why i HATE the ROG Ally

After roughly ten days with the £500 ROG Ally, he prefers his gaming laptop for general computing, Rainbow Six, streaming, and editing. Cities: Skylines II ran at about 30 FPS only on ultra-low settings; battery lasted 40–50 minutes, peripherals looked or sounded worse, and Burnout Paradise failed. He finds the Ally worthwhile mainly for controller-friendly games like Lies of P, but doubts traveling without the laptop despite wanting lighter luggage.

The hoped-for desktop replacement instead reinforces his dependence on the bulky laptop.
