The ROG Ally X was released earlier this year and is well regarded as one of the most powerful handhelds in the market. It is almost like a cut-down version of a full-on gaming PC and is available for a significantly lower price.

The ROG Ally X is powered by the AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme processor, which is super powerful and almost equivalent to the Ryzen 7000 series processors on PC. In terms of GPU, you get the Radeon integrated graphics, but with RDNA 3, which is super capable of running AAA titles.

You get a 7-inch display with FHD resolution and a refresh rate of 120Hz. With a peak brightness of 500 nits, it looks great even outdoors. The handheld has a response time of 7ms and features AMD FreeSync Premium, allowing for stutter-free gameplay.

In terms of RAM and storage, you get a 12GB DDR5 RAM module along with 1TB SSD storage, which is a good combo for the price. If you find the 1TB to be limiting, you could opt for the 2TB variant too available for an additional $100.

The battery on the ROG Ally X is quite impressive, featuring an 80 Wh unit. Based on reviews, it lasts an average of 8 hours.
