As we’ve been saying for a long time now, Windows 11 is not a good time on a gaming handheld. Microsoft has been listening, and we’ve seen promises of a drastically different version launching with the ROG Xbox Ally — stripping away the desktop and background processes in favor of a new UI when a gaming handheld is detected.
Well, today, we got an even clearer look at how this will work, as someone has found references in Windows 11 to a new out-of-the-box experience UI for Windows 11 when it's running on a handheld. This change is long overdue, but I’m so glad it’s finally happening.
