No obnoxious loud music, no stupid jokes, no gifs or memes in between. Just straight up great review. Subscribed!!

Sold my ally z1e for 400 took that and put it to an ally x, so only paid about 448 after tax for the ally x..imo a no brainer at that out of pocket cost.

I love the Ally X. I was primarily using the Ayaneo 2 before. It has a better d-pad, brighter display, and amazing joysticks. Problem is it would get too hot and the software support was lacking. Despite the battery size being 50 wh, had poor battery life (I'm sure contributed by bad thermals and need to constantly have fans running). The Ally X is a complete game changer for me. The fact that it has an amazing battery life makes it actually useable as a portable device. I use the viture pro glasses if I really want an OLED screen, but I think the built in screen is already fantastic!! I can't stop playing it, my eyesight is getting worse lol.

Went to a local best buy and got to hold on in my hands. It feels nice! The only issue is I'm waiting for strix point apu. So Ally 2 I'll be there there.

An upgrade from the first Ally x for sure, but lets be honest. Compared to all the other devices on the market right now, the decision is difficult!

[goldfingerhardcore]

Yes, it is worth it. I love mine. Sold my ROG Ally and got the X one as it fixed the main issue I had with it, I.e. battery duration.

[comadoof]

The new back paddle button position makes it useless for FPS, you know what back buttons are for. The orginal back buttons are way better

Once valve makes their own steam os for rog ally x it’ll definitely be a tough decision on what I want to upgrade my lcd steam deck too

There are 3 devices I purchased from Aya Neo although 2 were used that costs about as much as the Alley X or more, but they all do something special. One has OLED display & is legitimately pocket sized, one has a dual display & one has a sliding keyboard. The Alley X does nothing special in comparison to these other models & although I’m sure it’s a solid device it’s simply not worth that price while not doing anything in particular that something else can’t do. You can get a device with a 60 watt battery & an 8, 000 series chip btw & since the 8000 chip can run at lower tpc levels I bet it can produce the same battery wise as that 7000 series Alley X chip b/c you can’t run the 7000 series below 12 watts while you can run the 8000 series chip at 8-10 watts. So even battery life isn’t revolutionary.

I will hold out until they release oled version

[MikuCobraCole]

My main problem is the price, here in EU it's 899€ 😅

[BlueshellGamer]

Yes it is.think, youll pay 1800 for a gaming laptop. And while the proce of 1599 AU is ridiculous. Usd price isnt that bad.

[VaibhavAgain]

just a quick question,
Should i get the Elgato wave3 or the samson q9u?
I have a (noisy background) and also not looking for xlr now...
If you have any better recommendations, please tell

[Joshiswatchin]

Yes it's well worth it definitely if you travel and have kids. I own both versions love them great laptops lol

[hk]

My only problem is with the screen bezel . They look horrendous. I will stick with the deck oled . It's just a better overall device .
