## What reviewers say

**Asus ROG Ally X** — All three whitelisted testers (Tom's Hardware, Engadget, TechPowerUp) rate the 2024 ROG Ally X the best Windows handheld at launch, praising its doubled 80Wh battery, 24GB RAM performance gains and comfier grips. All flag the $799 price and clunky Windows. A newer rival (MSI Claw 8) later out-lasted its battery. Excludes the separate 2025 Xbox Ally X. (3 sourced reviews.)

**Lenovo Legion Go** — Four whitelisted labs (Tom's Hardware, Tom's Guide, Digital Trends, Notebookcheck) tested the original 8.8-inch Legion Go (Ryzen Z1 Extreme) and agree: a class-leading bright, sharp 144Hz display and versatile detachable controllers, undercut by poor battery life, an impractical 1600p resolution, bulk, and buggy Legion Space software. This is the first-gen model, not the OLED Go 2. (4 sourced reviews.)
