The Xbox Ally X finally just got its promised Auto SR abilities, but I doubt most handheld players will care right now

Close up of ROG Xbox Ally X on Razer dock with Auto SR menu open.

Almost six months later, the ROG Xbox Ally X finally has the Auto Super Resolution abilities Microsoft promised at launch. The AI upscaling tools work similarly to the likes of Nvidia DLSS, but while it benefits from being baked into Windows and not needing separate integration for games, the fact that it only works in docked mode spoils its potential as a gaming handheld feature.

Auto SR on the ROG Xbox Ally X still isn't public yet, but you can give it a try if you're a Windows Insider. You'll find it in the Display menu added to the Game Bar exactly one month ago if you're signed up for early previews, and you can toggle it on once you've launched a game. That's also when you'll see a message with an angry red dot informing you that you need to connect to an external display before the feature kicks in.
