Behold, the new Xbox Ally X!

It looks interesting, but does it have the performance or features to replace your Steam Deck, Ally, or any of the other handhelds in between?

[Xander RO]

Oare are rost sa imi fac iar iluzii?

At launch, the devices will be available in over 30 countries, including the U.S., UK, Japan, and more, with additional regions to follow.

E doar un skin sau e un rog ally imbunatatit?

Este un produs complet nou, care are inclusiv buton dedicat pentru Xbox si un OS special.

Microsoft doesn’t load the full Windows desktop or a bunch of background processes in this full-screen Xbox experience, putting Windows firmly in the background and freeing up more memory for games. Instead, you launch straight into the Xbox PC app, which includes all of your PC games from the Microsoft Store, Battle.net, and what Microsoft calls “other leading storefronts.”

Din păcate, și ăsta e fără OLED. I'll pass.

Asus e la noi oficial si vinde seria Ally, deci cred ca se va lansa si la noi.

[Xander RO]

Wow, tari precum Austria, Argentina, Brazilia, Chile, China, Columbia, Cehia, Grecia, Hong Kong, Ungaria, Slovacia, India, toate cu Xbox oficial, lipsesc de la lansarea initiala. Pe de alta parte primeste in wave 1 Thailanda, tara care nu are Xbox oficial. Only Microsoft could do that!
Also, am trait sa vad si ziua in care Polonia primeste un produs electronic inaintea Austriei!

M-as bucura tare mult sa ajunga si pe aici in valul 2. Ar fi primua consola cu Xbox brand pe ea care s-ar lansa oficial si in Romania.
Nu inteleg pe deplin asocierea lor cu Asus si ce anume i-a impiedicat sa-si lanseze propriul handheld doar al lor, doar sub brandul Xbox.
Om trai si om vedea, daca se lanseaza oficial si la noi, il cumpar!

[razvanrazy]

La ce preturi se speculeaza pentru consolele astea (600$ pentru normal si 1000$ pentru X)...eu cred ca o sa spun pas, mai ales fiind vorba de ROG, care scot 1 model pe an...

[paul]

O sa fie si o consola portabila proprie, despre asta se vorbeste aici.

[Xander RO]

La cat le-au incalcit, ca nu mai stie nimeni ce planuri au si pentru ce perioada, nici nu mi-am dat seama... multumesc Paul!

Sincer, daca le va merge bine cu acest Xbox Ally, nici nu cred ca vor mai scoate cealalta portabila, nu vad care ar mai fi sensul.
Inteleg ca acest Xbox Ally porneste nativ in Xbox app identica cu cea de PC, it plays everything, deci face deja tot ceea ce ar fi putut gandi Xbox pentru un handheld.

[paul]

Nu chiar, o portabila Xbox ar rula nativ jocurile de Xbox. Aceste Ally ruleaza varianta de PC, cu alternativa Xbox Cloud la unele care nu sunt portate pe PC.

[Papillon_]

Daca e adevarat si o sa fie 1000 de euro Ally X sincer e ridicol sa ceri atatia bani si sa nu oferi ecran OLED.
Ce mi se pare fain e ca o sa te poti juca jocurile de pe Steam, GOG pe langa cele de Xbox.

Tehnologia inca nu e acolo poate intr-un an, doi sa avem niste APU-uri de la AMD mai eficiente energetic si care sa aiba suport pentru FSR4.

PlayStation PC games should work on ROG Xbox Ally despite doubts

Unless Sony finds a loophole, the ROG Xbox Ally handhelds should be able to run PlayStation games at launch. That's thanks to the handhelds' compatibility with Valve's Steam storefront, allowing them to access Sony's PlayStation PC games. However, there are still a few doubts that need clearing up before we know for certain which games will work.

There's really only one source of hesitation regarding PlayStation games running on the Xbox Ally handhelds, and it comes from a point raised in a tweet from Windows Central's Jez Corden. In his post, he implies that Sony might be able to block its games from working on Microsoft's handheld as they've done something similar before with Nvidia's GeForce Now service.
In case you weren't aware, GeForce Now is a cloud streaming service that can run on multiple devices via an installed app or even directly through an internet browser (this latter option even lets some users access it via Xbox Series X|S's Microsoft Edge browser). Initially, the big sell for the service was that it let you stream your full Steam library on any device — including Sony's PlayStation games on Steam.

Display-urile OLED cu VRR consuma foarte multa energie si ar fi mult prea scumpe, chiar si pentru un device high-end ca acesta:

[Papillon_]

Nu stiu cum e pe partea de consum in schimb eu am un televizor de 50 inch LG OLED 120Hz care are VRR pentru PS5 si XSX si e superb.

[MonkY]

Stai linistit, ca un device ca acesta cu OLED si VRR, si tot ar tine bateria mult peste cat poate un Switch 2, fara OLED.
Cat despre pret, lasa-ma pe mine ca si cumparator sa spun daca e prea scump sau nu. Scoti ca si Steam, o varianta cu OLED, pentru cei care sunt dispusi sa plateasca extra. Pt. ca altfel prefer sa nu-ti cumpar nimic, decat sa aleg (din nou) un LCD ordinar, cu gri in loc de negru, cu 3-400nits, doar ca sa am VRR. Meh.

[tudort]

Eu am avut originalul ally . Nu m-am putut adapta. Am vandut si Switch 1 si Rog Ally. Acum am SteamDeck Oled si sunt super incantat. Urmatoarea consola va fi Legion probabil. Sper sa apara pana de Craciun

[FuriaAlba]

Oled e peste performanta pentru voi ?
