When we reviewed the Asus ROG Ally last month, we liked it but didn’t necessarily love it as the Steam Deck killer we were hoping for. Given there was a brand spanking new AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme chipset in here, we didn’t get the performance we expected.
Fast forward one month (and a ton of updates) later, the ROG Ally has really come into its own as the dominant gaming handheld. Not only have there been some handy quality of life features and a ton of bug fixes, but we’re seeing some huge improvements in game performance – the kind of speed bumps we were expecting over Valve's handheld.
