Legion Go screen every time for me. I bought this to play one game, Wuthering Waves recently launched and it handles this at maximum system resolution and in game graphics set to max never dropping below 45FPS. I always play plugged in though in Performance mode and 30 Watts
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. In our tests, the battery of both consoles did not perform well. Of course, as you know, battery performance can be slightly different for different consoles and in different conditions.
@@MulavagiliSrikanthI have them both… I honestly would just buy an OLED… 720P is fine at that size and you don’t need more hardware for a 720P decent AAA experience… at least not yet. If you did get the Ally, just wait a month or so and get the Ally X… It’s a slightly juiced up version of the Ally Extreme with faster RAM and some fixes on some of the things… BUT, as I say that, I might just get myself the Zotac handheld… If they make a bazzite spin for that, then you have a real steam deck alternative.
@@MulavagiliSrikanth If you plan to play Steam games exclusively and experience a better user experience, Steam deck. ROG Ally if you want more versatility.
I have to say I do agree with the legion go screen, but the heavy weight does get tiring on long sessions. Battery is crap so you need it plugged in always to get any decent fps and the screen gets toasty warm. Resident evil was the demo on the MSI at the shops now I know it was because it is one of the few games it can actually play well. However, it is surprisingly comfortable to use. I feel like Asus has won this battle overall.
Interesting how steam deck wins in performance in your tests, when in reality the latest AAA games do not run well on steam deck and the legion go has no problem.
I hope we will see Z2 extreme processors in 2025 or earlier. These devices are great and have great potential, but they are not sufficient for today's AAA games.
Handheld consoles have many limitations for playing AAA games. Because the manufacturing companies have to design the dimensions of handheld consoles in such a way that it is possible to move them, as a result, designing a cooling system that can help the console in heavy processing will be very challenging. However, the next generation of Asus and Steam consoles will definitely be much more attractive.
That was a very very good comparison man but man the music all over the whole video was annoying so much. Cant hear u very well its too loud and its not needed in first place .. also my question when r the new SD is gonna drop? Is there any news im thinkin of buying the available one i just don’t wannabe disappointed after . Cuz im really thinking of buying a handheld console im just going back n forth in my mind between legion go or SD ..man I flipped and keep changing my thoughts about them around thousands times for the past two weeks im confused like which one i wanna buy that wont be a disappointment for me afterwards because ive seen lots of lots of reviews and its always has the same ups n downs for both consoles i just wanna buy a very good console and be able to play main games not the indy small games .. and i wanna be able to play them very good with no issues.. i dont wanna buy a console for indy games its really stupid idea i wanna be able to play PlayStation games on a handheld console and i really am going back n forth on which one is gonna be good for me and give me about same the PlayStation experience i get from playing on their console . Please i want ur real answer for me 🙌🏻
First of all, thank you for the good thing you told us about the sound of the video. Regarding handheld consoles, considering that you expect to be able to play games with the quality that is played on the PlayStation console, it must be said that currently none of the handheld consoles have this capability. Between Lenovo consoles and Steam Deck, based on our reviews, Steam Deck offers a better experience. Also, the news indicates that we should not wait for the next generation of the Steam console for at least another year and a half. Therefore, our final suggestion to you is that if the graphic quality of the games is of primary importance to you, do not buy a handheld console for now, but if it is important for you to be able to play wherever you want, the Steam console is a good option.
@@DigiTechMag good advice i knew those devices just not it when it comes to playing with no issues like the PlayStation console itself and what makes it hard even more for me to buy one of those is the prices just not worth it . I better buy a ps5 and a big tv screen with those prices especially in my country its very expensive those devices all comes around 750$ - 800$ its way expensive than original prices 🤷🏻♂️
The Asus ROG Ally X is a very attractive handheld console that, at least on paper, shows significant improvements over its predecessor. This console will be released at the end of July and its initial price is considered to be around 800 and in some markets 900 dollars, which is very high. We will have a comprehensive review on it in the coming weeks.
@@DigiTechMag yea ive seen couple of reviews about it but there wasnt much information about the gameplay exactly. Someone said he played cod on it and it did very well but idk about other major games too. But if that price doesn’t get lower ik for sure they will lose ppl cuz what the heck is this! I better buy me a ps5 plus big tv screen plus the ps5 remote play controller and i would still have money to buy other tech stuff . This doesnt make any sense for a handheld console its too pricey
Right, see in comparison sites that compares CPUs, all of these CPUs should outperform a Ryzen 5700g desktop. But they won't. Games can be run in 4k on a 5700g with it's onboard GPU. Mobile chips just cannot compete to a desktop. Even when the CPU comparisons say otherwise.
