ASUS has finally released its new handheld gaming PC, the ROG Ally X, in the Philippines. It offers a substantial boost in performance, featuring upgraded storage, RAM, and battery life.
One of the most notable improvements in the ROG Ally X is its enhanced thermal performance. New, smaller fans with thinner blades and additional exhaust vents ensure that the device runs cooler, preventing overheating and improving overall performance. This is particularly important for long gaming sessions.
The ROG Ally X also boasts upgraded controls and improved connectivity. The redesigned chassis features a more ergonomic grip and improved button placement for a more comfortable gaming experience.
Additionally, the device now includes two USB-C ports, including one Thunderbolt-compatible port, allowing wider compatibility with external accessories.
