Xbox ACTUALLY did it - ROG Xbox Ally X Hands-On Preview
252Having spent some time playing on the ROG Xbox Ally X at Gamescom, I came away excited about the potential of the newest premium gaming handheld, as long as Windows 11 doesn't hold it back in terms of performance.
It's official! Xbox's highly anticipated gaming handhelds, made in collaboration with ASUS ROG, are coming on Thursday, October 16. The ROG Xbox Ally X and the more budget-friendly ROG Xbox Ally will hit shelves before the festive period, and yet, Xbox isn't yet confirming the prices for the new devices.
So, what do we know? Well, quite a lot, actually. We know that the ROG Xbox Ally X will be a premium handheld option, competing against the MSI Claw 8 AI+ and the ROG Ally X, but thanks to its new AMD Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme APU, it should have the edge performance-wise, thanks to its upgraded RDNA 3.5 graphics. And that's not all, because practically all of the talk at the event was about its UI, and how similar it was to the Xbox console experience, and the fact that Microsoft has been working behind the scenes to optimise its operating system. It'll still run Windows 11, but it won't be a standard version of the software; it'll be less bloated, lighter and more optimised for gaming. That's the plan, anyway.
