Valve Steam Deck LCD 256GB
Score: 73/100
Asus ROG Xbox Ally 16GB White
Score: 75/100Rankings

The ASUS ROG Xbox Ally is a Windows 11 handheld featuring a powerful Ryzen Z2 A CPU, 16 GB RAM, and a 120 Hz 1080p IPS display. Its weight and Windows UI make it less comfortable for long handheld sessions. Ideal for gamers who want AAA performance and Xbox Game Pass on the go.

The Steam Deck LCD 256 GB offers a fast NVMe SSD and bundled accessories while retaining the same handheld PC performance as the base model. Its considerable weight and unchanged 60 Hz LCD limit portability and visual appeal. Ideal for users who need ample internal storage and don't mind a heavier device.
