I was thinking of buying a decent gaming laptop since i dont have any space for a pc but any good ones were out of my budget (in my country gaming stuff is super expensive) so I decided to buy a handheld and a macbook air. But I wana know if I should buy a steam deck or the rog ally. Im leaning towards the rog ally because I can play any games on it, and im going to be getting the macbook air 1-2 months after getting a handheld, so the windows operating system would be nice.

    Tbh I would save and get a gaming laptop instead, neither is a real substitute and planning on using them just to save money is a bad idea.

    Steam deck is out of the question as your sole computer as it still doesn’t have official drivers to this day for windows, sure you can download third party ones but not everything is going to work. As for the rog ally, while better in that regards it still has it’s limitations in windows (16gb shared memory, it’s alr a little weak for some games to run e.g. allan wake 2, and no option to support egpu. the xg mobile costs as much as a new pc even if it exists in your country so it’s useless with all the sw issues it has as well)
