I just saw the ASUS handheld in the wild. It was running some FPS game pretty well.

Can anyone help me compare the two - Steam Deck OLED vs comparable ASUS version? Which do you prefer? Pros/cons?

I’m almost decided to buy the Deck OLED, but seeing that in the wild made me pause. It looks nice.

You can load windows on the steamdeck, nothing is stopping you. I actually have a Bootable microsd with windows to play gamepass games. That being said, the drivers for windows are a bit messy and setting it up is kinda a pain.

I mean if someone really wants to use XGS or EGS or games with anti cheats, ROG Ally ain't so bad, but SD OLED is definitely the champion overall as it stands. Maybe if Windows is optimised for handled usage things may change, though I doubt anybody can slam laptop chips and expect SD OLED levels of battery life and efficiency.
