Confirmed: The ASUS ROGAlly Is Real
. As of today, though, the console is now out in the wild, at least in a prototype form.
A brief showcase and rundown of the ROG Ally was first posted by the Canadian TechTuber Dave2D, who also did a side-by-side comparison, thus also providing us with a slightly more in-depth comparison between the two handhelds. Again, it needs to be pointed out that the Ally Dave had in his hands was still a prototype unit and therefore, everything from the internals to its aesthetics could change between now and its yet unconfirmed launch date.
Take the cooling of the ROG Ally as our first example. In the original announcement video, ASUS said that the console was fitted with its own Intelligent Cooling solution that is quieter than the Steam Deck, and Dave actually goes out of his way to prove that claim. In fact, he is able to quantify the difference in noise levels between the two gaming handhelds by about 16 decibels , which is a lot in terms of the coil whine.
Then there are the hardware specifications of the ROG Ally. On the outside, Dave confirms that the display is a 7-inch Full HD display but with a 16:9 aspect ratio instead of the 16:10 on the Steam Deck. Not only that, but it is also brighter at 500nits and even has a refresh rate of 120Hz. Of course, in order for it to drive what ASUS says is “double the performance” of a Steam Deck on the handheld means that the portable machine would need to have some very powerful internal hardware.
Then there’s the sordid topic of the price of the ROG Ally and, just as it is with the details of the chipset, ASUS isn’t providing any information about this either. However, the Taipei-based brand had told Dave that it would be priced “aggressively”. In other words, somewhere between the RM2000 and RM3000 mark, and on what sort of storage capacity will be available.
