The Steam Deck has finally been surpassed — by a fork [Bazzite] of Valve’s own experience [on Asus ROG Ally X]
An Asus ROG Ally X running Bazzite has all but replaced the Steam Deck in my life.
No OLED. More expensive than a Deck. Lame.
Don’t forget the lack of touchpads! Good luck with anything that isn’t controller supported on top of that

This article is just plain bad. The author’s own conclusion contradicts the headline.
The Steam Deck has finally been surpassed
I don’t think I would personally buy an Asus ROG Ally X over a Steam Deck, at least not now.
In the end, I don’t think I would ever consider a handheld gaming PC without trackpads.
Just slop articles without much of a point except to trick people into clicking on them for ad revenue
Does it have a proper suspend/resume function for games? For me, that's pretty much the benchmark for reaching a "Steam Deck-level" experience. But I think none of the other handhelds have it.
I'm sure this is not a sponsored story. What are the Verge team doing next, building a custom PC?
I just know they'll put a completely normal amount of thermal paste on the CPU.
Avoid ASUS like the bubonic plague.
Every PC in my house except for my hypervisor has an Asus motherboard. No thanks, I'll continue using what I've used for two decades without issue, thanks.
I've had 3 of their motherboards die, one came without the USB3 header properly attached, and each time they wanted me to pay them for replacements.
I had a phone of theirs, the motherboard died and they wanted $300 for the replacement. It took 8 months for them to send the phone back to me and it was still broken, parts of the phone that were working like RGB and NFC no longer were.
No thanks I'll just wait for the Deck 2.
