The ROG Xbox Ally X and the Legion Go 2 seem to be approaching upgradability extremely differently — and it could hurt one of them in the long run

After opening a Legion Go 2, I've discovered a big difference between it and the Xbox Ally X. It seems Lenovo is clamping down on upgradability, while ASUS ROG is leaning into it.

I don't have an Xbox Ally X yet, and even if I did, I couldn't talk about it. But I am curious if Borderlands 4 might play on it, so I tried — unscientifically — to figure it out.

The Xbox Ally X is a promising collab between ASUS ROG and Microsoft, priced at a surprisingly reasonable £799.99 in the UK. Here's why I'll ditch my Steam Deck for this premium handheld.

Handheld gaming keeps expanding, and MSI's Claw 8 AI+ emerged as a powerful contender. Unfortunately, stock shortages and inflated prices leave me frustrated.

ASUS ROG's sturdy design sensibilities contrast with a shockingly high price, leaving the Bulwark Dock to undoubtedly struggle against affordable alternatives.
