Quality mobile games
First of all, it must be said that, surely, this comparison is not quite fair because in IT a year and a few months apart represent a beastly technological leap in terms of the performance that one device and another can offer. But we can’t ignore that right now Valve and ASUS models are available for purchase on the market (well, ROG Ally in reserve).
This coincidence as alternatives to play with PC consolidated requires that Let’s go over why we think ASUS ROG Ally is a better purchase Today, in front of a Steam Deck which is, in the street, the best-selling model in the world after its eruption in March 2022. So come on, we explain to you why we would buy one model rather than another.
gross power
ASUS ROG Ally is, above all, a model that currently has no rival on the market for its almost 8.6 teraflops that it is able to manage and because it is equipped with an AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor unmatched in the segment of computers in portable console format. Its powers, whether in 9 and 15v or Turbo mode, are extraordinary, with performance and frames per second in various resolutions that exceed by several points what Steam Deck is capable of achieving.
more screen
In addition to this extra power, the ASUS ROG Ally screen is a differentiator as it reaches native resolutions of 1080p, unlike Steam Deck’s 720p. It is true that in a 7-inch screen it is difficult to perceive this extra that we gain, but since it is a 120 Hz panel the differences are even more marked. So at this point the ASUS device also expires.
Enjoy all your purchases
Although the previous two points are important, this is surely the determining factor for many users who on Steam Deck They consider it too complicated to have Linux and have to stick with the different versions of Proton to run some of their games. Plus, the complication of being able to add other stores (GoG, Epic, Battle.net, Xbox, Origin, etc.) and keep them up to date and working means we can’t take advantage of most purchases we have on PC.
Here in ASUS ROG Ally you won’t have these limitations so it will be easier to enjoy this Xbox Game Pass with native installs or any other product you bought from god knows what store. And this is possible thanks to the version of Windows 11 that he has installed.
Of course, all these advantages now have a little inconvenience and this is the price: 799 dollars for the ASUS ROG Ally model which will go on sale on June 13, 120 more than the Steam Deck costs with the same 512 GB capacity. Although if you ask us if this difference is worth it? We think so. And a lot.
