I actually let my Ally go to get the Legion Go. I loved it but the sticks were angled to the left and the SD card reader wasn’t working. It’s nice to see though that they’re continuously doing support and improvements.
The ROG Ally is Still not running Linux by default
Yeah it can only get so good before Windows starts to show its ugly face. Steam Deck works so well because it runs games within it’s own compositor with absolutely no bloat or distractions.
Honestly a positive for me . Xbox Gamepass is the main reason I have a handheld . It doesn’t work natively on Linux.
I don’t like to not own my games, but you do you.
Pro tip: you can do both ;)
Yeah I’ve played some games on GamePass on my Deck via MS Edge and xcloud. It works pretty well for anything where input lag isn’t a factor, like turn-based games.
I tried Rocket League and Forza just for shits and giggles, and while it’s not unplayable, it’s also not responsive enough to be enjoyable
Just install windows on it then?
yes but you can flash either chimera or nobara to turn it into a steamdeck
Or bazzite

lol fortunately for me my wife got me the Ally but I exchanged it for the Legion Go. It is quite a premium device. A used Steam Deck can be found for pretty cheap. And Best Buy open box can be found for under $500

Should’ve joined the trades, my guy.

If “you are what you eat” holds true, that explains a lot.
