In the midst of escalating prices due to the ongoing RAMageddon, Asus' gaming handhelds have managed to buck the trend and maintain affordable pricing. The special 20th anniversary edition of the Xbox Ally X, named the Xbox Ally X20, is slightly pricier than its standard counterpart but still offers great value for money. Preorder the ROG Xbox Ally X20 at Best Buy or Asus' booth at gamescom! The Xbox Ally X20 boasts an OLED display, TMR joysticks, and a transforming D-pad, with the core hardware remaining the same as the original - an AMD Ryzen AI Z2 Extreme processor and 24GB of memory. Initially announced as part of a bundle with the Asus ROG Xreal R1 glasses, Asus has now confirmed that the Xbox Ally X20 will also be available as a standalone handheld for $1,299. For those who want the full package, the bundle with the glasses is priced at $2,499. While this is more expensive than the existing Xbox Ally X ($999), the added OLED display might justify the extra cost. The new handheld also takes design cues from the Xbox Elite controllers, featuring a transforming D-pad and a translucent chassis with gold accents. However, the $1,200 price premium for the bundle might be hard to swallow, considering you can buy the XR glasses separately for $849. The standalone handheld is sure to appeal to gamers looking for a high-quality Windows handheld, especially as similar spec handhelds are priced closer to $2,000 in the market.
