My problem with ally x is i couldnt sleep until 4am 😢

[moethep]

I bought the ally x and steam deck both last week and decided I would return the one I like less. Steam deck 512gb was 600 after tax while the ally x 1tb was 850. So 250 more but double storage. I fully went into it thinking I would keep the steam deck and even debated not buying the ally x after watching videos like these. Most YouTuber seem to favor the steam deck. For me the ally X blows the steam deck out the water. The native game pass is huge, better performance, plug in and now I have a pc, and can play every game in 120hertz at 1080p with great battery too. It’s a case by case situation. I’m trying to give the steam deck a chance and play it more but besides the oled and touchpads there’s nothing that makes it better while the ally has so many appealing features. I think it’s a preference thing but I’m glad I gave it a shot or I would have missed out. People make windows seem like it’s so complicated but it’s super simple imo, if you have zero technical skills though I’d go with the steam deck for ease of use. at the cost of limiting some options. They’re both great with different features for different people.

just get it open box for $650 problem solved

If you can spend 600 you can spend 800 it’s not exactly much more considering double the battery and storage

[DizzyDYaDigg]

You cannot get a Steam Deck AND A proper gaming laptop for $800. There is not a gaming laptop under $1000 competing wit the Ally X

I almost bought one. I had an Open Box ally X in my cart. It was excellent condition for $713, and after going to check out, it was $756 after taxes. I thought bout it and realized I don't really need it. I have a powerful gaming PC with a 4090 card. I will just play my games on it. The funny thing is I just sold my Asus ROG ally Z1 Extreme with the upgraded 2TB and My Steam Deck with the 1TB because both of these weren't being used. They just sat looking pretty and collecting dust. But, It is an amazing machine! I wouldn't mind having it. But, like you said, the price! It is up there. 😉👌

In Singapore, just 2 weeks after the official launch here, already there are discount deals of up to 25% off the retail price for brand new ally X. That makes it a no brainer for anyone who wants a good handheld pc

[egjream]

I disagree, the better battery life is such a big deal

[ArchieDeZ]

Ally X + 4TB SSD + 1TB Micro SD + Power Bank + Docking Station + monitor (if you didn't have it already) + eGPU (if you didn't have a PC or Gaming Laptop) = $2500++

I don't understand the whole price argument about the ally x when it has 1 TB of storage. Your going to eventually upgrade the storage in your pc handheld, and its going to cost you $100 or more which puts you at either $50 less than the Ally X or the same price. This has to be psychological, people would rather pay $699 for the old ally and then upgrade to 1 TB or more which puts them at $800 and that makes no sense make to me

Great concept but I only want one device. That’s why I’m sticking with the OG Z1 Extreme Ally until The next gen model comes out.

This thing is $1570 after tax and 2 years of Best Buy protection here in Canada…$1244 after tax without BB protection. Hell no…you can damn near buy a laptop with a 4060 in it for that price that will crush it in performance and longevity. Yea it’s not a handheld but still portable…and meanwhile the Legion GO is on sale here for $749. There’s no way in hell the X is worth $400 more then the GO.

You guys are just gonna have to get your money up. Prices are just going to continue to increase.

[kurdapiok]

Im going to wait for the next gen, time to save my pesos.

[doomguy]

For this price point gaming laptop makes more sense i brought steam deck cuz i cant find any laptop at this price point in my country

[bluesoulzero]

Dont forget OG ally z1 extreme has the risk to burn your sd card but the ally x so far no issue and you can play games with anti cheat and you can use a vr set with not so many hoops and loops like the deck. Depends on what everyone wants

Хорошее доработанное устройство. Цена завышена, но устройство тоже не обычное, нацелено конкретно на игровую аудиторию
