I’ve been out of the loop - how has this device been stacking up to steam deck? (I realize the specs are much better on paper)

I recommend watching the LTT video on it. But the gist is the specs are better and you can get significantly higher FPS / performance than the steamdeck when disabling throttling, but then you basically have no battery and need to be hardwired for power.

Additionally, while you can install linux on it, there's no support from ASUS when you do (obviously) so you're forced to use Windows 11 for official support. For that reason, I personally could never use the ROG Ally.
