I’ve had a rog ally since day 1 and love it but I don’t like that I only get and hour and 30 mins when I use it when I’m not near an outlet… (i always use 15 watt mode since nothing i play runs at the lowest) so I want opinions! people that do have a deck do yall get more hours out of it? games I’m currently playing are fighting games, SpongeBob rehydrated (lol), and switch games

would a steam decks battery life make my happy to take out often? especially with new efficient chip

(also most of my library are steam games)

    Steam Deck’s battery still isn’t great, but OLED should bring some improvements. I would say even with the improvements, you will still get low battery life if you are playing any AAA titles.

    If I were you and wanted to save money, I’d just get a quality portable battery bank and just wait for Steam Deck 2.

    That said, the trackpads on the Steam Deck are pretty great, I use them all the time and couldn’t imagine using the ROG Ally.

      2h at 15 Watts, 3h at 10 Watts, for people who don’t need more battery they can get 2 Watts more of power and play the same amount of time

      Or use the same TDP they used in the LCD model for their games and get even more battery
