To clarify, I will be installing Windows on either device so I can use Game Pass, Epic, and many other applications. I am very familiar with Windows and I’m pretty tech savvy so that isn’t an issue.
Hey guys, I’ve been looking to get a Steam Deck for a while now and was just waiting on a new model. After looking around, I found an Ally on sale, ending up being $450, which is $100 cheaper than the base model OLED SD.
The Ally seems better in almost every regard, only coming up short with appearance, battery, and a few small things such as touchpads.
I love the look of the SD and do not like the Ally, but the Ally also runs games way better from what I can tell. I can get a skin for the Ally too.
I plan to be playing pretty much everything. Trying out AAA titles, playing indie games, 2D games, retro games, and emulating pretty much anything I can get to work. I do have a PC as well as a Switch and a PS5.
Any opinions on what I should do? The Ally is cheaper and seems nicer, I just don’t like the look and the battery doesn’t seem great at all. The SD seems perfect, just with worse performance.
Thank you for reading!

Lol. That’s not a small difference for some of us. I can’t do without these babies.
