Asus's ROG Ally handheld gaming console went on sale this week. It's basically a clone of Valve's Steam Deck, but with better specs. This little beast contains a Ryzen Z1 Extreme SoC, a 1080p 120Hz display, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. Going by a few videos on YouTube it appears capable of playing modern games at 1080p 30fps, helped by being a native Windows device so the Proton compatibility layer isn't needed. It costs $1299, which is a decent chunk of cash, but it can be used as a desktop PC when plugged into a monitor, keyboard and mouse. It's literally a laptop with a tiny screen and no keyboard. I'd love to try one of these out on my RSI riddled wrists. There's so many games I want to catch up on, but don't want to sit at my desk to play them.
