"The ROG Xbox Ally X is the newest handheld gaming device from Asus, and the third of its kind from the company in as many years. The Xbox Ally X, along with the cheaper Xbox Ally, is made in collaboration with Microsoft's Xbox division, and features a unique design that mirrors Xbox controllers, as well as ships with a lightly modified version of Windows 11."
"The Xbox Ally X that we are looking at here is based on AMD's latest generation Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme chip. It also features 24GB of memory, a terabyte of storage, a 7-inch 120Hz IPS display, and an 80Wh battery. The cheaper Xbox Ally model swaps out these parts for an AMD Ryzen Z2 A chipset, 16GB of memory, 512GB of storage, and a 60Wh battery."
"The charger being supplied here is a 65W USB-PD unit that looks like it was pulled straight out of an Asus laptop's packaging. While the charging brick itself isn't especially big, it comes with incredibly long and heavy cables that weigh more than the charger itself. Why a portable device that pulls only 65W needs such bulky charging equipment is beyond me."
Asus's ROG Xbox Ally X is a high-end Xbox-branded handheld that mirrors Xbox controller design and runs a lightly modified version of Windows 11. The flagship model uses AMD's Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme, 24GB of memory, 1TB storage, a 7-inch 120Hz IPS display, and an 80Wh battery. A cheaper Xbox Ally swaps in a Ryzen Z2 A chipset, 16GB RAM, 512GB storage, and a 60Wh battery. The Ally X retails for $1000, roughly equal to the combined cost of an Xbox Series X and Series S or a Steam Deck plus Switch 2. The package includes a 65W USB-PD charger with long heavy cables and a cardboard stand, and the charger appears overbuilt while the stand feels underwhelming for the price.
