isn’t the Deck also just like… better than those devices? like obviously they have more compute power and whatnot but everything i read about the ASUS one was that the extra hardware power meant nothing when everything was bogged down by Windows and other issues

I have both and even with all of the Ally’s jank I’ll take the Ally over the Deck any day. The extra hardware power and the VRR screen means the games I play are silky smooth.

I honestly can’t go back to the Deck.

Choice in this market is good for end users, as is competition. Both of the machines are a compromise in one way or another and different in substantial ways, so it's really just down to personal preference. I can't wait to see how this market grows over the next few years.
