Awesome. I want to see an OLED screen and some big battery improvements.

Ideally it would be nice to see some OS improvements too but that's in Microsoft's court. Absolutely love seeing these small form factor gaming PCs grow

I think these handhelds will be the future tbh, made me fall in love with gaming again my ROG Ally

This become chore for me. Its like phone, not console or handheld. User is expected to buy upgrades like pc. This is why i'm on console/handheld, i dont have to keep update each update to stay updated :/

You don't have a PC or laptop to do work on? Even if you buy a laptop like a Macbook Air/Pro, every year or so they release a newer version, it's no different.

Edit: It really just reads like a joke post, how can it become a chore on the 2nd iteration? This literally is the very first time a new Ally is going to be released (however there are two SKUs of the original - one with a worse CPU for less money). For something to be a chore it has to happen many, many times.

Also, you are not "expected" to buy every upgrade, the original Ally still works fine, like it always has, same as the original Steam Deck. Plenty of people are skipping the OLED version, this will be no different.

Exciting! I hope they fix MicroSD issue and put in a good chunky 60wh battery in there. Also wishful thinking but a real dpad and not that 360 shit they have now. I expect them to stick to Z1E since there isn't anything much better to replace it with regardless.

This, and getting rid of the bezels around the screen. And make the sticks a little bit less loose.
Hopefully a few QOL improvements in the software/windows as well, since they said in january that the new model would "focus more on gaming"

Definitely. A 16:10 ratio with the bezels top and down gone would be pretty drastic upgrade.

I really want one at launch but it feels like you have to wait 6 months for them to "fix" it.

Symmetrical sticks or bust.
