Valve’s biggest win with the Deck

That's their secret of success, and why it endures despite so many more powerful devices like the Legion Go or the Rog Ally X. They sold Steamdecks at a fraction of what they could, they keep it up-to-date, they have excellent customer service, and they made the process of purchasing games easy and

Do you guys take advantage of Xbox Play Anywhere if you have a PC?

Absolutely. I will always buy a game on Xbox if it’s Play Anywhere. My setup is built around it. PC in my office, Series X in the living room, ROG Ally X for on the go. Play Anywhere works like a charm.

Valve Says It's 'Hard at Work' on Steam Deck 2, but There's Still No Release Window

At same the wattage this is true but the nice thing about the Z2E handhelds is that they often have much larger batteries than the Steam Deck. The Ally X & Xbox ROG Ally X for instance has a 80W battery which is 60% higher than the Steam Deck OLED’s so you can play at a much higher wattage than the

Xbox but not Xbox

No idea wtf the other person is talking about but Xbox has been going off the deep end lately with their new price increases, causing a huge uproar. 7 year old consoles are somehow getting their prices raised 50-100 bones, Game Pass getting a huge price hike so many are unsubscribing, the ROG Ally X

I am so glad I chose the Steam Deck over the Xbox Rog Ally.

I choose an ROG Ally X because I wanted “a bigger battery”… I ended up getting a Steam Deck OLED as well later because I wanted the track pads. The interesting thing I found is that the deck is just SO optimised that the battery performance is the same as the Ally X is almost every game. Example, my

Destin was one of the lucky ones to try the new RoG Ally X and confirmed what many were wondering: Yes, he was able to install his own library and played PlayStation Studios games like Spider-Man via Steam.

...isn't that just any other normal Rog Ally though.

I love my steam deck but I’ve got one huge problem

Probably a bit blasphemous to say in the Steam Deck subreddit, but the ROG Ally X has a left stick position that would likely work better for you. IMO comfort is king with handhelds so I would consider switching to a different handheld instead of trying to find solution for Steam Deck

Is $490 good for a used Xbox ally x??

Yes, are you sure that is not a ROG Ally X (2024)? $500 is still low for that.

Ist das Steam Deck 2026 noch der beste Handheld PC?

Kommt alles sehr auf deinen Geschmack und deine bestehende Library an. Meine Subjektive Wahrnehmung der Geräte: ROG Ally Z1E ~350€ Gebraucht gibt's das ROG Ally Z1E, welches mit Upscaling und einer (von einem selbst nachträglich verbauten) 80Wh Batterie einen gerne mal 4h Witcher 3 auf 1080p 60FPS s
