I looked into the rog ally before I got my deck a few months ago, the integration was rough and the spec difference did not make up for it. I was close to getting one, but then I read a ton of reviews and came to the conclusion that the deck was still better, even with the spec difference. I only regret not getting it sooner, it's an amazing device and has not disappointed once with any new game this far. Haven't y tried Elden Ring, but Diablo, BG3? Heel yea
Yeah, that's exactly my problem with a lot of the Deck's competitors. They're trying to out-spec the Deck, but there's a lot more that factors into a fun experience than just power. SteamOS's Game Mode might be the best UI I've ever used. I also love the Steam Deck's controls to death and could go on a very long rant about them, but I'll hold that in.
