Asus ROG Xbox Ally X20 Pros and Cons

88

The new Asus ROG Xbox Ally X20 is a significant upgrade compared to last year’s model, but at the same time a bit disappointing. The changes to the chassis with rubber grips, improved sticks and buttons are great and it also looks fantastic with the semi-transparent chassis and yellow and gold accents. It just feels like a premium device. The biggest change, however, is the new and larger 7.4-inch OLED screen.

The 20th Anniversary Edition of Xbox Ally X feels and looks amazing. If you really love OLED displays and want the most comfortable handheld, this is the one for you.

A tribute to the ROG brand, the Asus ROG Xbox Ally X20 is a cool collector’s item with a great new OLED screen and an eye-catching design. However, with performance roughly on par with last year’s Xbox Ally X, it’s a tough sell for $1,299.

The Asus ROG Xbox Ally It is extremely comfortable for long gaming sessions and has an impressive battery life. The downside is that devices like this are affected by the current RAM and storage crisis. So I love it, but not everyone can afford it.

Like the Xbox Ally X, whether you think the ROG Xbox Ally X20 is worth the money depends on the games you play. If you’re primarily a Steam gamer, it might not be worth it. But if you have games spread across multiple stores, you’ll probably appreciate the flexibility.

The Xbox Ally and Xbox Ally The X20 have some software quirks that I unfortunately expect from Windows handhelds. However, if you have the money for it, it’s hard to think of a better handheld gaming PC you could buy right now without buying a $2,000 device.

And until I take a closer look at Intel-based alternatives, returning to the Ally reminds me that if you can accept that it’s still a portable PC rather than a dedicated handheld console, it still offers a good experience – one made even better by its beautiful display.

If you’re looking for a powerful handheld gaming PC but don’t want to spend more than $2,000 on a Windows 11 handheld like the MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ or the Lenovo Legion Go Gen 2; The Ally X20 seems more like the best Goldilocks option. The OLED screen is a nice addition to a handheld console with decent battery life and a mostly versatile operating system. The Ally
