Rog Xbox Ally Handheld Gaming The devices are real and come these holidays

We have heard rumors for what looks like an eternity Microsoft Work with Asus’ ROG division on a portable playing device and we were confirmed during the Xbox game showcase At the Summer Game Fest. There are two variants of the pocket computer: the Rog Xbox Ally and Rog Xbox Ally X.

Microsoft did not reveal the price, but pocket computers arrive at this vacation. Details on the cost of systems, pre -orders, accessories and others are coming soon, said the company. The Xbox ally will initially be available in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzer US.

The Xbox ally is powered by the AMD Ryzen Z2 A processor, and a 16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of SSD storage. The Xbox X ally is the most powerful model. It has an extreme AMD Ryzen AI Z2 processor, 24 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage. They each have a microSD cards reader, so you will not have to worry about getting rid of owner storage options to have an additional space for your games.

The two models seem to have the same screen, a 1080p seven -inch screen, 16: 9 with a 120 Hz refresh rate and 500 nits of brightness. The anti-reflection displays will include Corning Gorilla Glass Vict and Freesync Premium support.

The two systems have “HD haptics” and have a dedicated Xbox button. The Xbox ally has analogy with room effect, while the Xbox X ally has “impulse triggers for improved control”. It looks a bit like Microsoft and Asus remove a page from the PlayStation DualSense Playbook there. Anyway, the two Xbox Ally systems have two assignable and IMU rear buttons at 6 axes – a fancy way to say that they will probably have gyro commands. Fortunately, the two pocket computers have a 3.5 mm combo audio socket, as well as Wi-Fi 6th and Bluetooth 5.4.

The Xbox ally and the Xbox X ally are exactly the same size at 290.8 x 121.5 x 50.7 mm. They each weigh more than the Nintendo Switch 2 (534 g or 1.18lbs with Joy-Con 2 attached) and the PlayStation portal (520 g or 1.15 lb). The Xbox ally is slightly heavier than the steam bridge (669g or 1.47lbs) at 670 g. The Xbox X ally is even more robust at 715 g (1.58 lb). So, these are the two chonques, but at least these handles seem more ergonomic than those of the Nintendo Switch 2 (which already climb me) or even the steam bridge.

It seems that they are both capable of broadcasting a video to a TV, as they have two USB-C ports with the DisplayPort 2.1 and Power Delivery 3.0 support. One of the USB-C ports of Xbox Ally X is compatible with Thunderbolt 4. It also has a larger battery, with a capacity of 80Wh compared to the 60Wh battery of the Xbox Ally. The two models are delivered with a load support.

ROG Ally devices naturally operate on Windows 11. Microsoft has designed a complete Xbox user interface for pocket computers.

The head of Xbox Sarah Bond says that each game included in the window will be playable on the Xbox ally, but did not specify if all these elements would natively work on the devices. The revelation trailer has also included a notable accent on Hollow knight: SilksongFor what it’s worth.
