Which would you get at these prices?
Neither. I would get an ASUS ROG Ally X. Way better battery life than both of these. Nearly double. Cheaper too. I got mine secondhand for $430.

Claw 8 Ai +
The Claw 8ai+ is not only better than the Asus Rog Ally X... it is DEFINITELY THE BEST handheld you can find around 1000 euros. Technically and qualitatively. The merits are many. From the processor that is perfect, the right amount of RAM (32GB), noise and record-breaking temperatures, record-break

The Switch 2's super sluggish LCD screen is 10 times slower than a typical gaming monitor and 100 times slower than an OLED panel according to independent testing
There's a chance it isn't inevitable at this point. Asus recently said that it wasn't economically feasible to get a 1080p, 120hz VRR OLED at that form factor (mostly because it isn't mass produced right now) and the amount of power it takes to get VRR to work on an OLED that size is huge compared t

That screen is 800p, not capable of 120hz (caps at 90hz) and can’t do VRR at all. I love the screen on the SD OLED, but ASUS and Valve couldn’t get OLED screens with VRR and 120hz at that form factor (and resolution in Asus’ case) and be affordable (and the Xbox Rog Ally is a grand nearly.) to furth

Anyone else play this game in Bed?
Runs like a dream on my Asus Rog Ally, really good battery life too. Hard to go back to sitting at the computer.

Handheld pc option?
ASUS RoG Ally runs on Windows, gives you more flexibility on getting the game running and updated smoothly, and given its (the game) age it’ll run like a champ on the handheld. Minor downsides in the battery performance not being that great, but I play a lot more of my library now with it than I eve

Legion go S vs XBOX ROG ALLY X, tougher choice than you'd think
After having my Legion Go 1 for a year, I decided to jump on the Xbox ROG Ally X this month. Zero regrets. Only some minor complaints. Things I like; The device feels more solid with no wobbly controllers. Much comfier to hold. I haven't even disabled vibration on it since it just feels so much bett

400 a good deal for a steam deck?
He’s talking about the non-Xbox version with Z1 Extreme chip. I just got the ASUS ROG Ally X, which has 1TB SSD, 24GB RAM and 120hz screen, for $430 used. The battery is much larger too.

Good mods/upgrades?
Don't get the 65wh. It gives extra 40 minutes maybe. I got the original asus rog ally x 80wh battery. I get solid extra 90 minutes. Plus a 100w power bank which I use for my laptop give me another 90 minutes. In total I can play 4 - 5 hours.

ASUS ROG Ally X vs ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X
Hab eine ROG Ally X, beste Kaufentscheidung für mich was reisen und/oder Nachtschichten angeht. Steamdeck kam für mich nie in Frage. Unterschiede:- Die Xbox Ally X hat einen dedizierten Xbox-Button und startet generell in die Xbox-App als erstes, die Ally X in die von ASUS- XBOX Ally X ist bisschen
