    That’s because it isn’t. You may get a few more FPS out of it than the Steam Deck in some games but overall it’s a much worse experience.

      User experience is more than raw performance numbers. In my personal opinion, the Steam Deck is still easier and more enjoyable to use.

      And I mean the deck is pushing 120 for me docked when I want it anyway. OLED does 90 on screen I think? (I have original).

      At almost double the price I just don’t see why anyone would choose the ally unless they truly want the most powerful handheld experience (for now) specifically and money just isn’t really an issue.

      My only thing is the steamdeck still feels a bit janky in certain situations. I’m curious if the ally has the same issues. I Routinely have issues switching from desktop to gaming mode, docked to undocked, things like that. I definitely don’t recommend the steam deck to people who aren’t comfortable tinkering and configuring away small gripes. But I love it regardless
