The ROG Xbox Ally Is Officially A Steam Deck Killer

With Steam Deck prices hitting outrageous numbers right now—ranging from $789 all the way up to $949 USD—finding a budget-friendly X86 handheld PC is tougher than ever. In this video, we are looking at the ultimate Steam Deck alternative: the $599 retail ROG Xbox Ally. Powered by the AMD Ryzen Z2 A APU (4-Cores/8-Threads of Zen 2 power), this device is a serious value proposition. We completely wiped Windows 11, installed official SteamOS, and put it through its paces. We even get full RGB support working within SteamOS using Decky Loader and the HueSync plugin!
