it, Bazzite if you can avoid it. Buy an extended JSAUX battery upgrade for the unit to address its main deficiency of poor battery life. That’s it these days. Everything else will be above your budget.

Things to do when you first get your Ally
Use the website rog ally life to help guide you on best settings. If you don't go to sketchy sites or download sketchy files you might disable memory integrity /core isolation for a couple more fps. I only recommend this if you strictly game and don't torrent/ download things that may have malware /
