Pick M3 MacBook Pro Instead of ROG Ally： Here's Why

Sold the 600-gram ROG Ally for a $1,700 base M3 MacBook Pro after peripherals made it costly and impractical. He accepts losing Red Dead Redemption 2 and Rainbow Six, valuing the MacBook’s 14-inch display, keyboard, battery, and productivity. Cult of the Lamb reached 56 FPS and Alien: Isolation worked well; Resident Evil 4 instead loaded a black screen.

He prioritizes portable productivity and travel over unrestricted gaming, presenting the tradeoff as practical.