Ayaneo 2 is a little older than the consoles reviewed in this video, and of course, due to its very high price, it has not been able to attract much attention from gamers. Of course, this console has good hardware, but its release at the same time as the first generation of Steam Deck and its huge price difference made it not welcome.
The competition would definitely be more attractive. However, the world of handheld game consoles is very unpredictable. Until two years ago, few people thought that Steam would be able to release a good handheld console.
Thank you for sharing your opinion. Both terms are correct, however, since we're only looking at them from a gaming perspective here, we'll use the latter. Please note that the first use of these devices is to play portable games. For this reason, joysticks have been used in them.
Yes, both consoles are confirmed, although they may enter the market under other brand names. We have a video on the channel that you can see on the possible details of the Nintendo Switch 2. Soon we will post an interesting video about the specifications of the next generation of the Steam handheld console.
The internet is the wild west, where anyone and their mother can be a reviewer of anything and everything. No this is what a return policy is for. Try it out for yourself and not on the words of some stranger on the net. No offense but what makes you different than the thousands of other of DIY reviewers on gaming products? All claim the same " I speak the truth and every one else doesn't" . Millions more if you count all the other items and things people review. Hell I could do a review of a review of a review. 😆 This is why I try things out myself and never go on reviews.
Hello dear friend. Nobody can not claim that its review is the best review as we can not too. It is based on our research and comparisons. After a while and when many people use these devices they can judge about our review's quality and correctness. Good Luck!
@ it still needs improvements and better specs ! But like every 1rst product is a canvas a blueprint to build the 2nd the 3rd and the rest the ones they will bring to the consumers.
Many parameters have an effect on the frame rate, the most important of which is the graphics processing power of the consoles. However, the way the console uses hardware resources, as well as the division of these resources between CPU and GPU, is also effective in better performance of games. In addition, some software problems can affect the frame rate. Lenovo may be able to fix some of the current console's problems through software updates (for the console's BIOS).
I own all but the claw and can categorically state that the Ally is a piece of crap. I cant believe for one second you didn't get paid by Asus for this video 😂... plus i get 2 hours on RE4R at 900p on the llg
Everyone may have a different experience with different devices. What is presented here is the result of simultaneous review of these handheld consoles. In addition, if Asus was going to pay for all videos similar to this video, it would have definitely gone bankrupt 😊
Thank you for sharing your information with us. OneXPlayer X1 and other similar devices and its family, while they can be used as portable device for gaming, are actually designed for other purposes. Maybe they can be placed more in the tablet computer category. A very large screen, non-ergonomic design for games, and also a very high price separate them from the category of handheld gaming consoles.
Sadly, Intel processors still can't balance power between the CPU and GPU well enough for gaming. That's why some games run as expected, but many don't perform as well as they should.
Despite the older hardware, OLED still performs well, which is due to its proper design and, of course, its proprietary operating system. However, to stay in the competitive market, it needs a major update in the next generation.
@@takdirbudi4713 ROG ally 1080p screen, 120hz, Vrr, has better processor , no limitations, can play all games in steam, can play all modern AAA games in 1080p, can play gamepass, epic games, steam, Garena, and other more platforms, can be your personals PC as you can do any productivity work or study just like a personal computer. Steam Deck has only 800p, has only 90hz, has weaker processor, cannot play all steam games, you need to see if a game is verified or playable to be able to play it, cannot play gamepass unless you dual booth it which makes the deck worse since it has weaker processor windows is too much for deck to handle, has a lot of limitations cannot play any platforms, has weaker processor so goodluck on future proofing on upcoming games, no and VRR, only good for retro games.
**WARNING** *He's lying! The claw is a waste of money! Dont be fooled!* IMO, this is an extremely disingenuous review. Anyone who has tried this handheld knows that it performs like absolute dog water. Im not sure why Ben decided to speak so hughly of this piece of complete trash. You'll have an exponentially better gami g experice using xbox game pass on your phone. I like your channel, Ben, but you either sold out to MSI to build professional relationships or for financial reasons. I wish you had not attached your name to the Claw in a positive way because personally, i can't trust your reviews on anything in the future.
Hello, We think that you have not seen this video till end. Based on our video, MSI claw is not a good option to buy. Maybe you are talking about another video on another channel !!

So should I get myself a MSI Claw or Rog Ally? In my country Claw costs about $569 and Rog Ally $549
MSI claw is not a good option. With that intel CPU, you will not get a good performance !!!

The structure is same, but because of the cooling and batterie constrains, they keep weaker than their similar models in main frame PCs
What game is that at 0:13
Starship Troopers: Terran Command
Rog ally gang
Hell yeah
Yes, it still has decent hardware.
Legion go gang
It's garbage
Imma buy one and download the most powerful game to see if it runs star citizen
