Anyone came back to SD OLED after other more powerful handhelds?
Haven’t gone back yet BUT! Had a Steam Deck LCD. Gave it to a family member because I got a Legion Go for a very low price. Loved the screen. Did not love the ergonomics. Installed SteamOS on it as soon as the Legion Go S came out and Steam supported it officially. Ergonomics continued to irk me. Th

Selling my RX 9060xt for RM 1.6k
Unless your dad plans to buy you a laptop for your university/college studies, think you should just get a laptop or a laptop alternative. It is super useful for your studies and can do some gaming. You will need a laptop for group assignments anyway. Getting a portable thermal printer is also very

Comparing the ROG Xbox Ally X to other handhelds. Does it compete with the higher end or lower end matket [Strictly Performance Only; Don’t look at Value]
The 2025 Xbox Ally X will have about 15-20% performance uplift as compared to the 2023 ROG Ally X. The other specs are essentially the same. However, as someone who has played with both devices, the ergonomic design on the new Xbox Ally is a major improvement to the previous Ally’s. Imo, it’s far an

What are the top 3 best handhelds out right now?
I’d say MSI Claw 8ai+ is the best all rounder right now. 8 inch screen still smaller than LeGo 2, good battery size, good power with the intel chip. Only downside for me was the software and lack of support for bazzite/steamOS. A portable but more powerful option is the Onexfly F1 Pro. OLED screen i

Xbox ally x $850 or legion go s $600
Depends on what you prefer...RAM won't make a difference really Legion GO S is comfortable but xbox ally x is a whole different level of comfortable...battery will be worse and legion go s fans are silly loud while the xbox ally ones you cannot hear at all while gaming... Screen size will be huge di

Which handheld PC is better between these 2?
I have both, they are both really good, I’m still testing them to decide which one I prefer, I’m slightly leaning more towards the Ayaneo 3 at the moment: The Onexfly: lighter (~99g) fans are quieter and less whiny, although it runs slightly hotter (Ayaneo 3 fan is a lot more powerful) surprisingly

XAX vs MSI Claw 8 AI — recovering from open heart surgery and need your honest take
I'ma be honest, in your case scenario I'd go for the XAX. The msi claw is amazing and the screen is big and nice, but the issue is it is kind of uncomfortable to hold for a long period of time laying down. This is me as a 6'1 guy who works out and everything, and I got big hands. Meanwhile the XaX f

Xbox Ally X -- WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?
The hate is beyond logic... XAX has the same specs with MSI claw 8 but with AI variant of the chip that will have auto sr and a smaller screen and in Europe it costs 150€ less and more than 400€(!!!) less than legion go 2. Yes it has the inferior screen but its way cheaper than all other handhelds.

Best Handheld PC?
You could play all listed ganes on the steam deck which is a much lower price then other handhelds. If your against the steam deck. Rog Xbox Ally X will probably have the best ergonomics. Legion go 2 has the best screen and an extra 8gbs of ram. Msi Claw 8ai+ is the most powerful available. Decent s

MSI CLAW 8 Ai+ or the Xbox ally X.
I have the claw and while I love it, the other day I went into a best buy and held a XaX. It was so comfortable on my hands that I was low-key jealous. With that said, even if it has a smaller screen I still don't mind, it's not like I'm blind ASF. Of course that could be an issue to you. ALSO MSI c
