Many people are asking how much the ASUS ROG Ally weighs, let’s get into it.
The Steam Deck rival is a galactic sight to behold. If you’ve already figured out where to buy the Ally then you may have heard a few details about its design, and most importantly how much it weighs.
We can confirm the ROG Ally weighs a decent 608 grams. It’s a pretty impressive weight considering the powerful specs packed inside. To be precise, it runs on a 6-core, 12-thread AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme, capable of holding high FPS on some pretty demanding titles. We can also confirm that the second model of the Ally, due for a release later this year, will weight the same 608g while sporting the Ryzen Z1 CPU which packs slightly less power.
Is the ASUS ROG Ally lighter than the Steam Deck?
Enthusiasts planning to play for long hours combined with people with smaller hands can celebrate because the ASUS ROG Ally is a whole 61g lighter than the Steam Deck. This is great news if you’ve been waiting for a lightweight travel companion to play all your favourite games. Once you’ve got yourself the best case for the Ally, which is pretty lightweight, you’re all set. So, all-in-all, the ROG Ally is smaller, thinner and lighter than its rival. Though some undoubtedly will prefer the robustness offered by the Steam Deck, the Ally’s 608g will be a welcomed spec.
Creds also go to the Ally for creating a handheld that has a bigger, brighter and faster screen than the Steam Deck while keeping the weight to a minimum.
