Who it’s for / pitfalls
Good for
- People who want Xbox and PC games on a handheld and already use Game Pass
Not for
- People who want a small phone-sized device or only mobile games
Known pitfalls
- Game Pass and cloud gaming are separate subscriptions; cloud gaming is labeled Beta
- The 30% speed and 2X battery claims are versus the ROG Ally X in chosen tests
- It runs full Windows, so Steam or Epic games need their own clients installed
