    I don’t care about Asus ROG Ally just came here to watch the transition from thumbnail 😂❤
  • @thegameksk
    Legion go warranty is top class. One of my controllers stopped working. They sent me 2 new ones. They came with overnight shipping.

    I remember watching your Smach Z | GPD Win uploads like 6-7 years ago, came back across the channel recently as I was looking more into the Xbox handheld theories and the ROG Ally content. Great to see its still going, thanks for the informative videos!
  • @MrKiebitz
    Great switch from the thumbnail to the actual video! :D
  • @RFNOFFICIAL
    I love my ROG Ally it’s become a daily use machine for me, I won’t get the X but the Ally 2 I’m 100% buying on day 1
  • @yurena_v4.04
    I really LOVE your thumbnails and how they blend into the video, they stand out so much from all the other videos in the main page. 👏👏
  • That Intro!!!! lol I had to replay it a few times!!! Great work
  • @GameTechTalk
    That thumbnail!! What a clever way to transform your thumbnail into a different purpose. Loved it! Great video of course! Edit: Good on you to address the current situation too.
  • @xJohnWolfx
    Great video. Looking forward to picking up the ROG Ally X day 1.
  • @TechnicolorTube
    It's the perfect Windows gaming handheld for anyone who was on the fence about buying. I dig it because the VRR screen is flicker free with no PWM dimming. Much easier on my eyes.
  • I'm personally going to wait for the Ally 2. Not enough of a jump for me just yet. I've had the OG since November and love it! Plays everything I throw at it. I love the way things are headed with this series of handhelds. Great video BTW!

    On the ethics points: I do largely agree. But a lot of the time the issue isn't anything as blatant as direct payment, or that a reviewer technically benefits from keeping a unit. It's not that most people think a reviewer is paid to say positive things. It's that if Asus provide a unit and Lenovo doesn't, the Lenovo is less likely to be reviewed Even if reviews are mixed, a company that can afford to send out 50 review copies gets far far more press than one that can't, and mind share really is that important. You can't even consider buying a device if you've never heard of it. IMO reviewers tend to be careful not to appear too positive when they're given a review copy, so it's not that their opinions have been corrupted. It's purely a question of access
  • @cppctek
    Glad for all the improvements esp more ram and the fact that it’s faster ram too. Mw3 fans rejoice
  • @NZtechfreak
    100% agree with your sentiments on the battery improvement.
  • @scottsutton140
    I was actually going to buy the rog Ally until the customer service thing , so ended up with a legion go, which I'm glad I did.
  • @djheartbreak831
    those winks when talking about the "companies that create Hall Sensor sticks" is priceless.
  • @jc74435
    From my math you should be able to game in Turbo mode for about 2.5h. Thats just amazing. With the bigger and faster Ram, allowing for 8gb of VRAM and 16gb system ram, this thing is going to have amazing performance
