Handheld gaming PC market is bigger than the Steam Deck and its growing. Once SteamOS is made available on other handheld PCs, people will be shocked at the performance difference between Steam Handhelds and the 2021 SteamDeck.
Portable you can play at the airport, on the couch ( when your kids are watching on your tv ) play on your lunch break at work it’s basically for the working dad
Honestly I prefer a pc like handheld than a console like handheld - i want a little computer in my hands that I can do mostly everything I do on my regular pc but in the shape of handheld -right now, Steam os just isn't attractive to me
hmmm soon I upgrade my storage on my Ally X to 4TB, and once Steam OS comes out....I'll dual boot Steam OS and Windows (for online multiplayer) I'd love a 5090 eGPU for my Ally X, perfect for my handheld and use as a backup PC too.
@@chrisdelgado4621 I'll wait as I need to save up for the 4tb NvME upgrade anyway later on this year might save up for the RTX 5070 eGPU so I could use my ALLY X as a backup PC should my main desktop rig die on me.
Loving the hat over your shoulder :) The ROG XG Mobile looks like a cracking idea - I already think of the Ally X as an everygame console, this just means you can supercharge it on the TV. Nice.
U hit the nail on the head there. With the steam deck. It has become a mainstream device and people won’t get to play new stuff. Unless u see more steam deck settings, in new games. Until steam deck 2. But they probably would of forgot and be in the switch 2, tax world😆😬 Red dead 2 ran like a thunderstorm was happening(base ps4), but it still looks mint and plays good(fps). Anything else, is meaningless.
Not a fan of the nitro, I’ll be getting the Ally 2. Only thing that would persuade me is if Nvidia enter the handheld market because DLSS would be perfect on a handheld
I genuinely don't understand the point of the xg mobile. The price is insane. I mean right now you can get a 4090 laptop for $2,300 brand new, and the prices will eventually do the same for the 5090 laptops. Not to mention theres not a single handheld that can take advantage of thunderbolt 5, and the bottleneck through thunderbolt 4 will make that 5090 a massive waste of money. Idk, I don't see how this is exciting.
I thought it was just me 😂 but I think overtime he will learn to tone it down a bit and have it come off more natural, and most will end up enjoying the personality if he smooth the exaggerated excitement out a bit
Keep going about "performance and value" with Steam Deck. These new handhelds are competing with the steam deck and are obviously selling. The Steam Deck is actually showing its age spec wise. Price isn't everything.
When you put the £200 DualSense Edge in contrast with the £200 Portal, that's wild! PlayStation are insane, there's zero logic 😂 Also, you're so right on the earbuds...more expensive than Apple, Samsung and Google buds! Quite frankly criminal and no reason for it!
The irony saying Sony’s stuff is wildly overpriced meanwhile 128KB is selling their water bottle for 43$ CAD + fees in their store right above the comment section 😂

@ By all means, fund your content, but there’s a difference between creating and selling something at a fair price vs. slapping your brand on a water bottle and selling for 10x more than what an equivalent item would sell for anywhere else. 2x more, sure. But at 10x more, it’s gauging.

Need to see performance of the 5090 xg mobile with the ally x.
Very curious how much of a bottleneck tb4 will be.
very, very true!
nice vid!! But that little dot on the right shoulder made me think there was a dust particle on my monitor the whole time 🤣

Can you do a EasySMXS15 vs. Mobapad M6 HD?
why do pc gamers want a handheld that's like a console when they went to pc to avoid the console experience lol
yup

@@jakkudemoff3043 same, I'm more hyped for XboxOS that backs out to normal windows without any limitations - Andy
Steam is needs to support anti-cheat before it can really takeoff. If I can’t play all my games then there’s no point.
Man I was just about to buy an ROG Ally X next month, should I wait till the Legion Go 2 now? 😅😅
Nah, get the Ally X!! Go 2 is probably a year out yet.

Bazzite is also an option if you don’t want to wait longer.

Won’t the Z1E bottleneck like hell paired with something like an RTX 5070 Ti tho?
Hopefully you have $2000 laying around. And that’s just the 5070ti 😂

Loving the content and coverage, AJ! Thanks for keeping it energetic and fun to watch! Looking forward to the next game news and podcast.
Glad you enjoy it and thank you :)
Podcast ??
We delayed it this week so we can catch up and cover everything from CES. All being well it'll be out on saturday.
Nope. It was the operating system. If I could install it on my gaming PC I would.
The go 2 is a year out! Acer will do fine as the price sinks a bit
Maybe MediaTek fixed OLED flicker
Yeah I Hope so, it would be amazing if so.

good spot!!!
I think acer would do pretty good if they upped the ram to 32gb
yeah that and the battery would make a huge difference.

Even I'm confused does the Lenovo legion go s steam version have an option for the z1e chip
yes. Z2 go (cheaper) or Z1 extreme

As long as the price of the PC handheld that high, they are mostly for hardcore gamers only.
very true
@@truenobzr They are a bargain. The real loser is Nvidia. I haven't bought an rtx anything since COVID.
