Hi all! I’ve seen a few posts going either way on this, but I wanted to ask myself because of the new OLED plus a recent sale on the Ally that has come up! In Canada, the SD 512 GB is $690, while the Ally is currently on sale for $700.

I generally play AAA games, and battery life is a factor but not determinative (as I’m usually playing just around the house). Conversely, while most ofy library is on Steam, I do play some games that are on other platforms and/or use their own launchers, and my understanding is it is a bit awkward to get games with their own launchers running on the SD. Open to any suggestions and thoughts! Thanks!

    I have both systems. So close in price, for you, I’d go with more powerful system. I have original SD, ally z1 extreme, and purchased oled SD. If price so close, go with more future proof system, ally. But Sd is still great with a lot of unique features. I wanted more power to play AAA games, so ally was my choice. But that SD oled was too much for me to resist. I will give my OG sd to my daughter and introduce her that way to pc gaming on Linux as she stuck on playing iPad and switch games. Good luck on choosing!
