Microsoft’s First-Party Xbox Handheld “Essentially Canceled,” According to New Report

Great, so now Microsoft will never make an Xbox handheld that would actually appeal to me. If it can't natively play my Xbox console library, then I won't buy it. It's honestly such a dumb decision to cancel the handheld and jump into the already-crowded PC handheld market with an ASUS Rog Ally that

ASUS ROG ALLY FAILURES (3rd time)

The original ROG Ally’s had terrible QA. Asus did step up their game a lot on the Ally X and Xbox Ally X, but I can totally understand being burned by them. Three separate motherboard failures is kinda insane. Maybe consider the MSI Claw 8ai+ as your next handheld? Its specs absolutely demolish the

Stuck between 2 options, please help!

People are overstating the performance difference - it’s 25% better at 17W and 13% better at 25W. However, I’d still go for an XAX. I’ve seen countless stories on r/ROGAlly about people’s Allys having defects, build quality issues, getting fucked by Asus warranty service, etc. Seems like the XAX is

Which handheld will suit me most?

So everything you want so far is on Steam Deck and here's why it's a better choice, unless you're into a specific ecosystem games like Mario/Pokemon no other handheld will ever beat Steam Deck, because the support for steam deck will never stop since steam will never go out of business. And since th

Question Time: What made you buy the SteamDeck?

I had an Asus ROG Ally but it died. Steam deck was cheaper to get new than a used Ally. So I did.

Szerintetek melyik jelenleg a legjobb kézi konzol?

asus és microslop borzasztó kombó, az ally-t nem ajánlom egyáltalán, hiába okés hardver ár-érték arányban. 1,5 évet volt meg kb, borzasztóan instabil az oprendszer, és 2x korruptálta a saját ssdjét félbeszakadt letöltések miatt, újra kellett raknom. ilyenkor ugye mindened elveszik. nekem a kontrolle

[RPCS3] MCLA performance with Ryzen 5 7600X and RX 7900 XT

No idea. It might run on a high end handheld console like the Asus ROG Ally X though it's a gamble. Better roll with a gaming laptop instead of gambling on a handheld just to play emulated games.

Wait for Asus rog phone 10 specs or just get the red magic 11 pro

Asus is bad. That is why they are dead. Asus is scum. They refuse to fix rog ally. It's worldwide issues. Many PC gamer already boycott Asus.

The EU launched a video showcasing how life would be without it.

Exactly this, I have a USB-C cable that goes up to 120watts and has DP output up to 4k/60. I have seen cables that look exactly the same, don't output video and are 30watts max. Both don't mention specs, so annoying. But... there is still the charger issue, sustained 240watts vs 240watts charging is

New ROG 100W gaming charger dock not working properly

I never use ASUS chargers. The quality and build is just subpar for whatever reason. My go-to brand is Anker with high quality 3rd party 100W cables. I'm on my 2nd ROG Ally since the first launch and I've never had issues with Anker. Both of my included ASUS 65W chargers have failed.
