This well-worn issue in the debate area of handheld gaming falls to Asus ROG Ally X, the child of years-old Asus Ally and much new hardware and other features to verify itself. One would ask, is ROG Ally X really a game-changer or just a mature version? Let's dive deep.
Design and Build Quality of Asus ROG Ally X
The design of the new ROG Ally X tablet differs very little from that of its predecessor but has taken a more mature approach. Sure, makes it heavier and thicker, but way more comfortable in the hand. It is also considerably better suited for longer gaming sessions owing to a matte finish and improved controller.
Performance and Specifications
Ally X features the same AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor; however, this one has ramped up the RAM to 24GB LPDDR5X storage now available as a 1TB NVMe SSD, thereby letting it run almost any recent high-end game with utmost ease. Full support for Windows 11 means that you can use it as a proper desktop computer as well, if you want.
Battery Life: Most Profound Difference Ever
ROG Ally X excels when compared to its predecessor in every sense of the word-battery life. It ultimately packs in an 80Wh battery, and that is double the previous 40Wh, so expect a lot of treats inside to keep the gamer busy for an extended time before having to charge the gaming machine again.
The Software and User Experience
The new Armoury Crate SE is much more user-friendly: game launcher, performance tuning, creating custom profiles - everything is a million times easier than in the previous version.
Price and Availability
As such, Asus ROG Ally X is on the expensive end, but of course, the upgrades justify the price. In Bangladesh, it is readily available through selected retailers.
Should I Buy or Not?
If you are a hardcore gamer looking for a powerful gaming device that can fit in your pocket like a cellphone, the Asus ROG Ally X is surely a choice worth referring to. Perhaps not revolutionary, but it's a fully realized, mature, long-lived handheld gaming device.
