Seeing the new Steam Deck OLED has got me interested in handhelds again. Looking at getting either the Ally or the Steam Deck. For my use case it’s going to never be docked at all. I already have a Gaming PC with some high specs. I need something for on the go or to use around my house. I want to be able to emulate Switches games and also play things like Persona, Dragon Quest, Yakuza, and games like Sekiro, Lies of P, Elden ring
Using the Ally docked (or tethered to a wall) to get much better performance is its only real selling point. Deck OLED definitely, if you want to be portable. The Deck OLED actually matches or even beats the Ally in performance at the same 15W power envelope, and gets nearly 2-3 times the battery life while doing it.
