I don't have deck just yet, but I plan to get it. I much rather buy it over something like Rog ally, cause I really appreciate it is running linux and how it has contributed to Linux gaming overall.
And, Rog ally is way more expensive, and being able to play triple A games is not important for me, I have my PC for that. I want deck to play my small indie games.
There's also the fact that the Rog Ally mainly gets higher performance by just dumping more electricity into the APU. It doesn't really help that much that the Ally can perform better if it has to give up it's portability to do so. The deck having such better power efficiency with low power games is more valuable to me than the Ally being able to drain it's battery super quick to place a poorly optimized game at mediocre quality.
